Hi Jersybeene,
This is the second post from you about this. I had responded to the other one so I want be sure that everyone sees the response. Here it is:
I never recommended that you don't drink tea. I gave advice to someone who was having a problem with constipation. This person drank a lot of tea and wanted to know if that could impact their constipation. The advice was to cut back and see if that helped, but was never to not drink tea. Let me be clear to everyone, tea is a good thing to drink and you do NOT need to cut it out of your plan. Be sure to count any calories from things that you add to your tea in your plan.
I hope that everyone is clear on this now,
