Great job and welcome to the club. One fun fact about me is that I've never had a cup of coffee in my life. My parents always needed it before they did anything, so as a kid, I decided that I didn't want to be dependent on a drink that would hold up Christmas presents (for example). I've had a few sips by accident from wrong drink orders, etc., and will never touch the stuff. I've surely had plenty of slow mornings and days without caffeine, but feel that I need to provide my own energy/with nutrition. I also haven't had soda in nearly 8 years besides the random time it's in a mixed drink I'm handed. Since you mentioned it, I also haven't had an energy drink in the last 4-5 years as well and will keep it that way. While you had a reason to have it for your blood pressure, I've always felt that they were a scapegoat and cheat code for making up for bad decisions for an unnatural boost.

Plus, think of all the $$ you've saved by beating your habit? Compounding rewards there.
