I switched to decaf in 2000. The headaches were not pleasant but didn't last too long. Now if I drink regular it most often (though not always???) really makes me feel awful...shakes, jitters, sweats...like my heart will beat out of my chest. And,it will definately keep me awake at night. Anything with caffeine does that now. I don't react negatively to many things but am really glad I'm no longer drinking hi-test.

This is why I love Atkins 1972...I didn't and WON'T give up my coffee. Giving up bread was hard enough.

E.T.A. Take something for the headaches and drink plenty of water. It should help, good luck!

I had to gradually go off of caffeine and I took a couple Tylenol. Now I feel great! You can do it!

When I get a caffeine headache, I only want someone to take a ball bat to my head!

i tried to give up caffiene, but i just can't. simply not workable for me. And it hasn't hampered my weight loss this time, nor did it when i did really well back in 2003 (lost nearly 60 pounds).

But of course who knows - i might be doing better without it... but I just don't think I can do it.

LOL. I'm not "picking" on you. It's just your comment made me smile. My dear Mom (R.I.P.) always used to tell me, "Can't never did anything". I wonder if today's Moms still say that.

hehe very true

Instead of "can't", it's probably more accurate to say this: my multiple attempts to give up caffeine have thus far been unsuccessful, and I have not further plans to attempt it, lol.

I will say this, though - - if caffeine was preventing me from losing weight, I would definitely work to give it up. And who knows, maybe someday

I feel for you, girlie! My caffeine is one thing that I WILL NOT give up, unless it was a matter of life or death. And if anyone other than my PCP tries to convince me that I need to give up caffeine, it might be their death, JK
