      Taylor! I switched to matcha and I haven't touched coffee in over 3 months now. I used to drink 2 cups and pre-workout before but now I only have 1 cup of matcha with unsweetened oat milk and I don't think I'll go back to coffee again!

      Your question about coffee, I've gone years without it (pregnancies, breastfeeding...etc.)
      and since then, came back to it a couple of times, but never in a regular basis.
      The reason is, I realized (yes really late) I had ADD and I am medicated now.
      It may be not the case for you, but you never know, maybe good to look it up.
      Since then, coffee is not a need, it's more a fun thing to drink sometimes.
      Hope it helps 💚

      YES. I have never had coffee in my life because my mom is a coffaholic and it was the first smell I had all life in the morning. Anyway people ask me how I do it and I say that capitalism is trying to make us robots and according to latest science people who are overworked get dementia later in life and also die of heart diseases. If I’m tired my body tells me to rest and I rest.

    Taylor, I like these types of vlogs the best. I like seeing the area, the restaurants, what you eat, the weather, and I love seeing Tom and Rosie in your vlogs.....loved this one and was hoping you would do one like this soon! I like to see you and Tom interact, it's cute! I have to have 1 cup of coffee in the a.m. first thing and then that is it for the day. What if you just have 1 in the morning and none in the afternoon? I could not sleep if I had afternoon coffee ! I def feel a difference, foggy etc. when I don't have my coffee in the morning, if you have to drive somewhere it could be dangerous! ....at least for me. :)

    I've had coffee maybe 10 times in my life (I'm 28). I always shock people when I say I don't drink it. I don't like the taste, the way caffeine makes me feel (nervous and paranoid), and now as I've gotten older I've noticed that even decaf gives me gastrointestinal problems. I pretty much only drink water and my favorite drink in the morning is ice cold water.

    Hey Tay! Transitioning to decaf or no coffee at all can be harsh, I found that doing it slowly is a good option: I suggest that to begin with, you mix some decaf ground coffee to some regular one and day by day you decrease the amount of regular coffee in the mixture to, finally, none at all. This way your body gets used to it and you don't go through a withdrawal as bad as this one! Lots of love

    I stopped and the first day was hard but it got so much better. I felt more energy actually and less nervous. Now I do drink coffee again, but very consciously only when I know it would actually help me to drink a cup of coffee now, when I’m extremely tired and I need to be in an appointment or meeting.it feels like I took control over it and before coffee had control over me. Feeling balanced now 🙏

  • @junkabella6324

    I have quit coffee many times! The key is to know when it gets overboard/you want a change and then do one or the other: 1. Quit cold turkey and after 3 days you don’t even miss it anymore, 2. Restrict yourself to only one cup in the morning until you feel like ditching it is okay.
    Sometimes even cutting down is a good solution. At my worst i drank two POTS a day. (Worked on my thesis.)

    Taylor, if you add sugar it counteracts the salt :) It won't work perfectly so if it's way too salty it might not be salvageable, but it's definitely worth a try! Lemon juice (citrus in general) works too - next time you oversalt something just add sugar and some lemon juice :)

    Hi!! I quit drinking tea last year because I was moving countries and I thought it would help me with my anxiety. I went about 6 weeks without relying on caffeine of any kind and I have to say I wouldn't recommend it at all! It left me way less productive and almost made me feel depressed? I think I'm so used to having that morning buzz that my body was in shock...
    I will still go without caffeine on days where I'm feeling anxious, as I'm usually running on adrenaline anyway, but this is rare. I think I've struck a happy balance where a single cup of Earl Grey tea in the morning is just the right amount of caffeine I need for the day. I never have caffeine in the afternoon or evening and I sleep like a rock! Good luck finding what works for you!

    About the coffee topic
    What worked best for me is that I controlled the time and amount of when I had my regular coffee.
    To decrease the withdrawals and dependence on it I stopped having it in the morning (I'd get the decaf) and then in the afternoon I'd drink a small cup of regular coffee/tea because I'm the same way in that I feel less energized by that time.
    I also try not to have any near bed time for better sleep.

    I tried quitting coffee for a month. I drink so much coffee you wouldn't believe it - some days it's all I drunk. So I decided to quit to feel better or at least different. I was scared for withdrawal and headaches and tiredness, but literally nothing felt like it changed! I could totally go without, and what I missed most was the warm feeling and the smell of coffee in the morning.

    Back in 2007 I quit coffee and Diet Coke cold turkey for six years! I initially quit for a new year detox, but just... kept going, I guess? To be honest, once I got used to not drinking caffeine, I didn't feel much different, but I remember the exact moment I had my first coffee after six years: it was after a huge lunch and I was like, 'Let me just see how this goes.' The first cup was a revelation! Instantly I remembered everything I loved about coffee: the taste, the smell, the comfort of a hot, rich drink. I did make the big mistake of ordering a second cup of coffee immediately after my first cup and felt a huge caffeine rush. But yeah, I love coffee and, for me personally, quitting didn't change anything about how I felt, so now I'm a coffee drinker again.

