Are people drinking coffee? Why or why not?

Kellyeee2013 · January 2013

I am just curious if people are drinking coffee? I have heard mixed things in relation to weight loss. So, why or why not? I personally stopped because it made me feel dehydrated, gross, and I like a little cream and sugar in it. I also hate the headaches I have without it. BUT! I had a cup today and it was soooo wonderful. I am wondering if this is something I want to completely give up......

Thoughts?

I love my mug of coffee in the morning. I've been putting 2 tablespoons of coconut milk in it lately - only 20 calories.

Still drink coffee, but I don't add anything to it.. Need that coffee for a nice wake up at work.. Only have 2 cups though (1 large cup).. I am sure everyone has reasons to drink or not to drink it.. I don't see it having any problems with my weight loss.

I drink coffee daily -- hate the headaches I have if I don't.
I drink as much as I want up until 11 AM, and then I quit for the day.
I usually drink it black, but will sometimes put Torani sugar-free syrup in it.

I don't drink coffee but that is only because I have stomach problems and coffee is a trigger.

I enjoy hot coffee in the morning, I use truvia as a sweetner and skim milk, and add it to my breakfast calories. I'm not a morning person so the boost of alertness is useful, the heat gets the post nasal drip out of my chest, and it gets my digestive system going. I have no bad things to say about coffee.

I have only just started my diet today, but I only have decaf coffee with skimmed milk only. That's what kick-starts my day.

Yes, because it's delicious and it wakes me up. I use milk and splenda.

I usually only drink it on the weekends because I want some type of Vanilla Creamer in it like International delight or Coffemate Natural and those cost me BOOKOO calories because for every cup of coffee I lik 1/4 cut of creamer at least (I like a little coffee with my creamer :drinker: ) I drink tea more than I drink coffee.

Of course, I have at least a cup at day - maybe too. I went from using sugar and half/half to using Stevia and skim milk.

I can't give up everything that is bad for me. Coffee is my treat! It's warm and helps me avoid a warm cookie. I have substituted the cream, sugar, and whip cream on it for flavored coffee grounds and truvia. Just as satisfying.

During the week and occasionally on the weekends I will have a cup. On rare occasions I will have 2 cups. I put flavored creamer in it, regular not sugar free, but I do not put sugar in it at all. It is one of those things I like to have with creamer and I refuse to give it up.

I have coffee every day. I use creamer and Stevia, and still lose weight. I don't think it's realistic to give up everything you love!

Coffee's one of those small pleasures I look forward to every morning. I've always preferred it black and unsweetened so the calories are negligible, and I think it also helps with digestion. I've gone without it and there were no consequences, but it's something that I enjoy and I don't see any reason to give it up.
