Hi there. i am a fellow NBEer and a coffee addict.I don't drink many sodas at all,and when i do drink those,it is Sprite or Ginger Ale 90% of the time. I eat healthy for the most part. I eat a fairly balanced amount of everything.I eat more fruit than sweets,but I make awesome New York style cheesecakes and those are a weakness of mine,so I try not to make them too often.
Anyway- i have not found it necessary to really change what I eat.Except I try to add more boobie foods.I have been successful at NBE and am now continuing my program again to get even bigger and get to my goal.Keep in mind I also smoke,and I am not recommending anyone to smoke if they don't,but it is not supposed to be good for NBE either,but I still grew a little more than a cup size.
Here's the thing with coffee: you can still drink it,but keep it atleast an hour away from taking herbs.I do not take my herbs until after lunch,so I still indulge in my coffee.I take my herbs,then if it's been over an hour and I feel like coffee or a coffee drink,I do not deny myself. You can also drink decaffinated coffee or teas if you want to totally cut out caffeine. Keep in mind that if you are used to drinking caffeine in any form daily,you will develop headaches from caffeine withdrawals.So,if you are going to cut it out,do it gradually.
