coffee woes.

i quit coffee.

yes i know. that should be considered a sin. but guys. my body was having a fit.
and mind you i've drank coffee for over two years, but as of late, coffee and i were not getting along.

i'll spare you the details, other than my body was just screaming a big loud no.
and i know as with anything, every organism is different, so while you may relish in lattes, espressos, and any other coffee variety, i had to stop.

while tea might be an option, i really don't enjoy tea all that much. so my only other option was juicing. and juicing i did.
let me tell you. that first day at work, i struggled. my head was hurting, i got dizzy, my heart was screaming for caffeine!
but as the week went by and i kept replacing my coffee for juice, i felt so much better and with a little bit more energy.

it's amazing what happens when we actually listen to our bodies, which i, for one, choose to have selective hearing with,
like it telling me to lay off the baked goods.

i don't know that i will never drink coffee again, but the feeling of not being completely dependant on it is truly freeing. that and not feeling like a hot air balloon. :|

have you had to cut anything out of your diet?
how did it work out?
