I couldn't leave coffee.  I'd grind that shit down to a powder and snort it off the back of a toilet seat if that's what I had to do to get it.

Coffee is kinda next on my list of vices to kick. It would save me a fortune, and I could dump this espresso maker and coffee grinder which would clear a ton of surface space in my kitchen. I love it but I could easily live without it. As it is, I rarely have more than one strong cup in the morning.

I have like 2-3 cups of coffee and maybe 3-4 cups of tea. It's too much.

I weaned myself off caffeinated coffee a few years back, but it slowly crept its way back into my life. I'm a useless bag of shit without that initial kick in the morning. Now I just make sure I limit myself to no more than one pot a day.

I love coffee, but I typically have it only once or twice a week.

My man! :dap

Are there donuts involved? Nothing powers me up more than the cups of coffee in the morning at home, followed by an early appearance at work, so I go to Mr. Donuts, have two more cups there AND A SUGARBOMB. After that, I feel like I can fight crime.

So far it's going to plan. I got the headaches but the headaches seem to be wearing off. I find myself nodding off though.
I think I now need to eat a proper breakfast to make up having two coffees in the morning so I don't run out of puff.

I never really got the caffeine buzz people talked about with coffee and energy drinks.  I wonder if that's a problem.

Do you drink a lot of soda? Soon as I stopped drinking soda I had coffee once and it put some wheels on me.

Coffee is one of those things that I enjoy more the less have it, so I don't drink a lot of it. Maybe once a week.

I drink soda maybe a few times a week.

Soda is really bad for you. It's nothing but corn syrup with enough carbonated water added to it to make it less viscous.

You could just drink diet.  Tastes better too imo.

I try to stay away from the donuts, otherwise I'd have to fight crime wearing sweatpants. Nobody wants to see that. Gotta watch my curves!

no tea, no coffee. Though I keep forgetting that non-cola drinks have caffeine.
