Still trying to fight the good fight. The longest stretch I've gone without coffee or caffeine was six months. Which was essentially obliterated on a trip to Germany where they have fine Italian cafe's serving fine Italian espresso ;)</p> <p>I prefer green tea over black. But from what I've read, you loose a lot of the antioxidant benefits when it's been decaffeinated. Overall I don't mind the caffeine that is contained within it. It's the excessive amounts I tend to take in from drinking too much coffee. Because I too am a Starbucks drinker, and it's well know Starbucks coffee has more caffeine per cup then any other brand of coffee.</p> Thanks Bruce. Still trying to fight the good fight.

I've given up coffee and caffeine several times only to backslide over time. Currently I am entirely off caffeine and have been for about 6 months. I still drink decaf and decaf tea and eat dark chocolate, each of which, of course, contains small amounts of caffeine.</p> <p>I tried green tea (decaffeinated) but it didn't seem to have as much flavor as black tea.</p> <p>MY favorite coffee for flavor is Starbucks, especially their espresso and french roasts. Unfortunately, I find even their decaf has too much caffeine for me so I am stuck with lesser coffees. I can't stand Dunkin Donuts coffee or the stuff in the office by-the-cup machine.</p> Good luck, Jim. I’ve given up coffee and caffeine several times only to backslide over time.
