Can I drink caffeine while doing Atkins?

Atkins : Frequently Asked Questions - Food and Drink
Caffeine in the form of coffee, tea and cola drinks should be consumed in moderation, meaning about one or two cups a day. If you are particularly sensitive to caffeine, it would be a good idea to move from the high-octane stuff to decaf. Gradually add decaf to your full-force brew until you are drinking straight decaf, which you can enjoy with cream. Water-processed decaf is preferable because it does not use chemicals, as other decaffeinating processes do. Green tea is another healthy option.
