So i have given up Coffee and Tea
Discussion
For no other reason as i want to cut down on sugar intake, and caffeine consumption
I used to have 2+ spoons of sugar in my "hot drink" i cut that down to 1 around 3 years ago, i have tried to go to zero but i would rather go without.
So last monday i went cold turkey, it was a strange feeling as for the first few days i was craving coffee, well i think i was but i think i was craving the sugar in it.
A week and a day later the craving has gone but now i find myself sort of at a loose end, hard to explain i think it is routine. Like today had a busy day organizing builders and came into the kitchen to have lunch and put the kettle on automatically!, in the morning i used to always have a coffee with my breakfast, i now feel odd without have it, sort of lost.
I gave up pop fizzy or other pop many years ago so only drink water which to be honest is boring i know.
Hard to put across my point, but i feel like someone who is trying to give up smoking and uses a fake plastic cigarette to curb the craving except i am not sure what to turn to?
Don't like green teas or such, have thought about cup a soup's but they have more sugar in them than the one spoon i am avoiding.
Anyone else given up caffeine
