I went to the doctor today and this question was on the medical history form. I put 10, but it's actually probably 30+. i mean, even as i type this post, i've got a cup of coffee in each hand

i need an intervention

8/4/2011 9:08:57 PM

I drink two cups of sweet tea at Jersey Mike's about once a week. That's it though.

8/4/2011 9:09:44 PM

Too many.
Probably in the 25-35 range.
I only had one Diet Mt. Dew and one Red Bull today and I passed out on the sofa after work.

8/4/2011 9:11:41 PM

I drink approx 3 coffees per day, and 1-2 Diet Coke's so 5 a day minimum. I'd guess 35-40.

8/4/2011 9:11:43 PM

like 4 a day

8/4/2011 9:12:08 PM

Oh sometimes I'll have maybe two Dr. Peppers a week.

So I guess I'm at a max of maybe 5 per week.

But I don't drink coffee, and I know I'm in the minority here.

8/4/2011 9:13:01 PM

man y'all are gross

8/4/2011 9:13:09 PM

i had cut it back to one a day with lunch, but i lost my thermos thing and it's been hot, so i buy sodas instead, so maybe like 3-4 a day.

8/4/2011 9:14:08 PM

Dear lord I drink so much coffee and iced tea I don't think I could even estimate!

8/4/2011 9:14:36 PM

1-2 cups of iced coffee a day.

8/4/2011 9:14:57 PM

1 or 2

8/4/2011 9:15:06 PM

ummmmm probably like 2 sodas or a soda and an iced coffee 4 days a week so 8. maybe 8-10.

i LOVE iced coffee so hard though i am readdicted so this number might go up

dunkin donuts FTW

plus

i get a donut too. that is bad. i need a new way to drive to work. I'M WEAK.

8/4/2011 9:15:37 PM

0-4/week.

I always put that for alcohol as well.

8/4/2011 9:17:02 PM

7ish

8/4/2011 9:17:11 PM

Large coffee at work everyday and usually at least 1-2 caffeinated sodas around lunch.

My last coffee was Tuesday, and I ran out of caffeine soda at the apartment. Trying to drink more water, so I dropped it altogether. Yesterday had a major headache and this evening its kinda coming back. Hate being addicted to shit.

8/4/2011 9:17:22 PM

Dr. Pepper >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> coffee

8/4/2011 9:17:58 PM

Between meals:
{
I drink a gallon(from sams club) of Cranberry + Apple|Blueberry|Null every two weeks

I drink 1/2 gallon milk every two weeks. (I usually have to pour 1/4th out due to expiration)

I drink water directly from the faucet without a cup as many times as I can per day.
}

With Meals
I drink a soda with every meal, usually sierra mist or root beer.


If I need energy I drink Mountain Dew, Sunkist so that the caffeine has more of a punch. That occurs from 0 to 2 times a day.


So to answer your question: I drink from 5 to 14 caffeinated beverages/week

8/4/2011 9:23:29 PM

not many, if any... I'll have 1, maybe 2 5-hour energy drinks, but I don't really get on the caffeine train

I don't like coffee (makes me sick to the stomach), and soda's are really only for mixing drinks in my house

8/4/2011 9:23:38 PM

see i like never drink soda with meals (ok not never: w/ fast food i prob do)

i usually drink one in the morning (or i might drink coffee instead) on the way to work

then one around 2pm after lunch when i'm all...ahhhh dying and want to go home.

w/ meals it is water.

8/4/2011 9:24:23 PM

a lot less than what I used to

a 12-pack of canned sodas will last a couple weeks maybe

8/4/2011 9:25:44 PM

I might have 1 or 2 a month. Caffeine screws me up.

8/4/2011 9:31:00 PM

I have the occasional Coke, or Sweet Tea...but that's maybe once a week or less. However, I drink probably multiple cups of coffee a day. So easily 20+ for the week.

8/4/2011 9:37:39 PM

Like 70 or so a week with a line of coke to get me over the hump.

8/4/2011 9:39:54 PM

one a day for the most part, sometimes an extra, so on average maybe 10

8/4/2011 9:40:24 PM

between sugar free amp and grande iced coffees, prob 5-10 per week.

8/4/2011 9:41:14 PM

caffeine has no noticeable effect on me, but carbonation sometimes is too strong for my taste if i havent had it in a while

8/4/2011 9:41:26 PM

I go through a 12 pack of diet coke in about 2 days.

and that's just what i keep at home.

i also have a few cups of coffee a week and have diet cokes at other places

8/4/2011 9:43:29 PM

anywhere from 1-5.

i am not a big fan of caffeine.

