Only if you put mountains of other ingredients which went past your calorie limit.0

I don't have a problem with coffee - of course I drink mine black so no cream or sugar to bring me down! In fact, there are health benefits to drinking coffee as well.0

Coffee is the most important meal of the day!0

coffee is awesome.
Freshly ground, steaming hot......... mmmm such flavour.0 -
The only reason that I gave up coffee for my diet/new lifestyle is because I don't really like it except with mountains of sugar, syrups, cream and milk in it, and the amount of calories from those added ingredients made the drink not worth it any more.
If you're they type of person that can drink coffee without adding tons of extra calories, or that it is worth it for you and can fit in your food journal, why not drink it?0 -
I sure hope not. I'd hate to suddenly find out that the 34 pounds I've lost over the past 5 months while drinking at least 4-6 cups of coffee a day are all a figment of my imagination.0

^What she said!
Seriously, I have to drink my coffee in the morning. I usually drink it with flavored creamer and I am still losing weight. So I say enjoy it and if you like sugar and creamers while moderate it.0 -
When I saw a nutritionist recently and showed her my food diary to help me figure out why my weight has been fluctuating up and down the same kg for months one of the only recommendations she had was to cut out coffee and hot chocolate. She said it had something to do with the cortisol in caffeine. I never added sugar to my coffee and only had it with lite milk, about 3 cups a day and sometimes 1 or 2 hot chocolates.
Anyway, i'm having a hard time figuring out how this could completely stop my weight loss but for the last week i've only been having 1 cup of coffee a day. In that week my weight went down almost 1kg. I'll have to wait till next week to see if it goes back up before i'm completely convinced!0 -
wow! please update me on that. thats interesting. so we might all be wrong.0
-
I'll definitely post again here after my next weigh in fingers crossed I have found the magic trick0
-
my fingers are definitely crossed because that would help me too! although it would be a BIG BUMMER because i LOVE coffee and redbull0
-
I gave up a lot but will not give up my coffee and I still have lost 48 pounds. Its what you put in the coffee that can be bad for your diet not the coffee. And in fact it has plenty of benifits. Just ask my wife she is able to live with me as long as I drink my coffee..LOL:drinker:0

I'm a barista which means I drink 4-8oz of espresso every day, and it hasn't slowed me down one bit! Balance it out with water and you're good0
-
I drink coffee every day and have had no problem losing weight. I never add sugar, just half a serving of So Delicious Coconut Milk Creamer.0
