Life Without Coffee
Worth living?
This is my first day back in the office (physically) after a flu. When I'm sick, coffee sounds about as appealing as lemon juice in the eye. Just Do Not Want. The annoying thing about this is whenever I am sick, I end up with caffeine withdrawal on top of my sick.
I'm trying an experiment this time. After my enforced withdrawal, I'm attempting to stay off the bean. Or rather, coffee should be a recreational drug, not a necessity.
This is proving challenging.
I don't know what normal baseline awakeness feels like. I don't know when or how I'm supposed to come online mentally in the morning, and I can't judge if fogginess is holdover from flu or just what day-after-insomnia feels like. I think I may have to start going to bed sooner, & trying to get more sleep (crazytalk!).
OTOH, if I can do this & stick to my foodz changes I will be so damn healthy! If I can manage to start exercising, I'll be practically insufferable.
