Always black, never added anything to it. And at 57 it became a regular habit at home, a very large cup every morning made with a glass beaker. I had never ever had coffee before in my life. Two years ago after returning from an extended trip to Europe, where people were pushing espressos and coffee on me, I started on coffee. Please wish me the same back as I have never conquered this devil before and it's way beyond the time to do so.way beyond.I am so late The point was to say "Thank you" You just helped kick me in the pants to do what I am supposed to do. I could go on and on about it, but that's not the point of my response to your notification. The physical addiction (headaches etc) end rapidly for me (just a couple of days) even though I also drink 5-8 cups of seriously stout, always freshly ground coffee, but the emotional and habitual actions of having the coffee last, seemingly, forever (for as long as I can endure anyway before returning back to it) I have quit several times over the years, but always go back. (regardless of any study for or against it) I've known for 15 years. I know beyond shadow of a doubt that I am not supposed to be drinking coffee. I just wanted to say "THANK YOU" for the message that you have/are quitting coffee (as I know from experience it doesn't happen overnight). I never respond to blogs or anything of the such, but this called for a response. Please do some research before you reply next time. Andreas is in Sweden? I doubt he has ever even had weak American coffee. It's like having steak well done or overcooked fish.Īnd on top of all that you will go through a lot less coffee in a year. Of course no milk or sugar either, again you're just killing the coffee flavour. 3 or 4 espressos a day will keep you more focused than 8 americano coffees, while also reducing your headaches and tasting much much better. What's worse, you're putting in a lot more caffeine into your system for a much weaker result. Watering down the coffee, which is just a waste of coffee in the first place, means the caffeine takes a lot longer to get into your system, stays there longer but has a much lessor effect on keeping you focused and alert. Pure espresso is much more effective at boosting alertness without as many negative effects. Maybe if you tried drinking real coffee instead weak, watered down drip coffee American style. I actually tried to quit right away back then, but failed:

Weight Loss Wonder Boy or Sneaky Scoundrel?Īnd here’s a video interview from this summer with the doctor who initially got me interested in quitting coffee. Here’s another low-carb doctor who just recently quit coffee:ĭr.

Have you tried quitting? What happened? Feel free to leave a comment below. I’ll write another blog post when I know the end result. But so far the weight is not going down, it’s stable at best. So far my experience is I’m low on “reward” and feel the urge to eat more, to try to feel better. I hope to feel sharp during the entire day.Īnd the weight? I’m happy with my weight already, but it will be interesting to see if anything changes.

I’m looking forward to being able to get started right away in the morning and not have to wait for the coffee to kick in.

I’m feeling much better again this week, but apparently it can take 2-3 weeks to be fully back to normal. I’ve replaced the coffee with naturally caffeine-free tea. It was replaced by brain fog and irritability. Not just for headache but for a weird and intense muscle ache in my legs (apparently this can happen).Īlso the motivation. For a number of days I had to take painkillers to be able to sleep and work. Wish I could say it has been easy, but it’s been a miserable experience. From eight to zero cups a day, just like that. So nine days ago I had my last cup of coffee. It could potentially be bad for weight loss. The third thing is that caffeine releases stress hormones, that raise insulin and glucose levels, especially after meals. And the mornings? They are way slower than they could be. As soon as levels of caffeine drop you’ll feel worse. After a while you need it to stay focused and energetic. The second problem? Caffeine messes with your brain. I’ve recently been drinking up to 8 cups a day. The first problem is that caffeine is clearly very addictive. But I’ve quit, cold turkey, and for good reasons.
