    It's fine for you, lots of benefits to drinkin coffee.

    Assuming you're not loadin it with cream, sugar or other things........

    Coffee is fine.... it is what you put in it that is the problem.

    A 1-tbsp. serving of sugar adds 49 calories, half-and-half adds 20 calories and whipped cream adds 52 calories to your coffee.

    Coffee is good for the body. However, there are studies that says too much coffee is also bad. So I suggest that aside from the coffee you are addicted, try some easy healthy meals.

    I love coffee as well, but from a nutitional standpoint you really want to limit how much you have as it builds up acids in your

    stomach and slows your bodies digestive system. . . alcohol does this as well. . . So make sure that you limit how much and drink

    plenty of water along with it as each cup depletes your body of 2 cups of water. . .Good luck.

    Too much is probably not a good idea, but in moderation it helps speed up the metabolism post-workout.

    Caffeine addict here, since 1992! By the way, I was 7 in 1992. I remember being in the second grade and filling out the food pyramid. I asked, "Where do I put coffee?" All my classmates were like you drink coffee?? I thought it was normal for a child to drink coffee! Must be a Mexican thing to feed your young children coffee. :P

    I used to not drink coffee, but now I find myself drinking nearly a pot every morning. I use the low fat creamer and splenda. Coffee also acts as an appetite suppressor for me.

    Yep, addicted! I used to drink a lot but I've cut down a bit. I work overnights so I have to be careful I don't drink coffee before leaving at 7a. I have 1 cup when I wake up around 3 or 4p, 1 cup around 7 or 8p, and another cup before I leave for work at 10:30p.

    All I put in my coffee is 1 packet of sweetner and I sprinkle some cinnamon powder in the grounds before brewing.
