I grew up drinking that wonderful nectar of the

take action, I stopped drinking anything sweetened
with sugar and lost 100 pounds in two months. I
still drink iced tea, rarely sugar sweetened but
usually sweetened with artificial sweetener. My
blood sugar stays in the normal range without
medication or insulin. ^_^


When I was a teenager, I used to drink iced tea
almost exclusively. I was so proud that it didn't
affect me. What I could not see at the time was
how I was awake till 1 to 2 Am every night, and
how sleepy I was in school.

Now that I drink nearly no caffeine, my sleep pattern
is much better.


I try to never eat or drink anything with caffeine in it after 4pm!
