    I am trying to curb my Diet coke habit now i have managed (mostly) to knock the sugar intake on the head.

    I just couldn't even consider doing them both together. I would just go into melt down.

    So respect, for doing sugar and caffeine at once. :D

    You are all making me feel really guilty. I have a massive chocolate addiction plus wine. Yes I know how bad it all is for me. I should really stop it all now.:(

    Well done to you all for your restraint and will power.:A

    You are setting an example for me to follow - thank you :j

    I've just stopped with sugar in my tea after 28+ years.... Don't drink fizzy drinks but I'm not sure I enjoy tea quite as much but at least I've gone 3 weeks without sugar

    I did that too but tea just doesn't taste the same now. I have changed to drinking decaff coffee as I have 1 sugar in that;)

    I did sugar and caffeine at the same time about 5 years ago. The headache was a killer. Came off low carb when I got pregnant with my daughter and couldn't stomach protein at all. Never went back to caffeine. Have up carbs again a week ago and was in bed by 8:30pm that day with a killer headache! Only lasted a few hours though and all good now. :D

    Oh wine. That's my downfall :( I think I might be able to give up sugar but I'd struggle with caffeine and wine. I vowed to give up alcohol until July this year. Uh uh. I got through January before I caved. I'm in a stressful job though!
