@jorijn I could never, I have at least reduced my consumption to on average probably around 200-250 mg / day. And a 5h no drinking zone before sleep, which has helped a lot.

@crit, it does! But it could take up to 18 hours for a cup of coffee to leave your system, and its effects stack.

You can always try it, the sleep benefits will show within the first week.

@jorijn I might just slowly decrease my consumption like I've been doing for a while now. Maybe I'll get into decaf eventually since I quite enjoy the taste.

@jorijn congratulations! we switched to half caff a couple years ago but can't quite quit. 😆🥱

@jorijn to me slowly reducing coffee to none has show no side-effect. When I am in "social occasions" I get a decafeinated one and enjoy the taste

@koolinus yeah, I might be making things too hard for myself by just going cold turkey about it.

Doesn't decaf also contain slight amounts of caffeine?

@jorijn @koolinus a very miniscule amount but decaf has other things that sort of wake you up. French roast is very close to decaf btw

@jorijn My brain fog has finally started to clear. 😂

Sleep benefits are amazing. I wake up not feeling tired, and in need of a coffee.

@mhamzahkhan how long did it take? :-D

mhamzahkhan, 2 months ago

@jorijn Well my last coffee was 3 weeks ago.... and the brain fog only started feeling better a couple of days ago.... so maybe 2.5 weeks or so haha

@mhamzahkhan oof, nice that you followed through. Looking forward to it myself.
