Does anyone know what we can drink in the morning on the LE diet?

I am happy to miss breakfast and have a late lunch but what can I drink during this time? Just water? Coffee?

What I really really want to know is if I can have mug of tea with milk?!

Thanks Eleena2014 - I was worried as I know with a traditional fast anything over than water would be bad so wanted to make sure a nice big mug of strong milky tea wouldn't raise my blood sugar enough to knock out the benefits from not eating breakfast :-)

Limit the milk, but water, tea and coffee are all fine to replace your traditional breakfast. I drank a total of 3/4 c. of whole milk with 3 cups of coffee. The really important thing is to leave out the sugar or use artificial sweeteners that won't cause your blood sugar to rise.

Anything sugar free is fine.

I believe coffee to be better than tea. Got nothing to back that up other than my own experience but that is just my gut instinct.

Technically you should avoid anythign in the coffee BUT that having been said, many of us, myself included have had stuff in our coffee (I even had sugar in mine, which is a bit of a no-no) and still gotten girls. There just isn't enough IN cofffee with milk and even sugar, to sway for most of us.
