Coffee drinkers ……or whatever

How much coffee do you drink in the morning?
I’m on my second cup (8 oz cups) and likely to have two more before noon.

I know of one person that does not drink coffee but drinks coke in the morning.
So if you’re not a morning coffee drinker what do you drink and how much before noon?

I normally drink one cup, when I decide I need the pick me up.

Normally I get something along the lines of a french vanilla cappucino, but I have been known to go straight black now and again.

I don't drink it in the morning but I might after dinner with dessert.

It's usually not more than 1 cup... and maybe a half refill.

I'll drink two cups in the morning and sip another cup till early afternoon.

Depends on how easy/free it is to get. When I am in the office I'll probably have 3 8oz cups before lunch. Now at the current client I have about 2 cups. When I was driving an hour and more away I would get an XL from Sheetz each morning.

I'm 40 and have yet to try coffee. According to everyone I meet, I will when I'm older...but I've been hearing that since I was about 20.

I drink two full 14 oz. cups at home, then come to work and fill my travel cup (probably 16-20 oz.) up once or twice. After that, I will normally consume roughly a 2-liters worth of Diet Mt. Dew until bedtime. I live on caffeine.

2-3 10 oz. home brew that light will not penetrate. The stronger the better.

Unfortunately, I am unable to go without it, I miss my daily standard, I have a headache that incapacitates me until I get some coursing through my veins.

I'm not sure how many ounces my cup is, probably 12 or 14. I get that filled up every weekday morning at Starbucks. Once or twice a week I'll get a (free) refill in the afternoon.

Normally 1 cup, maybe one other at some point but too much reaks havoc on my stomach.

I find that Cocaine is much more efficient, so I just do a line whenever I'm feeling down.

I smoke way too much on coke. A cup in the morn then a travel mug for the commute. I'll usually hit the button when I get home if theres a cup or 2 left.

1 cup in the morning or 2 cups of green tea. I used to be a diet mt dew and coffee aholic. I have felt much better since I quit. The first few days of caffine headaches were bad though.

I have been debating quitting Diet Dew, just to save some money. In what specific ways has it made you feel better? Maybe that will help the incentive.

You could always switch to green tea. It's good stuff.

Want incentive? Consider that downing multiple sodas a day for a year or two will rot the hell out of your teeth.

I have more energy and don't crash in the evening. Also, the carbonation + caffine just made wanting to exercise let alone exercising tough and made me very dehydrated. I still drink some dews on the weekend but it has made my week much more productive.

Grande Pike (16 oz), 2 sugars.

Every day in the morning. You can tell when I haven't had it too.

DIET Mt. Dew. No sugar. So how will the DIET Mt. Dew rot my teeth?

I have a 12 oz cup of the english toffee capuchino from duke and duchesse. Then 2 16 oz diet sodas the rest of the day.

Four 8 oz cups in the first hour at work each day - but it sounds better when I say "2 cups", because my 4-cup coffee maker will fill my mug twice. Plus, I might stop by at Tim Horton's or BP to kick-start before I fire up my carafe.

And my theme song is "Stress" by Jim's Big Ego.

In the summer only about 2 cups a day.......now that it's chilly out its between 4 and 6. Nothing hits the spot on a freezing morning when I climb in my car and turn on the seat warmer and have a hot cup of coffee.
