In the spirit of the Master Fitness thingie

Well, yesterday was pretty good: I hadn't been to the store yet, so I couldn't do the part decaf ground and part caffinated grounds in the morning. I did manage to only drink 6 cups of coffee in the morning and no fountan soda in the afternoon, without substituting additional cans. Only 5 cans of soda, including dinner.

Today I did 1 scoop of decaf and 4 of normal, and drank about 7 cups of that. No fountain sodas at all and only 4 cans of soda. I have a headache.

How are you doing, cutie?

Thanks! It's not the dehydration that's the issue; I've upped my water and fruit juice intake and milk intake. It's the headache. I did have another soda with dinner so it's ebbing a little bit. But 5 sodas is better than it was last week. I think I need to just hold where I am for a day or so til I'm used to it.

It's the headache.

If i'm not mistaken, caffeine dilates portions of the circulatory system. Part of the problem may be your body has incorporated that "effect" as part of its daily routine. All the more reason to reduce the amount you ingest, if not cut it out entirely.

Working on it, but it's harder than I thought it was going to be. I'd like to cut it out entirely by the end of January. My first goal was December 31st, but I'm starting to think that was overly optimistic.

Best of luck.

((cutie)) I haven't done very well either. 7 cups of coffee (1/4 mix again) 4 cans of soda and a glass of iced tea, (half zinger and half orange pekoe, which I think maybe be all right? Isn't Celestial Seasonings Red Zinger decaf? I forgot to ask the waitress.)

And a headache.

((((cutie and sc)))))))

You're both doing great! It's not easy: I've done it! But you'll feel so much better when it's done.

I'm doing okay. I managed to hold it at 6-7 cups of the 1/4 blend and 5 or less cans of soda up to yesterday. The headache finally subside on sunday-ish. So today I went to 2/3 blend on the coffee and I'm going for 4 or less sodas.

I think your addiction may have been slightly more reasonable than mine!

Thank you! Have you gotten really thirsty yet and not get a drink cause you can't drink soda? It's funny, you get obssessed by the demon drink and you forget about water!
