Ice tea on lion diet


(Gary Landau) #1

Fell off the wagon after almost 3 years on carnivore and put some weight/fat . Went Lion on Febuary 16 and down 10lb .
I have a 45 year addiction to diet coke and as of yesterday I’m doing unsweetened ice tea . Is that a problem on the lion diet ?

Even Amber O’Hearn who is a well known proponent of the carnivore diet drinks coffee, so I think you are probably okay with tea.

I’m not a purist, but here’s what I’d say even when the purists say no, it’s not all right If you’re feeling well and losing weight better than you did on diet coke, it’s a win. My only hesitation is the caffeine and I hope you’re able to stop at noon so it doesn’t disrupt your sleep. Can you find an iced tea you like that doesn’t caffeine for the afternoons and evenings? (All this assuming you’re now drinking black iced tea.). Maybe you can find a tea that doesn’t have any caffeine. Though I know it’s easier said than done.

It doesn’t effect my sleep . I’m pretty sure diet Coke has a lot more caffeine than ice tea . As far as a purist go, I’ll never be one,but I’m close enough :grin:
