    Get more rest. Do you exercise? If not, exercising some will boost your stamina.

    Psssh. I probably drink more than you do. I just make myself start drinking it black after the first three cups so I don't go over my calories.

    The big hitters: More sleep and more calories = more energy.

    Small benefits: Coffee and fresh air.

    More sleep and water! I also eat a piece of fruit if I'm starting to feel sluggish throughout the day

    Working out keeps me energized for quite a few hours afterwards. But I don't replace my coffee with exercise. Coffee is life.

    Morning exercise perks me up. But there is nothing inherently bad about coffee.

    When I stopped drinking coffee all day I stopped getting tired all the time. I used to hit 1-2 pm and wanted to take a nap every day so I started just drinking one cup in the morning and it got better.

    Now I have a 3 month old. So... I now drink coffee all day again.

    Never got in to coffee here. I wake up alert. I suspect you will have to go through a withdrawal period before you will feel energized during the day.

    Physical conditions that will make you over-tired include; obesity, sleep apnea, high blood pressure, thyroid, diabetes, vitamin deficiency, under-eating, and parenting. You can get tests to rule many of these out.

    wheatgrass juice or matcha green tea work for me... caffeine gives me a headache. We also sell 3G energy boosts at my work in the drinks which have green tea and guarana extract in them

    More sleep, start drinking tea to wean yourself off coffee.
    I drink one cup of coffee maybe once a month now and it usually makes me feel sick. All I drink is tea now!

    Lemon water is a great replacement for coffee, also any kind of fruit.

    Really? I can't imagine sitting down with a cup of hot lemon water when I first get up in the morning.

    Op what about a tsp or two of protein powder mixed with hot water and a dash of cream and whatever else you like the taste of.
