As far as supplementation goes, I am not going to be taking any hot rox. I am drinking a large amount of green tea (i brew 64 oz with 2 tea bags each morning). I'm very used to drinking 2-3 cups of coffee and I have stopped that now that I drink all this tea...I don't think its the caffeine in the tea (which I usually finish hours before bed, anyway).
I just checked out that diet real quick... To follow it to the letter would require taking 8 supplements, lol.

Are you doing this as a temporary crash diet to drop a bunch of fat for a target date (muscle be damned), or are you planning on living like this? That's the big question. If you're just gonna crash towards a target, it's not a bad plan, but it's a little low on the protein side. Also, the refeeds are too infrequent, and an all-out all-day binge is suggested every 14th day. Sounds like a good way to foster an eating disorder or two. I'd opt for something more linear & less extreme if you want the results to last.
