    You can mitigate the coffee stomach issues by adding a cup yogurt to your morning. It can’t be the shitty stuff like yoplait, but it does do enough to help with that.

    I found out I was now lactose intolerant when I kept having breakfast shakes or chocolate milk before work and was dying and having awful shits the first half of my day

    I love coffee, a lot. I love the smell, the taste, the ritual of making it. Once you’re drinking it a lot, it’s also very hard to cut back because if get those massive headaches and you feel like your brain is foggy.

    But suddenly I was feeling angry, irritable, had trouble sleeping and was not following along the material from my master’s research that I used to have no problem reading. So I forced myself to quit caffeine. Ooooooh boy. Turns out drinking a lot of coffee really does mess you up. The first couple of days were terrible, but by the fourth day I was waking up singing with the birds as if I was a Disney princess.

    Now I still drink coffee, but only when I wake up and only one cup. No more than that.

      Thanks! I like the triangle as a name for it. I went to Japan this summer and it took me forever to figure out they call pour over/the triangle “drip,” (which is what I think of as machine coffee). Gotta standardize these names!
