    Caffeine addiction...

    Anyone else on here addicted to caffeine?

    I swear I drink almost 1000 M G a day.

    Sugarfree Rockstars are like crack.

    I drink a 2 liter of diet mountain dew daily on average. I kicked my tobacco habits but can't kick my caffiene habit.

    I watched this show about this girl who drain on average 28 sodas per day. They tried to cut her down to 16 per day at first and she couldn't do it. Ended up drinking like 30 per day that week. LOL

    So at least we're all better than her. I drink 2-3 sodas per day.

    I'm addicted to gambling too, but who cares about that.

    It's a way of life.

    Regular or diet? If it was regular thats like 1100+ grams of sugar a day just in soda. That's utterly insane.

    My caffeine addiction has gotten worse. Progressed from 2 rockstars to 3 now i'm drinking a 4 pack everyday. Shit is expensive (more expensive habbit than smoking) but just tastes too good to quit.

    Pretty sure it was regular. They were telling her she'd have diabetes in a few years for sure. It was some cheap kmart brand of soda.

    I don't understand why you'd want to drink that much soda, you'd be going to the bathroom 40-50 times a day.

    When I don't drink alcohol, I tend to drink more caffeine. Our addictive personalities make it tough not to be on some high 24/7.

    I haven't had caffeine in awhile now. People need the caffeine for the energy that it provides. Why not get the same energy from fruit? I make a smoothie each morning with 1/4 a papaya, a banana, a handful of strawberries, a handful of blueberries, 1 spoon of honey (natural bee's honey, no HFCS), and a spoon of granola. Blend that altogether, and you'll have no need for coffee. The energy is just crazy, and I don't have a crash from it like I used to with coffee everyday.

    The cycle goes M-F and it is fully functional and good

    Nope. I might have one coke a month. No tea or coffee.

    I have a Fuji apple instead.

    I guess it's because your oranges look like this genetically altered neon color:

    Used to drink at least 2 cokes/pepsis per day. Haven't had one in two weeks and wake up feeling better. It can be done.

    Is your smoothie going to get my toddler to sleep past 5 a.m? Because that's why I drink coffee.

    I have a 6 month old that gets up at 5am as well. The smoothie completely replaces coffee. Even better energy kick, and no crash in the afternoon. No headaches, nada.
