Oh man I am a sucker for coffee, tea, coke and chocolate!
On the days I work the barista makes me a free coffee so I try to just keep it to that, maybe a cup of tea or coke later on..
I think my rule for myself is two things a day- either a coke and a tea, coffee and a chocolate, tea and chocolate etc... Not sure what I'll do once UTD, probably cut it down to one treat instead of two.. hopefully it's not too hard lol!
I'm definitely an everything in moderation kinda person. Except the complete no-no's lol.

I switched to decaf when we started trying as I heard caffeine can affect fertility and also might have a part to play in early miscarriage. But then I read heard that they use so many chemicals to take the caffeine out of coffee that it freaked me out so I stopped that too.

I read this also so thats why I stay clear of decaf! |
Nescafe gold uses the swiss water method to remove caffiene, its the only instant I know of to steer away from chemicals, many proper coffees (beans etc) use that method too.
Also caffiene is added into coke, so isn't a by-product of the drink (like say with coffee), I know Phoenix cola doesn't add any. Might help with cravings

And you can get caffeine-free actual coke, if you're like me and prefer the taste of the 'Coke' brand. It only comes in the 1.5l bottles, though, which I'd never get through before they went flat. I still bought it for a treat sometimes

My GP also advised me to limit my coffee and I'm a lover of the daily ritual.
So, I did a bit of research (including about how they decaffeinate the stuff) and for you ladies, my recommendation:
http://www.coffeesupremeshop.com/sulawesi-water-decaf.html
This is great stuff. Swiss Water Processed, so no nasty chemicals. You can buy it as beans, grind it yourself and make your own delicious, very low caffeine coffee. And they deliver nationwide :-) (Lucky me, I work about 5 minutes walk from their shop!)
BTW I use one of these (http://www.coffeesupremeshop.com/devices/filters/swissgold-coffee-filter-one-cup.html) at work and it makes the cleanest most delicious tasting cup!
Happy to help (and no, I don't work there! Just a faithful customer :-))

I'm a complete coke addict, well coke zero addict anyway. But like Hopes said you can get caffeine free which satisfies my cravings. I think the recommendations are to have less than 200mg a day, which is quite a few cans of coke anyway, i'm just trying to be extra good!
