Caffeine Problems

I will be having surgery in a few weeks and in having the hardest time kicking caffeine. I am a tea drinker. I don't drink soda. Besides the awful headaches I feel like I can choke someone by the end of the day.. Any ideals how to cut it out?

I have 3 weeks till I start my liver shrinking diet, and that means I need to give up the soda by then. Tomorrow I'm going to limit myself to 3 and do that for a few days then drop myself to 2 for a few days and then just one. Crossing my fingers it works for me!
