So today I felt like utter crap. Lethargic, headachey and had sore eyes. Unusually I couldn't credit a hangover.
I realised it was all down not drinking my usual gallons of coffee. I had a coffee and soon after all was well.
That can't be good.
I'm cutting down on the caffeine. Holy shitballs I may even go cold turkey.
I googled and googled but the only advice I found was to exercise and get more sleep. Sounds sensible!
Any other wisdom dear forumites? |

When you cut down on tea/coffee I found that I had really bad headaches, and I mean all day!
Drink loads of water and take some painkillers to help. It only lasts for a week or so. Good luck !! |

"I find I get a coffee headache too. I just make a coffee and it goes. Seems logical to me. "
No flaw in that plan at all. Hehe. I may just resort to that. I'm not known for my willpower. |

"I used to have freshly brewed coffee on tap drank cup after cup for nearly 12 hours a day.
De-tox was horrific & I now limit my intake but oh the gorgeous smell....."
That's almost me JG. Mix it up with Instant and pod coffee depending on where I am. Not forgetting Costa. Oh dear! |

I usually feel like this saturday morning cause we only have decaff in at home. Hubs cant drink full caff.
Sometimes i think the hit its giving me is probably just masking my low iron lethargy etc |

And not forgetting that number 11 is out now in the OPS at Costa....I just today, funnily enough after purchasing said coffee, extra hot and extra SHOT that I thought I need to cold turkey this coffee addiction.
Maybe we should have a coffee club and weigh in our beans, weekly. |

It was the No.11 that perked me up earlier. A regular to-go cup now that my days of going large have been ruined! |
