I have to have my coffee. I probably have three cups a day, but only before noon.

How much better is silence; the coffee cup, the table. How much better to sit by myself like the solitary sea-bird that opens its wings on the stake. Let me sit here for ever with bare things, this coffee cup, this knife, this fork, things in themselves, myself being myself.

Black coffee is the latest fad I have picked up. Then there are my endless cups of chai! I'm trying to cut down and keep it to no more than three cups a day.

Up to a thousand milligrams of caffeine is considered safe for most people, which translates into about 10 cups of coffee a day.

Three mornings a week, I exercise before eating - it's called 'fasted cardio' - to burn fat.
