    You will have to pry the coffee out of my cold, dead hands. I am not giving it up willingly and asking me to do so could result in bodily harm.

    Coffee is one of those wonderful things that's both healthy AND enjoyable! Take advantage of it! Just don't over do it on cream/milk and sugar. Get used to drinking it almost black or with a splash of milk.

    Coffee is an appetite supressant, and it will also help you exercise harder!

    Everything in moderation. I dont think its bad for you. I can't live without my coffee in the morning. It would have to be found to be extremley bad for me to stop drinking it.

    I am a recent convert from a day long tea drinker with much sugar (English by birth, it's unavoidable) to coffee and cream in the AM only, I have issues with unwinding so I avoid caffeine later in the day.

    I have to say I love the energy kick early on and anything that cuts sugar is good by me.

    Coffee is healthy. Especially the more of it you drink. Reduces risks of diabetes, stroke, heart attack, cancer, Alzheimer's, dementia and hypertension. And that's with drinking 6-7 cups a day.

    Don't be scared of coffee. It hydrates and provides tons of antioxidant benefits, and the caffeine provides a boost. The only thing that makes coffee bad is when you use more cream and sugar than you do coffee.

    Couldn't of said it better myself. :laugh: I haven't cut it out but have cut it down. No longer 4 pots of super strong coffee a day. I have slowly over many years cut it back to a few cups a day not a full pots worth. And when I want my treats of flavored coffees and frappe's I make my own at home lower in calories that way. But mostly I just drink it black.

    I drink 1-2 cups of coffee a day, just right in the morning. I have 1 in the morning before I go to work(probably 2-3 times a week) and then I take a cup with me to work. Once that is gone, I don't have anymore coffee the rest of the day and the cup I take to work, is usually empty by 10.

    I also don't log my coffee or creamer. I don't use that and it hasn't affected my progress. Coffee/creamer is the ONLY thing I don't log but it works for me.

    Now, if you are one of those people that uses a little bit of coffee up their cup of cream - definitely log it!

    In all seriousness, I've been drinking coffee (with flavored creamer) all along and I've lost 56lbs and kept it off for 2 years.

    I'd still drink coffee as a zombie! MMM brains... dipped in my coffee!

    6-7 cups a day is more than a pick me up, that sounds similar to cocaine or crack.. That being said I lovee black coffee (no sugar no cream, they ruin the yummy dark flavor). I drink 2-3 cups a week and have lost/maintained weight loss. It helps me as an appetite suppressant in the afternoon.

    So, 100 oz or more of water is ok, but 36-42 oz of coffee a day is crack addiction? A cup of coffee is 6 oz.

    as long as you don't put a ton of creamer and sugar in it i think it's good for you even when dieting.

    It should increase your metabolic rate because caffeine is a stimulant, therefore your body will undergo more metabolic pathways allowing more calories to be burned :)
