Hi there, I'd say, like Casey, that you should adhere 100% at first. Once you're feeling better & you have some normalcy, you can start trying things in moderation & seeing how your body reacts. Everyone's different, so there's no steadfast answer. Speaking for myself, after years of feeling crappy everyday, I rarely step outside the 'safe' territory. I did try some caffeine free soda a couple of weeks ago & I felt OK, but I'd rather have that as the 'treat' every now and then and not try to make it a habit. It's all up to you. I'm willing to do whatever I have to to feel 'normal' again. Good luck with however you choose to proceed with your diet!
