    Green Tea?

    I am new to this site. I bought Atkins cookbook and I start Atkins journey two days ago for next 14 days Induction. I still drink hot caffeine green tea.

    Is it okay if I still drink it and stay on 14 days Induction?

    Fill in would be great helpful!

    Re: Green Tea?

    It's probably best if you get off the caffeine now. A lot of people still have caffeine for a while, though. Nobody will kick you off the board if you don't give it up now, but you might try replacing it with caffeine free one cup at a time over a few weeks to ween yourself off. Green tea has a lot of good properties, so it's not the worst thing in the world. Caffeine does cause cravings in some people, so that's the reason it's not recommended.

    Did you get the Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution (2002)? That's the version we go by here.

    Best of luck with the Atkins way of life! Eat, enjoy and check in often with us.

      You can get decaffeinated green tea too.
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
      Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

          Decaf green tea is actually very good, unlike some other decaf teas. Amazingly, I can get it here in Italy!

            hey guys... is the ONLY reason not to drink coffee/caffeen because it causes you to crave things?

            As in, say you had willpower of steel, would caffein actually effect your weight loss (given you ate the same)?

            Thanks
