How much coffee do you drink?

[Deleted]

I think I'm becoming a bad addict, adding more and more each day.

[Deleted]

I drink 8oz a day. On days I take a gym class I drink it on the way, on days I run before work I drink it on the way to the office. I used to do about a pot a day and needed to stop (I wasn't sleeping well and had a constantly upset stomach). I started measuring out my servings and cutting it back bit by bit until I got here.

20oz in the morning. But I get more caffeine with lunch.

Sadly, I am lucky if I get to enjoy a cup of it these days. It has been making me so sick. I can drink tea, but my beloved coffee has rebelled against me. This child must be an alien.

Probably too much. I'm trying to balance it out with a glass of water in between, but I've only been so successful.

[smock]

None! I'm just naturally this perky!!!!

[moolarkey]

12 oz a day. My problem is Coke. If I don't limit myself I will really guzzle it

[nomad100]

Too much. Probably (4-5 cups) on a work day, more on the weekend.

I try to rationalize it by telling myself that since I add skim milk to each cup I am getting my daily amount of dairy.

Add my afternoon and evening Diet Coke consumption and I am getting way too much caffeine.

Luckily, so far it hasn't affected my ability to fall asleep since I can drink a Diet Coke and be fast asleep less than an hour later.

1 -2 mugs a day, usually. My mugs hold 2 coffee maker cups, so I really have 2 - 4 cups/day, I guess.

[partiallysunny]

Not much. I never drink "just" coffee. It has to be smothered in natural and artificial flavorings. Maybe once a week I indulge.

Before I went and got knocked up, 8 cups a day (and then usually 2-3 sodas). Now I'm drinking one venti half-caff misto from Starbucks a day. The rest is usually caffeine-free. I have the occasional day where I drink more caffeine than that... but the half-caff misto is my normal, every day amount of caffeine.

[fussbucket]

Normally two 10 oz cups a day. I usually drink two big cups when I wake up and then switch to decaf when I get to work. Now my two morning cups are half-caff.

I used to drink a lot more but cut way back in my first pregnancy and never resumed quite my previous levels afterwards.

You guys still outdrink me! I think I'm up to 2 6-8 oz cups a day.

[Deleted]

32 oz each morning before 8.

Heehee!

Ive cut back in the last 6 months or so

[mortomo]

Usually 12 oz in the morning and another 8-12 after lunch. If I don't have any after lunch I'll have 6 ozs after dinner.

How do you sleep?? If I have any after 1pm, I toss and turn all night.

[gault]

I drink decaf 50% of the time.

But lately I've been having an americano with a spash of cream and some sugar-free syrup every day, 16 oz.

[starrieskies]

I usually have 2 cups before I leave for work, and another 12 oz on the way to work. There's usually coffee here too, so I drink at least one more cup until lunch. I don't usually drink coffee after lunch though. I'm one of those people who will drink it if its there, but if it's not, oh well. I could easily drink a whole pot of coffee by myself on the weekends though.

[Muddled]

Holy shit, Mags. Does that not keep you running to the bathroom all day long?

Caffiene doesn't really affect me.

[Deleted]

I'm jealous mort. SOO jealous. My sister is like that, she drinks coffee all day and night.

[malibu]

Hmm. I drink a travel mug, a Rockstar, and at least two Vanilla Coke Zeros a day. I need a lot of caffeine to function.

[Chirp]

None. But I drink more tea (hot or iced) and diet coke than I care to calculate.

Holy cow!

[Deleted]

3 to 4 cups per day. But I mix 1/3 caffein and 2/3 decaf.

[lys]

I have cut waaaayy back and am down to 2 cups a day (breakfast and lunch time)

[imoan]

Caffeine doesn't affect me either. I can drink a large coffee at midnight and go right to sleep.

[statlerwaldorf]

I had to cut out caffeine. I used to have 1 cup of coffee a day and a shitload of Diet Dr. Pepper.
