I never stopped drinking it but made sure I only had one good real coffee a day. First thing in the morning I swapped to tea and then had my coffee when I got to work. Morning tea I would do a Green tea with Jasmine and then in the afternoon a hot chocolate. I hate decaf but I like the idea of half normal/half decaf to get used to the idea if you are finding cutting down difficult.
As others have mentioned at around 6 weeks you might find that you lose the taste for coffee anyway.
Thanks for all the support & ideas. I've gone the hard road so far and gone cold turkey as I think I would talk myslef into having more than just one coffee.
So I've been having moccona decaf & some hot chocolate most days, and I have to say after having the hot chocolate..........the decaf keeps looking better and better
Life is good - thanks for that its a good point and one that I've remembered every time I think about it.
Well a friend that I normally have a coffee with has just started TTC again and is finding it hard to cut back on her coffee too, so we have been meeting for a walk and now a Moccona Decaf
Hehe I've come in late and what i was going to say has already been said
Moccona decaf is by FAR the nicest decaf coffee, glad you've found it :P
I was going to suggest getting some of that and your regular instant, getting a small jar (like a little vegemite one) and mixing the two together with progressively more decaf in each one.
Also it is easier to get decaf in grinds than in instant. I gave up coffee too, but I really like the taste so ... decaf it is. And it sucks when our local supermarket has half an aisle for coffee but only two brands of decaf, and those are NEVER, ever EVER on special
I broke my coffee ban today under exceptional circumstances though... I had a blind fool of a lady come inches away from collecting me on a roundabout on my way back to work. She just stopped and then kept driving she ended up right beside me as I took the turn. I was shaking when I got back to work so had a coffee to calm myself and stew over 'ancient' drivers who can barely see over their own bloomin steering wheels
So far the Moccona hasn't been too bad, RumpledElf I hear ya, not much choice when it comes to Decaf on the shelves, very annoying!
