My coffee cup is smiling … someone help me.
For those of you that have actually listened to me on other mediums ( I don’t talk about it much here ), you know that I’m a strong believer in the idea that high insulin resistance and low insulin sensitivity are why LOTS of people are fat. You guys also probably know I’m a big time caffeine addict. I think I’ve been perpetually buzzed from caffeine since I was about 8 years old and found out if I could drink sweet tea/coffee/mountain dew, I could stay up longer playing video games. Oh yeah, its been madness. I have periods where I quit, get back on, quit, get back on. It doesn’t help that I’m following a career path where this type of behavior is encouraged. Ha ha, caffeine is my insulin resistance increasing agent. Oh yeah, the one I just can’t let go of.
So for the past two weeks I’ve been off the addiction known as coffee (and black tea). The only caffeine you might see in my life is in the preworkout shake and the cup of green tea. I’m back at work and my coffee cup that knows me oh so well and hasn’t seen or felt me in two weeks is excited with glee, turns around and says, "Hey Mike. How you doing? I KNOW you want to fill me up and drink from me. Lets go down to the machine and get one of those black seattle roasts you know you love. NO SUGAR!!!!!"
I’m at odds here.
Oh the life of a mad man that lives in a world of "anthropomorphism" from time to time. Time for some … green tea.

That’s too funny! The visual reminds me of something you would see in a sitcom or something!

Personally, I think that the pendulum of social perception towards coffee is ridiculous. Instead of appreciating the overall benefits of coffee (taste, diuretic affect, energy boost); people either say it’s totally bad because of the effect in the body’s production of cortisol or the increase of insulin; or, it totally good.
EVERYTHING IN MODERATION MIKE512D. get rid of that coffee mug or only fill it half way. Tell the lady at D&D, no sugar, and put in 2 or 3 packs yourself.
I’M WORKING THIRD SHIFT RIGHT NOW AND, DAMN IT, I WANT MY COFFEE!!!
Also, i’m going to look up anthropomorphism; and, if I find out that you were cursing at me, it’s yo’ ass.

LOL…. don’t do it!
the key is to find something to replace it or keep your mind off of it.
better to put the cup in the trashcan (outside) — that’s a good start.
