One of my resolutions this year was to reduce my Diet Coke intake. (Not just the caffeine, but also the fake sugars and carbonation).
Now I realize I’ve created a problem.
I seem to be substituting coffee in place of my Diet Cokes (at least when I’m at home). And unfortunately, it’s not decaf.
So I think I’m going backwards in my attempt to increase my natural energy level.
Maybe I need to alter this resolution a bit. At least clarify.
Still keep my intention of reducing DC intake, but commit to one additional rule:
For every cup of coffee, I also drink an additional cup of water.
Maybe, after a week or two, I’ll feel so full as if I’ll float away on the next rainfall, that I’ll naturally reduce my coffee intake as well.
But if I think that through, I see one inevitability:
Caffeine Withdrawals
Headaches. Jittery-ness.
Hmm… maybe I need to keep thinking.
