Re: Coffee

Every one in my house drinks coffee, although one housemate goes out for it and never drinks homebrew. I take mine with creamer or milk, and sometimes(rarely) sugar. I will sometimes have an instant decaf with milk after noon, as I cannot sleep if I have caffeine after 12 pm.

One step forward, two steps back. A familiar story for me. I did lose a couple of pounds but have to make sure I eat well. Haven't been doing that good for a bit this past while.
