Do You Feel It Is Nessecary To Start Your Day With Caffine?

Do you start your day with a cup of coffee? How about a pop? I didn't used to think that it would effect me so much, but after I started drinking a cup of coffe a day just to wake up,it started to go up. I started with a cup then two and now a whole pot before I even feel like a can dibe into the days activities. I used to drink a lot of pop, but I don't anymore. But God help you if you try to talk to me before I have had at least one cup of coffee. Are you like this? Do you have to have something containing caffine before you face your day?

Yes I start my day with a cup of coffee, It has become a habit of mine eversince. But I don't feel its necessary to start my day with caffeine because there are days that I go out without having coffee to start my day. :-)

But do you stop to get a pop or something shortly after you leave the house? I do if I haven't had that cup.

I probably couldnt start my day without coffee. I allways have a couple of pots of coffee before noon.

well, i dont drink coffee at all, during any part of my day, but i do like to have a large glass of fruit juice in the morning. i am not fussy, oj, grape, cranberry, peach, whatever happens to be handy...rarely i will have a tea, but i generally wait til i get to work for that as it warms me up!

I am like this. I always wake up to my husband handing me a cup of coffee. I know a lot of people only have a cup or two but like you I have a pot and then another. I have it before I go to bed It doesn't keep me awake at night and I like it.

That sounds like my dad. He worked at Chrysler for 36 years and drank pot after pot and never was kept awake at night. It doesn't keep me up either which really sucks when I am trying to stay up for something..LOL Thank you for posting..

no, i haven't tried coffee in the morning although I do drink coffee during the afternoon. I think it's better though to drink during the morning because coffee really helps in the activities that you do in the morning

It depends on when you are most active, if you wait until afternoon to get busy on the stuff you have to do, maybe it is better for you to drink it then. Thank you for posting.

Oh you sound just like me! I have to have my cup of coffee in the morning or I'm just non functional! I make a pot in the morning then one in the middle of the day. I've been trying to cut back but ugh the headaches!

The headaches do get bad and the more you get used to drinking and then try not to have that much the next day... Look out, headache from he&&. I mean I didn't think it was so bad, but like I said. MAN... I had only three cups today at around 9 a.m. and here it is 1 and I already have a headache. It sucks.. Thanks for posting and hope your coffee and caffine is good... I know mine sure is.LOL

I do like coffee to start my day or green tea, but it depends on what I made the night before. I heard it speeds up your metabolism, but it does not make me more awake, so the reason I drink it is to keep my heart pounding a little faster. However being a diuretic, I do not like to drink it that much, and I prefer it plain if it is medium, and with milk if it is very strong.

I will have to try the green tea to speed up my metabolism, because god knows I do not even have one anymore.. I look at food and gain.. LOL isn't that how it always goes? Thank you for posting and thanks for the tip on green tea.
