stop drinking coffee

i don’t mind if i have a coffee now and then, just in moderation..

I tried the cold turkey thing, but half way through the day I had a massive headache and I was snapping at everyone (I was not a fun person to be around). I finally decided I couldn’t quit it all together, and got myself some black tea. I don’t feel the rush of the caffeine high anymore, it really just provides enough to wake me up and keep me from biting people’s heads off – which is a good thing.

So I think I can call this goal done!

My plan is to do a 10 day detox and in the process stop drinking coffee. It’ll be hard. I’ve tried going without it in the morning before and it usually leaves me with no energy and feeling a little grumpy. But I went to the doctor last week and she says I really need to stop so I guess I have no choice. I’ll miss drinking it in the morning though.

So I’m replacing coffee with tea…hopefully it works, but mornings will be harder for awhile…

ehhh this one is a piece of cake, i havent even thought about coffee, im gonna say this one is DONE!

this goal is goin good too! havent had a sip, but sometimes i really want some, but ive learned to resist!

yeah, I’m a little caffeine dependant… plus I think all the dairy & sugar I dump in there are helping make me fat. I think I’ll switch over to decaf iced tea this summer, sans sugar if I feel like something special.

ok so this has also been doin good, i havent had one sip of coffee all week!

ok so im 15 and i really want to stop drinking coffee especially since its summer, and i’ll have more time to drink it…i like it but im only 5’4 and i wanna grow another inch or two, and i heard it stunts ur growth…

It’s been one month sans caffeine and so I’m calling this “done”. Really don’t think I’ll go back to drinking coffee. Still have this strange dependency on decaf – it’s funny that it has turned out to be the morning ritual that is hard to break, not the caffeine addiction. So maybe I’ll try herbal tea instead. At any rate, I highly recommend tapering off instead of going cold turkey – I managed to avoid the nasty withdrawal headaches that way. Really never thought I could do this, but now I feel like anything is possible!
