I have a vague long-term goal of weening myself off of my coffee addiction.
Recently I was down to one cup a day, though in the past week I went on vacation and my daily habit ballooned up to 2-4 cups per day.
So today I'm going to try to tamp it back down to a firm 2, then gradually decrease it again. I doubt I'll be able to fully eliminate it as a daily habit for several more years, but the idea is that I should one day be able to enjoy coffee recreationally again, instead of just having this dependence on it.
The problem is that I use coffee in the morning, for its...um, "assistive" properties...to, you know, start my day off in an unburdened way...because otherwise this activity would naturally want to happen in the afternoon which is very inconvenient. So a lot of this will depend on how thoroughly I have retrained my lower digestive system.
