Hi Leigh,
I have found the same with coffee. I loved the caffeine hit and thought I would keep coffee forever. But I find now that I really don't want caffeinated (or decaffeinated) coffee. Even if I think I am craving it when I go out somewhere and order it I find I have a few sips and don't want any more.
This is my second time through the Steps and this time I am taking it really slowly. I am on Step 3.

: Mosaic,are you saying that you
: can: No, Leigh, I drank caffeinated coffee
: all the way thorough the steps. I
: didnt think I would ever stop it.: but with step 6 something funny
: happened by itself. I didnt fancy
: coffee much. I was surprised. I
: did move it to meals at that
: point, having learnt that
: technique at step 3: where I learnt it wasnt as much fun
: at all as having it elsewhere
: That was telling. I think I was
: very addicted to caffeine. I did a
: taper as Kathleens instructions,
: and since then I have chosen
: decaf, I have some in my shake and
: a couple or three during the day.:
.I don't think: What I discovered about step 3 = its
: got some nano steps and guidelines
: and yet its incredibly individual.
: So I dont think theres any concern
: with any of us doing step 3
: 'correctly' We experience things
: and learn a lot So you dont
: have to worry about it at all in
: advance. Or even when you are
: there ...: ... I know this because I worried
: like mad about everything in
: advance and then it did just flow
: by itself... Ilearnt to focus on
: the step I was on. ( I thought
: that was impossible as well ): So I was impressed to read your
: earlier post about shakes and
: sharing your thoughts, asking for
: others experiences it was a
: great bit of step 1 work