    I got de-addicted to coffee after a lengthy stay in hospital where I didn't have any. I've never really had any trouble sleeping, with or without coffee. However, my energy is more even throughout the day.
    When I used to drink coffee, I'd be sleepy and tired in the morning until I had a coffee and I would be tired again in the afternoon when I would need another pick-me-up coffee. Sometimes my coffee would be a tea instead, but I can see how drinking coffee regularly wasn't really a "pick-me-up" but rather made me feel tired at certain times of the day so that I would need a coffee to give me energy again.
    I still drink coffee once in a while because I like its taste but not daily nor at a regular time.

    Coffee and I have had an interesting relationship. In my culture/family it was common to have homemade cafecito (milk coffee) at night with a small dessert or bread with jam/cheese. Even if you were a child; all part took. And maybe it was because it was very little coffee and mostly milk, it didn’t effect me.
    It wasn’t until my first year of college I had black coffee and cappuccinos. Perhaps the caffeine level was too much for my size, but I did not have good experience. Anytime I drank it to give me that boost to work on projects; my body would get a wave of energy but my brain was still sleepy; the disparity between my body and brain was too much and felt as if I was being tortured from sleeping. So I quit all together.
    That was about 6 years ago. I have reintroduce caffeine into my life but only through tea. And if I have low amounts mixed with a plant-base milk & MCT oil, my body can handle it. My go to is Chai latte. Also I opt for Munkfruit sugar instead of regula sugars. Even with all these changes, I only have it once a week and instead get energy from ginseng, ginkgo biloba and matcha the other days.
    My best recommendation is to do what your body needs. If you miss the flavor, which is what I did. There are ways to maintain the flavor without the caffeine. And alternatively if you miss that boost of energy, see if alternatives work with your body. (Intermediate fasting with a nutrient dense diet has help me with this) Follow your intuition; it’s rarely wrong

    Thoroughly enjoyed the vlog! Tom's commentary was hilarious 😂 I’m not addicted to coffee. In fact I’m actually caffeine sensitive to the point that I shouldn’t drink anything caffeinated past noon or else I run the risk of not going to bed by a reasonable. The reduction of coffee might help you feel less anxious too. I can drink matcha in the mornings, and it’s been a great addition to my morning routine.

    I went for a full month without coffee in January. It was really hard at first but got better. I felt the same way as you do/did after one month. Right now I am only drinking one cup of coffee in the afternoon, so I could easier concentrate. After one month without coffee, my first sip of coffee felt like I was in a sugar rush. Caffein also helps me with my migraines. In the mornings I usually drink green tea.

    I quit coffee for 6 weeks and during that time, I had great fun drinking every herbal tea under the sun! When I tried coffee again after that, I got jittery and couldn't concentrate at all because the caffiene hit me so strongly. I love the taste of coffee though, so it is now back in my life.

  • @CGiles

    I stopped drinking caffeinated drinks for a while due to bad anxiety. First I felt worse, and like you said, I just couldn't focus. I was very foggy-headed. But eventually, I began to feel more neutral again. I don't know if it improved my sleeping, I think it just restored it to how it should've been pre-anxiety.
    But when I started drinking caffeinated drinks again, I made sure it was only like one cup in the morning. It didn't make me jittery thankfully cos I started off in a small amount. And only in the mornings! It takes 10 hours they say for caffeine to leave your system. I know if I have more than 2 caffeinated drinks a day, it'll increase my anxiety again. So I'm more aware of my limits of it and don't overdo it. I only have caffeine if I really feel I need it, or I know it'll be a long day and I need that quick energy. But no caffeine after 3pm!

    I gave up caffeine over 5 years ago. I felt similar to how you described the afternoon. It was a struggle to accomplish anything. My doc said to increase my water intake but it wasn’t enough. My boss allowed me to take longer break - I started a 10+ minute light exercise/yoga/stretch/walk routine around 2 or 3pm with water (or another liquid: juice, smoothie, etc) to get back that energy. It’s worked so well after the first week or two. Now, I do yoga or walk at that time even on the weekends.

    I gave up coffee six years ago, I have a heart defect and should never have been having as much coffee as I was so I felt much better after giving it up. I occasionally have coffee now but only when there are no decaf options. If I have coffee now I don't have it black like a did in the past, I add a creamer (usually soy) , the fat helps so down the caffeine release which is better for me.

    Am without coffee for over a year and a half now. Still drink tea but I find that I'm no longer sluggish or craving caffeine late in the afternoon and sometimes even forget to have caffeine at all. I also drank coffee because I loved the smell and taste. You mind find yourself quite jittery or not able to sleep even 8 hrs after your first coffee. My heart was beating soooo fast when I started up again last time I stopped. Don't think I'll ever go back now though.

    I tried to stop drinking coffee about 2-3 years ago, but found I missed it so I tried drinking a cup or two of coffee after 12:00 (mid-day) instead. It worked much better for me and my sleep, and I still try to keep it like that today, even if I have coffee cravings in the morning.

  • @TheSwauzz

    I learned about a case study done about coffee. Coffee addicts (meaning daily/regular coffee drinkers) don't actually get any increase in energy above their baseline from coffee. They are just feeling the effects of staving off withdrawal symptoms. Just a little something to think about.
    Wanted to also add about the husband negativity thing. You are not alone when it comes to having those days. For me, it means I need to spend some quality time alone and process some things so I'm not being so dang negative. Being in a long term relationship with the same person for years and years means you will definitely have days where you "can't stand them" for lack of a better term. Totally normal as long as it passes!
