    One of my last vices.. drink it with a splash of fat free half and half. My family knows not to talk to me until I have it.

    I enjoy drinking tea and coffee I drink them more than anything, supposed if you aren't piling in the milk and sugar it can't hurt. To help with weight loss only thing I know is coffee is supposed to be a mild appetite suppressant

    Coffee ( preferably Jamaican) with a tsp of Stevia and at least a tablespoon of International Delight creamer ( at present, white chocolate mocha). One or two mugs per day.

    Black any other way is dessert not coffee! I don't know if it helps lose weight, but I know if I get my usual 6-8 cups a day it helps those around me stay sane! :drinker: :drinker: :bigsmile: :noway: :laugh: :wink:

    If you enjoy coffee you drink it black. If you add anything, you enjoy caffeine.

    I've always preferred my coffee black, no sugar, and don't sweeten tea either.

    Black!

    Plus an occasional latte, but I consider that recreational coffee.

    I drink it by the POT, When i first started on MFP i used to use the flavored creamers but I went down to just splenda to save calories, now I am adding a little powdered creamer here and there when i want a treat, but I could never give up Coffee EVER. It has neither helped or hurt my weightloss.

    that picture is amazing!!! haha kinda makes me want a cup now..

    I don't drink coffee but I have heard it speeds up your metabolism, don't quote me on that though.

    I'm a tea drinker for the most part, but I have no qualms about having my coffee with a cube of sugar or sweetener (depending on where I am for sugar intake that day) and almond/soy milk (depending on what they have). I try to avoid coffee though because it makes me nervous.

    I regularly have earl grey with vanilla hemp bliss milk and sweetener... YUM :D

    Damn skippy. With fat free half and half in the morning, usually 2 cups, sometimes 3. I have lost my taste for sweet lattes (either the real stuff or sugar free), and I drink green tea the rest of the day, except the occasional SBUX skim latte (which I do for the walk out of the office as much as anything else).

    Coffee is not advisable for weight loss. What it does is that it suppresses appetite for a bit. This is why so many people drink it as a means to put off/postpone meals.

    I drink between 6 to 9 cup of instant coffee, skimmed milk, no sugar. My doctor told me that it is too much but I can't stop

    I drink it black, sometimes with a splash of milk. Unless I'm at Starbucks, then it's a grande nonfat no whip caramel macchiato. Everyone needs a treat sometimes.

    All day, every day. Black, no sugar. (Mostly half-caff though.)

    I LOVE my morning cups of coffee (2) and have no desire to give it up. I use 1 tbsp of flavored creamer in my coffee (yep - I measure it out). I feel the calories are more than worth it to me. :smile:
  • Love it!! 1/4 cup skim milk and Stevia--- I loved my Coffeemate Coconut Creme coffee creamer but i drink 4 cups in the morning and it was too many calories!

    Yes, once a day only in the morning. 1 sugar cube and two creams.

    I soooo miss drinking coffee!
    I used to drink a pot a day, but due to an ongoing medical condition I had to give it up entirely.
    Now I hang out in the coffee aisle at the grocery store breathing in the rich smell of coffee!
    :blushing: :laugh: :happy: :smile: :wink:
