Caffeine withdrawal
 

First New Years resolution I ever made, to give up alcohol and drink
far less coffee. Both were giving me serious heartburn and it had
gotten so I cannot even drink beer because of it. Considering I prob
have more caffeine in my blood than hemoglobin, it had to be alcohol I
gave up but 12 cups of coffee a day probably is too much. So, with
only 3 cups in the morning and it being too cold outside to do
anything am feelin a bit tense.

I'd have cut out the booze, and cut way back on the coffee. Maybe only
11 cups, but they'd have to be 8oz cups, not those chintzy 6oz jobs.

Alot of stuff you enjoy is had to give up, but for the better. for me,
no more 1/2 lb hershey bars (1 a night) No more big bag of chips, or
doritos, or corn curls ( from top to the last crumb), cutting out on
salt. less beef and pork, and more fish. Eat more breakfast and less
supper.

But I ain't giving up coffee!

Am not giving it up, just cutting back to 3-4 cups/day.

Don't give up two things at one time. Give up coffee or alcohol but not
both at the same time.

How big is a cup?
I am probably up around 8-10 cups a day. We have a "12 cup" maker, my
wife takes 16 oz with her to work and I drink the rest throughout the
day.


My coffee maker says it is three cups..... at least that's how much water I
put in the machine.

No wonder you're insane. 12 cups of coffee a day?

Good thing you've backed this up with sound reasoning.

Since I retired I do not drink anywhere's the amount of coffee I used to.
And still rarely drink alcohol. But one nice thing about losing the
Christmas weight gain. I am using Costco's brand SlimFast for breakfast
and lunch. Yesterday my buddy and I went up to New Melones lake for some
trout and bass fishing. We used the Hobie pedal kayaks. Was easy to
imbibe lunch while pedaling along and trolling for trout. No fooling
around with cutting bread or cheese. And only caught one nice bass.


What's the lake level like at New Melones? It was waaay low when I was last
there in August.
