Hello,

I am just now starting the south beach diet. I am worried about being bored to death of the drink choices, milk, tea and water? I can't do it! Plus I hate milk. Is crystal light okay for a phase 1 beverage?

Also, in the mornings I either have decaf tea with sugar substitute added (equal I think) or I have the powerdered hot chocolate. Are either of these okay for phase 1 or should I lay off.

The Green Teas have come a long way. There is more varieties of it. I can drink those but I cannot drink stuff with aspartame which gives me migraines. Green tea is good.

Yes, I've been drinking a peach flavored green tea by Bigelow that's yummy.

Oh I see the Bigelow's all the time, didn't know if those were okay. I will have to pick some up. Thanks Christa and Cathy.
