Okay, light enough I guess - an update on my caffeine contest. I now have coffee only when I am out at a restaurant, and even then I sometimes drink just water. Thus it is correct to say that I have a caffeine intake no more than once a day, and usually none at all. I found Postum and it substitutes nicely for coffee at breakfast and lunch when at home. I use peppermint herbal tea for dinner and Sleepytime herbal tea before retiring for the night. I just had some Lemon herbal tea and I found I'll have to avoid letting it steep too long as it was rather strong. How well do I sleep now? There seems to be an improvement this week after about two weeks of reducing the caffeine to very small amounts. Tuesday night I had 6 1/2 hours straight through and last night about 5. Oh, and I eat no chocolate now. Thanks again for everyone's advice two weeks ago. -- Spirit World
