Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Ya Think?:fdance: I swear if I grew up in a different place or circumstance I would have been a crack whore.:OWNED:

Last night I went to bed with the worst headache. I fell asleep in a fetal postition under blankets rubbing and pressing my head (I know I am going to get a pimple.:rant: ) It was awful.

But I fell asleep 2 hours before I normally do and woke up at 5:00AM feeling great! (Washed my face and rubbed alcohol on my forehead.) Like I used too. In a great mood. My eyes aren't puffy either.

I had a cup of coffee and did some stationary toning excercises and I could feel it burn more. I did more reps becauseI had more energy. Love it.

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

I'm about to go make a big cup of Cafe Du Monde coffee. You know the that stuff - real rich french coffee, with chickory in it. I'm going to load it up with sweetened condensed milk too.

YUMM.

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Whoo Hoo! I just had myself a nice Grande Chai Latte from Starbucks. mmm. gooood.

I'm gonna fire me up a Vietnamese style iced-coffee this afternoon. But before that I'm gonna do good cup of Ti Kuan Yin, sort of break before I get back to the caffeine binge-a-thon.

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

I'm drinking de-caff lemonade iced tea. Ummm......

You know she's going to go totally agro.:giggling:

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Scary!

She's too sick to RAARRRR!!!:(

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Good luck on quitting the coffee routine. I think i need to go to de-caff myself. I only drink a couple of cups in the morning but for years it makes me pissed off about 9am 'ish . I just thought i was born that way getting grumpy at my employees and beating the snot out of whatever i was doing at the time. But i have noticed if i dont drink the two cups on any given day , i am calm that morning. (Weird how it affects your brain) But last week was the last straw. I was trying to print out a invoice on wifeys computer when the thing wouldnt let me print what i was typing. I put my size 11 boot through the front of the hard drive , picked up the flat screen monitor over my head and slammed it to pieces on the counter and totally trashed the keyboard throwing it across the office. Theres $1100 up in flames . Thats just one episode, i have boomeranged more cell phones than a javalin thrower. And on and on and on. So anyways i dont know if coffee is good or bad for you. BUt i believe its bad for me. So i am going over to de-caff. Good luck.

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Poor thing.:(

Yeah, I was not mean but stressed out easily and held back a lot.

I found that one cup of the brewed coffee I was making had 135mg of caffeine in it. A mountain dew has 55mg. Holy crap! So I was having like 14 or 18 or so Mountain Dews a day.:eek:

A cup of tea has about half the caffeine in coffee so I have been subsituting with that and not drinking anything caffeinated after 2.

Good Luck. I have read a lot of good advice lately. Here is a good link from a blogger that had given it up.

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Wow. I didn't notice until you brought it up.

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

I didn't change anything here either.:giggling:

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Um..... Right click and saved! :D

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Yeah, whatever. I just took a look at the original. Man you are good.:eek::giggling:

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Cirlce K now has this "Superjavaalert" Coffee... damn it is so good, that I don't need the RedBull as a chaser.

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

How the hell did you chop that picture like that? That's a REALLY good job. Almost looks human.:jump:

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

One whole pot of coffee in the morning while I'm getting the kids ready for the day. After it's gone I don't have any more. If I drink it in the afternoon it keeps me awake at night. My favorite flavor of coffee, Tully's, went to $9.48 per pound!:mad: :mad: Now I'm reduced to taste testing Foldgers and I'M HIGHLY IRRITATED. I CAN'T IMAGINE HAVING TO QUIT!:rant: I CAN'T EVEN TALK ABOUT IT!

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

The Pale GheyRider is coming to steal your coffee.:jump:

Things are so much better now that she's not so sick.:D

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

CP,
Try some lapsang souchong tea. That's stuff is good.

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

I'm turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think so.....:D

I am doing fine. I have just been really sick, I need it to function so badly right now. But I haven't given in. I have cut my use to a 1/3 of what I used to drink and never at night. Sleeping like a snotty baby........:D A cup or two of tea is great, I could probably do it exclusively but I don't want to right now.

I dunno if it is cutting out the sugar or the caffiene. Both I suppose. When I feel better I will hopefully feel great.:)

No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women
No fun, no sin, no coffee, no wonder its dark
Everyone around me is a total stranger
Everyone avoids me like a psyched lone-ranger everyone

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

OK, Aubs. We got it.

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

I'm thinking you need an IV drip. :D

Oops, sorry, I meant to post this

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Just hang in there CP! :)

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

coffee good
work bad
got to have both to make it so shoot me now
What about coffee in the morning followed up by a a highball of energy drink with a coke chaser...
better then crack or smack:beerchug:
no beer gut, coffee gut

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Bully you are a Venti Turd.:fdance:

Thank you doc.:)

Wull, that's the thing about the gut. For women, caffeine increases estrogen which in turn, theoretically causes you to gain weight it the hips (and be more moody than usual at certain times). And no studies support that it helps you lose weight so it was a huge factor for me.:D I dunno about manfolk.

Re: OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.
 

Reminds me of that old commercial.

"I do coke so I can work harder, so I can make more money, so I can do more coke, so I can work harder, so I can make more money, so I can do more coke, so I.........."
