Bye Bye Coffee....

Posted on Tuesday 17 April 2007 at 2:20 PM in Staying Healthy - Post Comment

...well...maybe.

I'm trying to get back to a healthy, natural diet.  I'm trying.  I'm trying to drink less coffee and more tea and water.  I drink a LOT of coffee.  I keep forgetting that my body doesn't like doing anything cold turkey...especially stopping coffee.  I had a horrible headache and hubby finally figured out that it was because I didn't have any coffee.  Yikes...don't want to repeat that. 

So...here is the plan:  I'm gradually decreasing the coffee for a cuppa green tea instead.  Green tea actually has caffine in it, but it's all around a much better choice than coffee.  I was supposed to start today...but maybe I'll start tomorrow. 

At least I'm drinking more water.  I'm almost to the amount I need each day.  I posted about it here. I'm at about 48 ounces and I need to be at about 65 ounces each day.  I'm determined to get healthy!  Even if I have to keep starting again tomorrow.


Same Bandwagon

Well I am on the same bandwagon you are on but I'm about 2 weeks ahead of you lol. I just quit coffee 2 weeks ago and have been doing the Fast Track Detox Diet for 4 days now and have lost 4 lbs already. I recommend the book because it makes so much sense. It is a total of 11 days that you are on this but it really give you the kick you need to get started. Good luck with your journey to healthiness.
Take care.

I hope you'll keep us updated on your progress because I'd love to see how you do it! I have said SO many times how much I'd love to switch to tea but it just doesn't seem to do it for me - there's just nothin' quite so satisfying as a good cup o' joe! For me, I could really do without all that half-and-half (won't drink it black and milk and the fat-free "cream" just make it gray!...blech!). Maybe we can start a coffee-habit-kickers support group here! ;)
