I have my travel mug of coffee in the morning. Occasionally I will treat myself and order from Caribou Coffee (a chain like Starbucks, but better IMO).
At lunch I have a can of Coke Zero or something similar. Other than that I try to just drink lots and lots of water throughout the day/at home.

I drink a mug of tea almost every day at home all year round, but in the winter it is definitely a daily thing and sometimes more than one.

I drink pepsi when we have it.

I never choose decaf.

if I order out, it is at Tim Horton's, and I get a large tea, 1 cream, 2 sugar

I drink coke, a lot of it. It's a bad amount. I'm trying to cut down. I don't like coffee or tea, so caffeine is coke.

I'm not really a coffee drinker, if I am in desperate need of caffeine I will drink it. I mostly drink coke, I try to drink diet even though it is no better.

chocolate i dont eat a ton of it normally, maybe a few times a week. When not pregnant i like pop too, but we dont usually buy it so i only get it if we buy it as a treat or if we go out to eat, so only a few times a month. I also like Tim Hortons iced caps, but i dont often get them either maybe a few times a year

I dont like coffee or tea, unless its that powdered iced tea, i love that stuff, if we have it in the house i will drink 2-3 glasses a day

I make coffee at home every morning and usually drink about 2 cups. If I am out, I occasionally stop at starbucks or Dunkin donuts. I rarely ever drink coke. I was thinking of getting a keurig (single cup coffee machine) but I am afraid i will drink too much coffee that way since it's so convenient.

Does anyone have a Keurig and do you like it?

Coffee! I drink a cup every morning to wake me up before I get into the shower (at 5:45 AM, uhg) and then I take a thermos of it to work, It holds about 3 cups. I never drink it all though, it gets cold after a couple hrs and I toss it.

Once in a while on the weekend if we are out I will grab one from Dunks, usually just a medium regular, I am boring.

I don't drink decaf, I just try not to have any caffeine after noon. I hate soda and never drink it.

I prefer Pop, either Coke or Dr. Pepper, sometimes Diet Coke and sometimes Mountain Dew on occassion. We always have Coke and DP at home. About 1-2 times a month I want a Mocha Coffee or Frappucino from Starbucks. Yum Yum!

I'm not a coffee drinker but I love tea. I drink cup after cup of hot tea throughout the day, especially in the winter. I also drink too much soda. BUT when I'm pregnant I'm really good about drinking decaf. I drink a lot of Caffeine Free Diet Coke and I'm fine with decaf tea...can't taste the difference. I am usually caffeine free at home in case I drink it while out (can't usually find decaf in restaurants/gas stations) because I try really hard to stay under 200mg a day.

Chocolate is a whole other story...
