    That sucks some of you guys go into withdrawal if you don't have coffee for an extended period of time. Am I seeing something wrong here.

    I drink at least three cups of coffee every morning -- regular with flavored creamer. I could give it up, but it wouldn't be pretty.

    I have nothing but coffee all day. It's 2 calories for me & a green coffee at that. Do I look like I care if it's decaf? With all the caffeine I have during the day it's amazing I'm not asleep. It does nothing for me, never has. I just like the taste

    How many cups in the morning? and regular or decafe?

    Also if you had to give up coffee for a month and just drink plain water in the morning could you survey?

    Yup I could and have surveyed.... If you mean survive... Yes I could do that too... Now would I like it... Oh heck no.

    I could survive but my family would be begging me to drink coffee. I'm a grouch if I don't have my morning dose. I drink two cups of regular.

    I use to have about 3 cups a day, with two sweet and lows and international delight french vanilla cream. I now have 1 cup of coffee a day with two sweet and lows but changed to sugar free french vanilla. It was after I begin logging hat I realized how much sugar and calories I was actually drinking. Granted it wasn't huge but I think I would rather eat my calories then drink them lol Plus I try to keep my sugar under goal.

    I loved coffee for many years until I had vertigo, spells of spinning dizziness for about a year. Doc said quit the caffeine and the spinning stopped. So I get away with decaf to savor the familiar taste. I found it hard to love once I quit coffee completely for months. Going back wasn't very exciting. Hm.

    I drink one cup every morn, lately another mid-day, and one more after dinner. I drink it kinda strong with a flavored creamer or 1/2 & 1/2, never liked it with sugar.

    Oh I wouldn't wanna give it up ;) ~ but I do drink lots of ice water daily too, nothing else usually (except for the occasional booze).

    It's a cyclic thing. I give up coffee, get the headaches. Go back on it slowly, stop paying attention, it goes up too much, I give it up.

    ^^^^This

    For the last two weeks I've tried swapping out 2 cups of green tea for my regular morning Venti Pike with whole milk no sweetener (Starbucks addict here) and after the initial 7 days of headaches, irritability, and general b!%<#iness I'm actually feeling pretty good.
    ...but I know come the autumn when it starts to get cold in the mornings I won't be able to resist that yummy coffee goodness during my walk to work.

    Mine's 2 coffees with milk before I leave the house, and another mug at 1045 coffee time. A couple of times a week I fancy an espresso after dinner, too.

    I've been to quite a few places (sailing trips, camping trips in the remote tropics) where there was no morning coffee, only water. Surprisingly enough, that's always been fine, probably because there were always lots of activities to look forward to. I was always overjoyed to get back to my morning coffee, though. It's so delicious!

    I drink two cups of regular coffee (with cream and sweetener) in the morning. I sometimes add one more cup in the afternoon, if I am really tired, but it's rare. I could survive without coffee, but I'd rather not!

    Two cups in the morning, with full fat raw cream and vanilla stevia. I drink water after that. I could give up my coffee, but we (the coffee and I) would miss each other terribly. :wink:

    I have weened myself off of it a little, but still like to have 1-2 cups a day. If at work and drinking the coffee they give out for free, it is a medium roast with a little cream and sugar. If I'm at home, I have my wonderful Maxwell House original roast with some flavored creamer, no sugar needed :).
