Coffee doesn't give me energy, but it just makes me happy when I'm drinking it.

Here's an idea: give up complaining for 5 days. I tried this and failed miserably.

Back in highschool (this is over 10 years ago now *shiver*) there was a girlfriend of mine that would drink a can of coca-cola every morning. I challenged her to skip it for a couple days and the first morning? She was shaking like a leaf and pale, sweating profusely, VERY irritable...poor thing had to cave because she was just SO miserable. Caffeine addiction is no joke people!

I could totally stop coffe or tea for five days, but you'll never make me stop chocolate for so long

Three weeks ago I stopped drinking coffee because of my anxiety and how stressed I was. I was a coffee addict for two years I then started drinking green tea and it's amazing the difference I felt!! I am more relaxed, less stressed and I am calm!! It's worth it!!

She is 100% a coffee addict, are you? Thanks, Lucie. xx

I've given up processed sugar, certain fruits, chocolate and coffee for weeks and sometimes months at a time throughout my life. I don't think I could ever give up the Internet for more than a few of hours.

I'm a barista and every time I promise not to drink any coffee, I drink even more coffee than I usually do. I'm addicted. The smell, the warmth, the buzzy feeling, the alertness it gives me. I NEED A COFFEE

Tea. I could not give up tea. Tea is amazing. I don't pay attention to if the tea has caffeine in it or not. But I believe most of the ones that I drink most frequently do. But tea is so good I just love it so much.

5 days of Not eating out, or buying food from restaurants or drive thrus

[myriamnie]

I didn't see anyone else notice this in the comments, but Lucie's teeth are so PERFECT!
Besides this (I'm not crazy, I just wish I had her teeth) I need to say that I watched every single episode of Try Living With Lucie and LOVE the series as well as her great personality!

[FarheenMeraj]

I love this series. And Lucie is so adorable
Can you do *5 days of (Ramadan) fasting*? (and only eating halal food when breaking the fast - after sunset and before sunrise)

[rociozagone]

I couldn't give up music. I'm addicted.

[laurenleith]

5 days of giving. Each day you give something that you own to someone else.

[phophisms]

I decided to give coffee up for a week and see what I feel like at the end of it. I was just fine so I kind of gave it up altogether. It has been 5 weeks now and I feel fine. I still drink it sometimes though, like every two weeks, socially. Love your videos Lucie

[aquajewlz]

I would love to see Lucie go one week drinking de-caff instead of regular coffee. That way she could still get the feelings, smell, etc. and we could understand better how caffeine effects her.

[Dootty]

Watching this whilst drinking coffee 😂😂

[hmeetscrazychic]

Honestly, I'm only subscribed to refinery29 because I love Lucie!! Haha #majorfangirl 😘❤️💕

[paigeknight]

There is something amazing about a hot cup of coffee or tea. the steam, the smells, the warmth. My english friends call it a "Hug in a mug."

I could never give up sugar for a week. It's as much mental as physical.
