My husband has something in mind that he would like me to develop a transfer addiction to!

I love my black coffee/vitamin gummies break in the afternoon. I don't drink it all day long, but the 1-2 cups/day I do drink are very soothing. Your post title should read, "I am such a coffee addict, YAY!"

I really, really wish I could do black. Tried to give up the sf additive and cream. My cholesterol is sky high, so I did manage to succussfully switch to unsweetened vanilla almond milk and now do either au lait or latte with that. Much better! Still add a lot of SF Salted Caramel syrup though. I got back home a bit ago and my daughter was practically crying she was laughing so hard. I was so desparate to get the almond milk heated and frothed, couldn't find my stuff, couldn't remember if I had made 1 or 2 pods worth of expresso, etc. I tell you, just plain out of sorts without my fix!

I am right there with you Cappy. My NUT back at the beginning of the process tried valiently to give it up, then to just cut back, and finally just put her hands up and said we would just leave it alone and concentrate on other areas :) Even with the stomach issues/acid I am trying valiently to maintain my addiction. I did try a low acid coffee and that was what triggered the switch to almond milk, so I suppose I should focus on what I did do instead of what I failed to give up :)

Coffee. Blech. I don't get it. I also don't like hot beverages at all. I'll take mine barely liquid, just on the edge of freezing.

That is incomprehensible to me. I feel like that about meat. The only thing worse than putting meat in a jar would be to turn it into barely liquid, just on the edge of freezing. eewwwwwww!

That's a date, lol. I will even eat the steak instead of just eye it suspicously and lament over what the poor cow had to endure to make it to the plate!

I skip solid food and instead drink coffee mixed with protein powder and milk for at least one, sometimes two meals every day. Warm liquids just feel good, and I never have to play the roulette game of wondering whether it will **** my stomach off or not like dense proteins sometimes do.
