I've tried a lot of different breakfast schemes over the years - I don't like eating breakfast. For many years, I drank a can of regular Coke for breakfast... Heh. In my defense, that was the only caffeine I drank those days.
Now I keep trying different "interesting" cereals but I keep falling back on plain old Cheerios. I feel best when I have Cheerios for breakfast. And coffee... I cut back to 1 big mug made with 1/2 caffeine and 1/2 not caffeine... Cutting back more than that's gonna hurt, I think.
