Step 1 Sole Source Confused about drinks advice?

[xZNRx]

Hello

I'm new to this site. I've been on the Cambridge Diet for 3wks now and have stuck to water only - drink wise - throughout.

After a little look around this forum, it seems there are mixed views about allowing the odd black tea / coffee or caffiene free coke? Having looked at the Cambridge website FAQs, it states that these are ok if you really can't cut them out altogether....

Im really looking for a little variety as I'm sticking to shakes only. What are your views? Did you drink anything other than water? Did it impact on weight loss?

Any help appreciated. Thank you

I drink peppermint tea, fizzy water, bouillon veggie stock. I'd avoid coke like the plague.

Black tea and coffee are fine but yes the coke issue is one I have found, some say its fine some say not too lol, try it and see if it impacts your weight loss? I also have seen people to lose weight whilst snacking on baby bell lights too, I think it depends on how much and how quick you want to lose. Fruit teas are fine too, I do sole source plus generally as I like my milk and small amounts of food. Keep going x

Its not caffeine in coke you need to avoid its citric acid

Thanks all. I guess as it was in their own FAQs, this is what confused me.

Will perhaps try a black tea. I miss tea!

I use green, mint and nettle tea and, of course, plain old water. Sometimes I'll have a bottle of sparkling just to get me really excited!
