I drink Decaf, so not much.

For years my Mom had a cup of coffee every morning... to get the day started. But she also had to have a cup every night before bed.

Never did figure that out.

I get to work and have 3-4 cups of coffee. Then a large tea or two for lunch, with one to go if I'm at a restaurant. Then at dinner another 2 to 3 glasses of tea (all unsweet). So how much is that??

ETA: had to go look it up. Dunkin Donuts 10oz has 150mg caffeine, so that would be 450-600 for "breakfast," then Lipton iced tea has 55mg per 8 oz, and my glasses are likely closer to 12 (after ice dilution), so that's about 82mg per glass, so that's 250 per meal lunch and dinner, so another 500....

So I voted wrong, I'm not 400 or so, I'm in the 1000 to 1100mg per day range. I had no idea.

well, its a Monday, started at 7AM and on my second cup already

while I was in engineering school studying I was drinking between 8 and 10 cups a day

now I've cut way back to about 2 - give or take

I don't even like coffee but I'll drink a cup when I'm having trouble getting started in the morning. Two or three days a week I'll have a Coke or something similar with lunch. These days I normally drink more water than either coffee or soda.

Mine is usually in the form of a preworkout supplement. Two scoops of cellucor's C4 is 300mg of caffeine at once. I barely feel it. I used to consume an energy drink later in the day but have been cutting that out lately.

Shit I didn't know that. That pretty much adds +50% to my daily intake then. From ~350 to about ~500

Two cups (Kirkland Signature Pacific Bold in the Keurig) at breakfast, just about every day.

About half the days, I might have a diet Coke at lunch or in the afternoon.

Occasionally, maybe 3 or 4 times a month, a cup of tea (Earl Gray) afternoon or evening.

Probably about 30 ozs from 7:30 am to 11:30 am.

Zero. I've had maybe 2 oz of coffee in my entire life.

No idea

about three cups of coffee per day

one or two in the morning -- one around 3pm.

------------------------------

One 16oz mug every morning but that's it. No other caffeine or sugars the rest of the day.

None anymore.
I used to drink coffee all morning, then switched to diet soda in the afternoon. Then I got a kidney stone.
following that, I quit the diet soda but continued on coffee until it felt like I was developing anxiety and then acid reflux.

I believe I developed a sensitivity to it. While I miss my morning coffee, I don't miss it.

I drink two cups of good, dark roast coffee in the morning. I use a 20 oz Yeti tumbler & those two cups can last until 10-11 AM. Then a cup of green tea while watching tv in the evening.

Other than the occasional bottle of Stewarts Root Beer with my pizza or cheese burger, I never drink soda.
