How much coffee do you drink a day?

[Neo10101]

No coffee, sometimes tea, but overall just things like OJ and milk, soda randomly thrown in.

One medium cup in the morning, caramel flavored. Then on the weekends I usually don't have any in the morning, but I'll often get a frozen coffee drink in the evening just for something yummy. I try to limit my intake so I don't built up a high resistance to it. I don't want to end up like a manager at my last job. He had to get two large lattes with three extra espresso shots each just to wake up.

Very wise of you. I can wake up without coffee, but I get severe headaches whenever I go without it for too long. If I don't drink a cup within the first 2 hours before I go to bed and I sleep in I will wake up with a headache I need 6 espressos to cure. Caffeine is only slightly addicting, but once you're addicted you can end up like me.

Yeah, and I have a constant reminder not to end up like that. My boyfriend can't go a day without at least three cans of Coke without turning into a grumpy *****. There's no way I'm going down that path.

Just out of curiousity, is that diet coke or regular? Because I've heard that diet coke is actually more addicting due to the sweetener in it.

Regular. Susceptibility to addiction just seems to run in his family (alcoholics, chain-smokers, etc).

wow, you people are coffee addicts, I don't drink coffee because coffee doesn't work on me, not even the hardcore kind.

I have chronic fatigue syndrome and coffee really helps as long as I don't drink too much of it. I have about two cups a day and if its a day I'm really going to be busy I have a strong espresso to help keep me on my feet. Some times a good strong cup of coffee can mean the difference between me needing my walking stick or not. Problem is that coffee allows me to cash cheques my body may not be able to cash so I have to be careful not to over exert my self or I'm in for one rough night, still I love my coffee.

One black coffee after breakfast, no sugar. It might seem odd, but I also drink it while on the toilet, taking my morning dump and reading the news. It's a relaxing yet multitasking.

Don't like so I don't drink it. Love the smell though. Mmmm... Oh and coffee cake! =D

Usually none. Don't like the smell or the effects.