8/4/2011 9:47:34 PM

honestly i've always wondered about this about myself

imma start monday and give you the results


srsly. i will not change my habits

[Edited on August 4, 2011 at 9:48 PM. Reason : ]

8/4/2011 9:48:14 PM

I already answered but I'm going to make an itemized list:

1 Diet Coke at 8:40am on way to work*
1 Cup Coffee at 9:00am at work
1 Cup Coffee at 1:00pm at work
1 Cup Coffee at 4:00pm at work
1 Diet Coke at 6:30pm at home*
1 Diet Coke at 7:30pm at home

I always drink three coffees a day at work, and I'm pretty much a lock for one diet coke, the other two cokes are contingent on supply and demand.

8/4/2011 9:55:00 PM

12oz diet mountain dew for lunch
~40 of diet coke or diet mountain dew for lunch
preworkout drink with 200-600mg caffeine.

it gets a lot worse when I'm travelling a lot - sodas get replaced with energy drinks every 2 hours.

8/4/2011 10:07:51 PM

0. i quit soda a while back bc i didn't like being dependent on it in the morning. i really hated getting headaches just bc i'm 30 mins late drinking a pepsi. i never have liked coffee. it took a few weeks to get over it, but i feel a lot better now.

8/4/2011 10:09:17 PM

I honestly drink maybe one can of caffeinated soda maybe once a month. In the past year or so I've really been trying to drink more water. I've always hated the taste of coffee and tea, so the only time I ever even have caffeine is if I'm staying up for a midnight movie showing or something. I'll drink Sprite, Ginger Ale, or root beer maybe once a week but they aren't caffeinated.

8/4/2011 11:01:20 PM

lying to the doctor only hurts yourself bro

8/4/2011 11:02:04 PM

We have free soda fountains at work, but I'm trying to quit. Currently 4-5 a week.

8/4/2011 11:03:44 PM

Probably 30 ish like you qntm. I buy a 12 pack of generic soda at HT each week and I keep three different types of caffeinated mints on my desk (hooray multipacks on amazon). This is the only thing keeping me awake when I work for more than 8 hours in a given day, and hell it's usually the only thing keeping me awake on a normal day. Brain-draining work requires this kind of shit so I can keep focused on all the little errors that I catch each day.

8/4/2011 11:06:48 PM

I drink at least 1-2 cups of coffee per day at work plus probably 1-5 diet sodas per day depending. I'd say anywhere between 8-30 in a week depending. Pretty wide range, really depends on how long I'm at work.

8/4/2011 11:10:40 PM

I have between 4 and 8 per week. Unfortunately they have the energy vitamin water at work which has caffeine. I drink one of those most mornings. And then on occasion I'll have some coffee or a diet soda. Preferably cherry coke zero or diet cherry Dr. Pepper. Those are like treats or desert to me

8/4/2011 11:21:33 PM

somewhere between 3 and 10

depends on how many times I get fast food (I always get sweet tea) and how much vodka I drink (RED BULL)

8/4/2011 11:23:46 PM

0 - I stopped drinking soda, caffeinated or otherwise, about 5 years ago and haven't looked back

8/4/2011 11:28:35 PM

7-10 per week

caffeinated vitamin water zero ftw

[Edited on August 4, 2011 at 11:32 PM. Reason : ]

8/4/2011 11:31:40 PM

i used to down caffeine all the time, but rarely did i drink coffee

these days it's water for this guy...i just feel healthier not consuming caffeinated drinks and instead infuse my body with the agua

To expand on this...I'm trying to cut back. I normally have a Slim Fast shake and a Diet Mt. Dew for breakfast along with a slew of pills (Multi Vitamin, Fish Oil, Glucosamine Condroitin + MSM, Claritin, etc.) This isn't part of some starvation diet...If anything it's a lazy diet that I can drink on the way to the office and it leaves me with nothing to clean up. It does start my day with caffeine though.

Then I'll usually have more caffeine around lunch time. If I work out on my lunch break I'll have it both before the workout and an hour or two after which puts me at three minimum before 3:00.

If I have a pre-workout supplement then I also get a mega-dose of caffeine thrown into the mix.

Then I'll crash out and almost need something so I'm not a worthless sack of shit after I get done with work.

It all adds up pretty quickly. I'm trying to cut back to a max of two per day + pre-workout supplements.

8/5/2011 2:44:23 AM

I don't drink sodas

Before I graduated I was having a cup of coffee M-F

Now I'm trying to stay away from the stuff so I've reduced it to fixing myself a half cup of coffee once a week at work. I think that's fair hehe.

in the last two days I've had like 6 or 7 coke zeros because I've been in a "leadership planning offsite" meeting. Without it my ADD makes me go fucking apeshit sitting in a room for 9 hours a day.

Normally I dont drink anything with caffeine in it.

8/5/2011 3:06:45 AM

my ideal day would be:

2 coffees in the AM
1 2-liter throughout the day

I drink it straight out of the bottle too... carrying around a 2 liter like it's a 20oz makes me look normal-sized

8/5/2011 4:20:42 AM

I almost never drink soft drinks, coffee, etc. I also eat deserts like once or twice a year. Don't like sweets.

yea the caffeine headaches are what made me cut way back. i'm down to around 5 a week now, compared to 20+ before
