Are there any webmasters that are caffiene free?
Hey Guys,
I was wondering if their are any webmasters that are close or completely caffeine free? I have an addiction to coke in a can and I want to quit but I'm scared of the caffeine headaches and terrible moods I get into. Ideally I want to stop drinking coke and coffee. I drink about 2 cups of coffee a day and one to two cans of coke a day. It started off fairly innocent but now its getting expensive too. I get stomach rot from the coffee and I know how bad coke is on my body. Are there any techniques that you have used or any tip and tricks you can recommend? |
i have drinked like 10 coffee in my life, and it always make me only bad feeling. but i need marijuana instead :)
|
why not switch it to tea instead? not bad for the stomach and always inexpensive...
caffeine has no real side affects, unless you have blood pressure issues or troubles sleeping anyway... |
i am ;) but ive never drank coffee in my life
|
Close. I have 1 or 2 cups of coffee in the morning, the rest of my day is caffeine free.
|
I am 100%:
Caffeine Free Drug Free "tea" free Energy drink Free I hardly ever drink fizzy pop, i have NEVER drank a cup of coffee or tea in my life. . . ever!! I don't need it for stimulation either, I believe thats down to a decent diet and good exercise! Fruit juice and water for the win!! |
Yes. I gave up caffeine approaching 2 years ago. I didn't think there was ANY way that I could live w/out diet Dr. Pepper, which was the only thing I had to worry about giving up, as I hate coffee.
I just went cold turkey, as I am impatient, and don't have a lot of success w/ trying to gradually give things up. It sucked for 3 days or so, then went away. For me, it wasn't a thing like stopping smoking where the urge to smoke still periodically hits me after years of quitting. It was just those first few days, then the desire was gone, both mentally and physically. |
was never a caffeine crazy guy over the years, i'd have the odd watered down coffee (more milk than water) with toast for midnight snacks. And through university days i would have a pop and pizza often for lunch. I never understood the addiction in between lecture breaks how some of my friends would be dying for a smoke and coffee.
I'm from toronto as well so i know there's a tim hortons, coffee shop or fast food place at every corner pumping out soda by the gallons. I'm a gym rat so i just limit the caffeine to a pop with my pizza if i pack on the calories on weekends. That's it, just cold water the rest of the time - it does the trick. I've also seen a new caffeine addiction my gym friends have and that's redbull. That shit is nasty and not good for you. What may help is try and avoiding the caffeine during the week and indulge on the weekend. That's what i do with eating right weekdays and packing on calories on the weekend, then eventually the need subsides. Also just make sure you don't have the temptations around you - whether it's at home or office. |

Thanks TeenCat I enjoy my green as well. |
You're brave, Dwreck. I can't quit coffee.
|
I quit caffeine over 15 years ago because I was very sensitive to it. I cold turkeyed and had a headache for 7-10 days, but it wasn't too severe. Right away I was sleeping better--I'd had insomnia for 20 years, and although it had lessened somewhat by the time I quit caffeine, I began sleeping like a little baby--and still do. I highly recommend quitting.
|
I'm on about 8 diet redbulls a day...
|
I drink coffee if i want to have a take a fine crap :) Otherwise i drink tea/water :)
|
I'm caffeinated 24/7. I actually think that my blood is now all liquid caffeine. haha
|
I quit caffeine about 5 months ago.I was addicted to Diet coke. The headaches were horrible for about 3-4 weeks. , now I feel great. Just man up & take the pain , my friend:thumbsup
|
First thing I do when getting in the office, getting coffee and smoking a cigarette. I'm a rebel I know
|
Tea is your answer, specifically Lipton Green Tea with Citrus in the summer and any hot tea in the winter.
|
I've always hated coffee myself; lately though I have started only drinking water + alcohol when I go out drinking. No soft drinks, no energy drinks, nothing but water :)
|
Italian roast is nice :)
|
Caffeine free for a long time apart from sometimes when I visit my brother as he has a fancy coffee machine and it's hard to resist - although last time I went there I was glad I had a lift home instead of driving as I could definitely feel i'd drunk it after so long on mostly just water all the time and my car likes going a lot faster than it's allowed to.
|
I drink maybe 1 cup of coffee every other month or so. I drink more coke though but not daily.
|
Must. Have. Coffee.
|
|
Mountain Dew and Four Loko's (which has caffeine, 12% alc, taurine, and something called guarana which is twice as potent as caffiene) are the only time I drink caffeine.
|
i'm, but just cause i have gastrit
|
I'm addicted to red bull, i drink around 5 cans per day and if i don't have one by 10am my face aches :)
|
8 cups of coffee and 8 oxycodone 30s per day. I feel great!
|
I've never drunk tea or coffee because they both dehydrate you. Used to drink a lot of Coke but it's even worse so I stopped drinking that too - all I drink now is bottled water, all day every day. Love the stuff and it's damn healthy too - win win situation.

<------- completely caffeine free. No coffee, no soda. Took about a month to get past the physical craving. I feel great.
|
Just drink water instead. FYI green tea has loads of caffeine in it.
You will sleep much better. Most caffeine addicts don't realize how bad it affects your sleep patterns. But some people have rough schedules and need a little caffeine. Others are real sensitive and avoid it. |
I drink expresso 2 times a week max with friends over summer, but sometimes i dont use any for months

Now I need an espresso...
|
I used to be a big coffee drinker also but switched to green tea with lemon, I sometimes add honey, since I'm working out now.
I also drink a lot of fresh squeezed grapefruit juice and take L-Carnitine. Caffeine dehydrates you. |
