De-Tox.
April 05, 2005 @ 07:52 AMI’m on my 5th day of no coffee.
Significant.
As someone who’s downed an average of 1.3 coffees a day since I was 16, going 5 days without is pretty difficult. It should be noted that my intention is not to never have a coffee again, but mostly I’m hoping to go about a month or so without one to get myself off the habit. This one-a-day and sometimes two-a-day thing can NOT be good for me. I’m also motivated by the fact that I’d like to lose a few pounds, and downing a 600 calorie drink every morning is not a productive way of losing weight.
But, it has not been fun. Today is the first day since last week that I haven’t woken up with a headache. I’ve been trying to help the process by drinking a ton of water. I don’t know if that’ll actually help or not, but it’s a GOOD habit to get into either way.
Anyway, wish me luck. 25 more days to go, but I think I’m over the largest hurdle. :)
