oldwomanc6 38 #3 January 9, 2016 I gave up caffeine about 15 years ago. The first month sucked BIG TIME! This was even after going half-caff for some time. I don't miss it now, except for iced tea at restaurants. Nobody brews decaf for iced. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlanS 1 #5 January 9, 2016 oldwomanc6 I gave up caffeine about 15 years ago. The first month sucked BIG TIME! This was even after going half-caff for some time. I don't miss it now, except for iced tea at restaurants. Nobody brews decaf for iced. I also gave it up a long time ago. I never liked the feeling of being addicted or dependent on something and the bitter taste didn't appeal to me that much. It wasn't easy stopping but once I did I was glad it was over. Try making exercise a part of you early morning routine. That is a healthy alternative. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trafficdiver 8 #6 January 9, 2016 I have not had a cigarette or a coffee in over 15 years. The thought of either disgusts me now (although I still like the smell of ONE cigarette being smoked near me). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phillbo 11 #7 January 9, 2016 I've never been a big caffeine person. I'll drink a cup of coffee on occasions (early morning cruise on the boat) and maybe 3 cokes a year. I hear you can get headaches if you quit too fast. You may want to taper off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stumpy 283 #8 January 9, 2016 Just go to starbucks. That should put you off coffee.Never try to eat more than you can lift Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingRhenquest 1 #9 January 9, 2016 I did that once. Two weeks of the worst headaches I've ever had, occasional narcolepsy and nightmares. Felt great for a few months until I had to stay up late one night and got the coffee monkey back on my back.I'm trying to teach myself how to set things on fire with my mind. Hey... is it hot in here? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,318 #12 January 9, 2016 Likewise. I don't regret it at all. Was always pretty sensitive to caffeine; tea and myself is plenty. Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

Amazon 7 #16 January 10, 2016 oldwomanc6 What the heck are V8 energy juices? http://www.livestrong.com/article/409207-is-v8-juice-good-for-you/ Like everything it seems.. too much sugar and carbs for my tastes. And I am in IT we have 3 major food groups... CAFFIENE PIZZA DOUGHNUTS And since I have kicked the carb habit.... no pizza or donuts for moi thanks and life without coffee would be a sad sad life.

MikeJD 0 #18 January 10, 2016 I guess coffee can help me out at the start of the workday, but if I'm busy enough then I just forget to drink it anyway and I can't say I really miss it. I very rarely drink more than one cup a day in any case. I'd have a much harder time giving up tea. I do love tea. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FlyingRhenquest 1 #21 January 10, 2016 Arrr! I got the coffee monkey on me back! If you're going to do it anyway, this is by far the best coffee I've ever had. I order it by the kilogram and it usually sets me back about $60. Last time I ordered some, they didn't have any on hand and roasted a batch up for me the day before I picked it up. Yum!I'm trying to teach myself how to set things on fire with my mind. Hey... is it hot in here? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
