I guess I'm never giving up on coffee, not anytime soon at least, but every now and then I will lower the "dosage" or maybe even skip a day or two, maybe a week. But I'll surely have a substitute ready, mostly milk tea.
These hot beverages help mostly when I'm working or reading a book, it's like an extra bit of icing on the cake; it's not necessary, but it helps.
I think it's ok in reasonable amounts, but the five cups I was drinking a day was too much for various reasons I've outlined in other comments on this post. It's all a personal choice though, what worlks for one may not work for the other. I enjoy coffee though, so will have it, just in smaller amounts.
Man! 5 cups a day is too much I'd say, 2 cups is fine. I'm good with one hot cup a day. The highest I went in one day was 4 cups I think, my wife and I were on a crazy streak for some reason. We finished our last cup at 2 AM that morning lol. 😂
Coffee at 2am? I'd be up for a week!
I think I've allowed my intake to increase a little out of control hence the pull-back. I only had one yesterday and am planning on none today. Small steps right?
Yeah, whenever my wife is around all the coffee drinking goes off the rails sometimes. 😂
Always, one by one, slow and steady. This always works in the long run. You can't just get rid of a habit or diet just instantaneously.
Yeah, slowly does it.
