I drink 4-5 cups of coffee early in the day, then cut off all caffeine by early afternoon. If I’m really tired, I’ll drink a redbull in the morning on top of my coffee. ---

Pretty much zero, just water & skim milk (sometimes as protein drinks), juice, lemonade, and an occasional caffeine free pop. Does everyone drink it because they’re tired, or is it just a habit? Do you get headaches if you don’t drink it? ---

I used to be steady hooked on Red Bull and No Fear. Now I’ll try and limit it to a can of pop maybe every other day or every 3 days. Caffeine makes my heart go nuts if I stretch weird or breathe weird, so I’m trying not to go out Cardiac Arrest style at 25. ---

Always have coffee in the morning. Used to drink two 24 oz Mtn Dews a day on top of the morning coffee. Then I switched to energy drinks for a while like Amp, Rockstar, and Monster. Got away from those. Expensive and made me tweak if I drank more than two. Sticking to coffee and other drinks now (Life/Vitamin Water, Gatorade, a variety of iced teas, etc) rather than the energy drinks. I would like to eliminate pop altogether, but I still have a soft spot for the occasional Coke or Mtn. Dew. ---

At least a pot a day (12 cups) a Venom or Rockstar in the afternoon as needed. I was accused of being addicted and set out to prove the accuser wrong. Headaches galore for the first few days on the wagon. They were right, I was wrong. Back to my old ways, a pot a day, black, bold and can’t get enough. No jitters or heart racing here… ---

The tiles on the floor were moving near the end. Doesn’t sound like caffeine keeping you up! I start everyday with a 1-2 cups of coffee, of course it’s an oversized cup and equals out to 1/2 pot of coffee. Then it’s dew, iced tea, and more coffee throughout the day… If I’m working from home I’ll brew another pot o coffee, if I’m out working I’ll have 1-2 energy drinks a day… (honestly more for the taste than the enrgy) If I don’t order a beer with a meal at a restuarant it’s water and coffee. I’m usually finishing either a dew or tea right before I go to bed. Almost everything I drink has caffiene, but it’s been like that for as long as I can remember…and from time to time I go without, and can’t say that I get real headaches or function any less. Only thing I avoid is sugar in my drinks, cuz that usually makes me feel like shit (basically everything is sugar free or diet) ---
