    You dont need caffeine subs, the idea is you get off your addiction, yes you'll suffer some headaches, but its worth going through!

    quick snacks? cheese sticks, celery filled with cream cheese, pepperoni, chicken drumstick, chicken wings, check out the snack section of the board theres tonnes in there!

      Welcome, you will do great. Emma is absolutely right. Good Luck.

      What I know:
      1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
      2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
      3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
      4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.

        You'll find that the frequent trips to the bathroom will keep you awake
        I quit coffee the first time I did Atkins, then added it back gradually and found it did not affect my loss. If I were you (and I'm not) I'd cut the caffeine for induction as Atkins suggests, then, if you need/want, add it back gradually. I made the switch the Decaf, and then slowly added back high-test to my decaf until I was sure it wasn't going to affect me.

            LOL. Well, if they arrest you, tell them you need a cell with a private potty

              I just wanted to add that the energy boost you get once you clean your system of all the addicitons and find yourself loving ketosis will be more then enough to compensate for that missing Coffee!

                During the day, that really does work, but since I've been working nights, it doesn't. It's like my body still produces melatonin and says "sleep" at night ,no matter what I do. Coffee really is a necessity now.
