I drink diet coke. I also do decaf coffee in the am with sugar free creamer. It has some cals in it but I feel like it can't raise my blood sugar too much, and if it does, I feel like it will fall even lower by the time I eat again. I do pep tea and red raspberry leaf tea too!
I am doing diet coke as well as double peppermint tea (I let two bags steep in 8 oz. of water) that is sweetened with two packets of equal. I usually do two cokes and one tea a day or viceversa.
I have no idea where the pasta thread was! Mocha was right though, get the 'normal' one without the vitamins and make sure you're sticking with your daily allowances.
I drank LOADS of diet coke when I was swaying! Also 2 coffees with a little milk and sweetener in the mornings.
Ok so I have a question also about the soda. LoL.
I wanted to know if 1 a day is ok, like the regular one. It is the 90 calorie one enough to give me a bit of a kick. Would I eat this while eating a meal?
Also what do we want our sugars at??
Aside that tomorrow af is supposed to be completely gone! Can't wait to start. Yesterday was my first full day on the le diet and I did amazing with my sodium and protein and fat intake. I had sodium at 900, fat was I believe 25, and I think if I am correct my protein was 38.. and my cals were at 1,400

I see some ladies are drinking peppermint tea while taking vitex and saw palmetto. I thought you weren't supposed to do this- forget why but I know I read this. Can someone chime in....
Both peppermint tea and Saw Palmetto lower testosterone, so I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to do both - at least not the 3 cups of peppermint tea a day recommended. Vitex and peppermint tea are ok, though.
That's what I thought. How are you mocha? Has it sunk in u got your bfp? I knew this was your month!
It's starting to become more real. I made my first midwife appt, which will be February 22nd, and it felt good to be able to write something on the calendar. They also said they could order me an u/s at 8 weeks if I want to check for a heartbeat, which is waaaay better than having to wait until my 11 week u/s.
