Default OMFG! I'm giving up coffee.

Well, caffeine in general. I rarely drink soda so it's mainly just coffee for me. It will be hard because those that know me know I am a coffee fahreak!

Anyone done this before?

I have read that I should cut down slowly- I am admittedly addicted and have heard very bad things can happen so I am going about it gradually. Either switching a few cups to decaf or tea and then herbal tea until 100% caffeine free or cold turkey and hating it for a few days.

I could also switch to grain coffee but I heard that most of them are nasty. Teeccino is supposed to be okay. Anyone try it?

Here on their website is some caffeine effects:

Anyway, I have always thought it an okay boost, antioxidant and appetite curber but apparently it just isn't worth it. I really get tired if I don't have any- plus the headaches and trouble sleeping soundly. Plus I had no idea how it effects your mood or body.



I am also switching out the sugar to Splenda so that will be fun.

Any advice or knowledge on the subject? Anyone wanna do it with me?:nudge nudge:
