[QUOTE=callum;689433]Thanks Peeps!

I used to drink a lot of coffee at strong taste, but since the unique taste of energy drinks provides, it took over!

I've got one can left in the fridge.. I'll have that, then call it quits and start drinking water/juice and see what's what!

Cheers!

Don't want to be a harbinger of doom, but if you're serious about kicking the habit AND looking after your teeth, careful that the old fruit juice doesn't become your new regular drink, as this will rot your teeth too.

I always carry a thermos if twinings ginger and lemon tea. It has it's own kick from the ginger grabbing your throat and warming as it goes down. Also dead easy to make up..just lob the bags in the thermos and leave them to stew +/- a few sweeteners or honey. I'm getting good reports from the pilots who have bummed a mug (that doesn't read so well...:-( )
I'm getting into free drinks now... a few pine needles or other hedgerow teas: why pay?
Come march you can even think about tapping a silver birch for drinking sap.. but do plug the hole after and read how you do it.

Interesting conversation, I bet there's lots of people out there with this addiction that don't even realise it.........

maybe one explanation, should have mentioned that earlier when I brought up "eating":
One liter of red bull has about 440 kcal. The recommendation is 2000 kcal per day, most people are a bit higher (and, not surprisingly, overweight).
With 8 x 500 ml you're almost there. Quit and there's a gaping hole in the energy budget you're used to.

You know you have a problem, the fact that you have posted a thread about it proves it. Grow some balls and just stop buying/drinking them! Sounds harsh, but maybe a kick up the arse is whats needed, All those sponsors in your sig might not like having a self confessed addict on their books!
