When I stopped taking in caffeine, I found the headaches stopped after about 24 hours.

Coffee, the first thing I look for on every sunrise..
Researches show, that the morning coffee wakes you up and increases your efficiency. I do believe. Some say bad about it, to whom I don't listen to.

I don't drink coffee products and I wish I could get caffeine free soft drinks and tea in restaurants. Yes, I can get some caffeine free soft drinks at Costco, but I usually only drink soft drinks and tea when I go out.

Two 16oz mud-coffees, each made with a very heaping tsp of coffee (or more).
In the morning, upon arrival in front of The Digital Altar.

should have been on the list: my preferred tipple after I kicked the caffeine habit. Ok, I know decaf still has some caffeine but I am allowed to delude myself.

There is a bug in my body. I can drink a cofee like water and go sleep without any problem.

I don't drink so much coffee, but I drink an espresso before going to sleep. I sleep like an angel.

I think that bug's been getting around. I think I've caught it too!

This is clearly the case of Chicken and Egg.
My doctor explained that I was self-medicating with Caffeine. I can range from ZERO to 500mg a day.
I find that I drink more when I need to focus, without distraction.
In fact when I am knee deep in a project, I make sure I have more caffeine sources available.
As a side note, since taking Zyrtec for allergies, I have very few Caffeine headaches on the days I don't do any. (I don't drink coffee/cola on the weekends very much, unless working)
I refuse to take any "real" drugs for my ADD... I have seen the Ticks and other side effects these have caused.
But I am SHOCKED at how little caffeine the respondents are saying they get daily. This flies in the face of Cola drinking programmers (and almost everyone I know)...

I enjoy a cup of tea before work (sometimes) but generally abstain from tea and coffee during the week. Like wine I tend to favour saving a good coffee for the weekends. You lose the caffeine kick if you have it regularly. I drink lemon tea at work.

I can't measure. I mean I don't want to measure... I don't want to mess up my head with calculating caffine...
I have enough other coding issues for it.
If you ask how many cup of tea or coffee? Answer is 2 or sometimes 4 a day.
Life is a computer program and everyone is the programmer of his own life.

I quit drinking or buying coffee 6 years ago;
Problem was that it kept jumping out of the cup on me. It would ruin clothes, favorite shirts, several times while driving, the coffee cup would just jump out of the cup holder, which was a perfect fit, and coffee everywhere. So one day day I said that's it, no more coffee for me.
Quit the diet coke 2 summers ago. Oh I love that stuff, 1 44oz everyday. So I broke my foot 2 summers ago from stress fractures; I bowled several days a week, and the new bowling shoes were hard on my feet. I wasn't able to walk for 3 weeks, no lunch, hurt to much to get that diet coke, and ended losing another 25 lbs in weight. So the weight I've been struggling to lose by running and walking 3 miles; 5 days a week for 5 years, was suddenly lost.
I'm not going back to that stuff, just water and beer for me, cheap beer.

I used to be a 4 liter of diet-dew a day guy. But seeing as how that was only slightly less silly than shooting myself in the face with a load of 00, I knocked that off.
Now it's 1 nodoz a day during the week, two on Fridays, Saturdays, and one on Sundays. Sometimes there's another regular soda in there someplace.
Love the smell of coffee,but can't tolerate the taste. No matter what I do to it, it's just foul.
My life would be MUCH easier if I drank coffee.
And don't even start on tea; just tastes like water filtered through dried leaves to me.

LOL. Tea IS water filtered through dry leaves!
I hated coffee as well. Way too bitter.
I found that if I used a really course ground it removed most of the bitterness.
I would add half and half (still do if panera, wont even purchase at Starbucks).
But I found an instant blend, slightly watered down, with 1 packet of splenda (no need for milk/cream).
But I can't drink what most people call coffee. My Russian friends call American Coffee "Coffee Juice", and they call what I drink a Second derivative of "Coffee Juice"... (We get darker liquid washing the stain from the cup, LOL).
To each their own. You are better off with the water.

WHO ARE YOU THE JAVA JUNKIE POLICE?

JUST TO PROVE IT I'm GOING TO GO GET ANOTHER CUP.

My office has unlimited coffee available, and I have a 24 oz cup. It rarely gets emptied completely, but I refill it at least 8 times a day, often more. That doesn't include the full 10-cup pot I have in the morning before work, of course.

According to Google[^] tea (100mg) has 11mg caffeine. Here I found 50mg of cfn and no information about the tea quantity. So, a survey must have enough information guys
I usually drink tea, ummm well a big sized mug, 6 times a day, usually more.

11mg (up to 47mg) would be iced tea (also according to Google). Proper Black brewed tea: Quote: Black tea 8 oz. (237 mL) 14-70 mg
Quote: Black tea, brewed for 3 minutes 8 fl. oz. 30-80
...from two sources. So 50mg for an 8oz tea is a reasonable average strength.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
