    I used to Drink Coffee Constantly, well it was as some might say My Best Friend. But as I know, (and did know then) Coffee isn’t really the Best thing to be Drinking Constantly. I have know stop Drinking it all together, and Switched to all Natural Green Tea with Honey instead of Sugar.

    I’ve gotten my coffee consumption down to just weekends – I tend to drink green tea the rest of the week, both hot and iced. I have to confess that I do still like to have that one cup of coffee in the morning on Saturday and Sunday. My coffee tends to resemble dessert – lots of milk and sweetener. This past weekend, though, I did skip it in preparation for this challenge and had herbal tea instead both days.

    I do love coffee, too. Are there any bad health effects from green tea?

      well yes, it does have the Power should I say to Lower and Suck the iron out of your System, not Dramatically, of course but it can Lower it, oh and Feel Free to tell me I’m Wrong, I thought my Judgment right, in the Best sense.

    Caffeine makes me mean and I’ve been very busy and stressed over the holidays so for now I definitely need to skip the caffeine. New flavors of decaf tea and juices are fun to try and then I always have my water bottle nearby—despite the drought.

    I do crave coffee… a lot! But thankfully I have a lot of tea available! I’m working towards permanent change!

    Since I bought a coffee this morning, I will have to start this challenge right now. I wouldn’t say that I am an habitual coffee drinker but I crave it about 4 or 5 days out of the week. I normally only drink one coffee which consists of about 16 ounces. I do enjoy tea and know that I should be drinking that more often.

    You know instead of coffee…a good night’s rest, not sleeping in, a quick shower, and a cup of juice can do wonders.

    I have not started, therefore I have not completed this challenge today. I am planning on doing it tomorrow. I bought some Green Tea and some Black Chai Tea. Sounds really good. :) yum

    This one is easy for me given that I am pregnant and drinking tea already. Although sometimes I crave a coffee so I get a decaf but I won’t do that today.
