Caffeine Reduction: Day 6 & 7

Image by mararie via Flickr Day 6 & 7 no caffeine but I got help with my headache, yes I said headache. I think the withdrawal symptoms finally caught up with me. However, I got some help, I got a cold. With a cold came some NyQuil, therefore help with my headaches. It really has made going with no caffeine much easier. Being sick tends to deter me from coffee and draws me towards herbal teas. I have been drinking a lot of Yogi Tea's Peach Detox. I love the way it smells and the way ...

Caffeine Reduction: Day 2-5

Image by Omar_MK via Flickr Well did you miss me? I took time to go on a Men's retreat this last weekend, got a lot of good work done. Well back to caffeine reduction. Days 2-5 were very interesting.

Feelings: Day 2 and 3 were great, I was focused and even on the retreat I kept up a paleo diet and didn't have the craving for caffeine. However, ...

Caffeine Reduction: Day 1

Image via Wikipedia This is day 1 of my caffeine reduction 30 day challenge. I want to keep a similar format on each day to make it easier to follow along. So the format I use on this post will be used on every post. I am type A like that. Feelings: So 2 cups of coffee (roughly 12 oz) is all the caffeine I have had today. I feel alright. At the moment it is 2:52, a time where I am normally pretty tired. Diet: I think having a good breakfast (eggs/bell peppers/spinach) and lunch ...

Caffeine reduction

Image by *0ne* via Flickr Caffeine is something that I have a love-hate relationship with. I love the smell, taste, and feeling of a good cup of coffee in the morning. Or the buzz I get from an energy drink while I am working or playing some xbox. This relationship I have had with caffeine has been great, but then things changed. I noticed that over the last month or two I am consuming a lot of caffeine everyday...just to keep going. My diet has changed slowly to become more and more ...
