and I'm doing it easier then I thought.
I'm a herbal tea man now.

Scotty I have done the same thing since starting working night shifts at the hospital coffee and coke zero gone from my diet the first week was hell caffeine withdrawal can get really bad but ihave found a great decaf that I can still use in the machine and sleeping heaps better
I was seriously addicted to coke zero

Mac, good to see you going hard at training and off the rum.

Pup, on my 2nd chardy (soft I know but drinking with the Mrs and it doesn't bloat me).

Boof, before I cut the coffee out I was only having 2 large (4 shots) each morning.
A few years ago I used to have 5 per day (10 shots). I tried to stop twice but body was so used to those 10 shots of coffee per day that I was too irritable to go without. This is the reason I am doing it easier then last time.
It's health thing but mainly a cost cutting exercise as I eat out 6 breaky's a week and 5 lunches midweek. I just love my mornings pre-work where I sit down,read the Tele and enjoy my coffee with a healthy breaky of Avacadoe,smoked salmon on Multigrain toast. Spending $200-$250 per week is just out of control and could take the fam to Fiji each year for that. Yes, I could just get a take away coffee but fark that.

Coffee.....working mans crack..... I have a few each day...

Why not just decaf Scotty...?

And why is decaf dearer than normal coffee? The good stuff has been taken out[;)

SP, I love my coffee with full cream milk and full of caf.
I know all the good spots for coffee around Sydney and enjoy trying new spots. The end of an era.
The chemicals they pump into decaf to remove the caf isn't great for you either.

Yeah I'm kinda a coffe snob 2. A good coffee is a great thing.

I lasted 2 days on the decaf, it is ****...

You forgot the hazelnut syrup in it.....

I heard someone ask for equal, that substitute sugar stuff the other day...WtF

He's got a point Mac.Ya can't beat 666 for exercise.

BP loves Catwoman

Don't much like the idea of a caffeine free life, I really start to struggle about 2 or3 if I don't have my morning espresso. Found myself going off to the land of nod driving back from Mandurah on the freeway the other day after forgetting my morning brew. Shat myself and jumped off the next exit to get a couple of those horrid energy drinks to get me home.

Now I'm addicted to herbal tea.
