    Yesterday i read that there’s a link between caffeine and hormones so I decided to scale way back on caffeine. But then this morning i had a cup of coffee at 5 and again at 7:30 and then 9:30. Then i had iced coffee at 1:30. And 3:30. So i guess you could say my first day of less caffeine was a breeze

    This means tomorrow if you just have coffee at 5 and 7:30 then 1:30 and 3:30 you're continuing to cut back. Good job!

    Thanks! I figured having 7 times my normal amount would make me so tired of coffee that I would never want any again. I can’t wait to see if it worked!

    Is the next step to stay up all night waiting to see if it worked??

    Well i read that melatonin can jack up your hormones so I’m cutting back on that too. I don’t foresee any difficulty sleeping what with my new Easy Quit Method

    Might I suggest a rubber mallet

    I’ve found a regular one works MUCH better.

    ...for crushing melatonin pills to a fine powder, I assume that’s what you’re suggesting?

    Yes, I was thinking that a concoction of crushed melatonin and coffee beans would create a delightfully balanced topping for a dessert

    Keep in mind that I don’t claim to know any of the science behind it and it was just the tipping point since I already know i should cutback on caffeine

    But

    There is allegedly a connection between caffeine and cysts. More with breast cysts but maybe ovarian cysts as well?

    I'm more than willing to risk an ovarian cyst or two for several cups of coffee each and every day.

    Could you maybe possibly point me in the right direction of what it was you read? I'm interested!

    Avid caffeine intake since I was a kid... and I have cysts. Go figure. :laugh:

    Horror/thriller movies where the main character's point-of-view includes hallucinations and it's not made clear what's hallucination and what's real almost always leaves me disinterested and sometimes annoyed

    When you take a bite and for some reason...your hand comes off the fork but your mouth doesn't let go. So you are left there with a fork sticking out of your face. Only happens when at restaraunts too.

    I don't know if this is the right article, but I Googled and picked one of the most recent ones and this does talk about breast and ovarian cysts.

    I know you mentioned possible PCOS somewhere and it appears that caffeine definitely doesn't help that
