    its going to take me a while to change my habits but I am going to do it

    thanks for help
  • I don't see why you can't have a decaf coffee later at night especially if it makes you feel satisfied. I often have an herbal tea with diet sugar and a little fat free milke and enjoy it a lot.
  • Yes, decaf is OK to have and you get a 50 calorie treat at night also.

    If you drink a cup of regular coffee or tea you need to drink an extra glass of water for each cup with caffiene.

  • Fat Free Swiss Miss French Vanilla Hot Chocolate hits the calorie req's for the bedtime snack... just be sure you can have the sugar. Yum!
  • Yes, the coffee or tea is fine!
  • Neither - caffeine free diet Coke!

    OK, just kidding. I don't drink coffee or tea. But I would think decaf as long as you aren't putting calories in it should be more than OK.
  • I'm sure it's ok. Just make sure that you dont use any creamer and like splenda or equal.
