I am attempting to give up, or at least cut down, on my caffeine consumption. This time two years ago I never really bothered with tea/coffee but a couple of years doing markets got me hooked on coffee, and I drink coke too. A lot of people are fine when they drink it but I get really hyper, and then crash horribly, and in the new year I noticed my sleeping pattern was all out of whack. Something had to give, and after a few sleepless nights I decided coffee and coke just aren't worth it. This marks day 4 totally clean, I'm tired and cranky but I'm sure it will be worth it....right?

As a student I didn't drink coffee as it was more expensive than tea! Then I discovered that an unexpected coffee would keep me awake for 48 hours at a stretch. So other than one rogue cup of coffee drunk by accident, no coffee for the last ten or more years.
ReplyDeleteI drink neither and delight in both pointing out the behaviours of others and how it is a cliché of sorts, and in the definite cliché of feeling somehow special when I do this.
ReplyDeleteI guess what I'm saying is, not drinking tea or coffee has not made me a better person.
A lot of athletes swear by it.
