mdemarco84! Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Hi all, I'm on Day 6. Doing great, eating well. I'm tired today which is very normal it seems. And I'm cranky, but that usually goes along with being tired in my case. Um. I would like to have another cup of coffee today (it is well before 12 pm still). Would that interfere with what my body is working through? I always limit my caffeine to one cup in the morning, but today could use the second cup because, as I mentioned, I'm so tired. I've really enjoyed the Whole30 so far; I really needed this. Thanks, Shelley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 If your coffee is caffeinated, the recommendation is no more than 1-2 cups before noon. Details here: http://whole9life.com/2011/01/the-coffee-manifesto/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdemarco84! Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 Thanks so much. I hadn't seen that yet in my readings. I'm definitely in the adrenal fatigue category, so I'll opt for a nap later. Thanks, again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeadowLily Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Breaking up with coffee is hard to do but so worth it. It's taken me 10 months to go from 12 cups down to about 4 oz. but it no longer has a hold on me. You'll feel better with 1 or none. Kudos to you...opting for the nap.

mgvsquared Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 If you love coffee, and possibly enjoy it as I do as an aperitif, I suggest investing in a Nespresso or like machine. A shot of espresso has much less caffeine than a cup of coffee and I find far easier to enjoy than a cup of bitter black coffee. It's helped me kick my cup of morning coffee. That being said I've never craved coffee. I'd only have one in the morning, and multiple cups at night because not only did I like the taste but I stay up late. I only have 1 or 2 shots at most and doesn't keep me wired like coffee would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
