Coffee/caffeine?

Although coffee is allowed on induction, I was wondering if anyone has experienced a stall due to the caffeine?
I'm not much of a coffee drinker, maybe 2 cups a day and I flavor it with a few drops of stevia and coconut cream, so I know it's not the flavoring. I'm just curious if caffeine may be a factor. Thanks

    I have a couple of cups a day, no flavouring though. Also no milk or sugar.
    Not sure if I have stalled as such but weight loss is a lot less than the first two weeks despite being on induction.
    I should probably stop having the atkins bars to...

    I drink it black most days, however, some days I add heavy whipping cream and sugar free coffee syrup. I feel like when I add the stuff it stalls me, but I don't think black coffee hinders any weight loss. I have backed off on the bars for a bit. I feel those stall me for sure!

    Thanks all for your replies! I do agree with the bars, although having them occasionally shouldn't be an issue (better than eating a snickers bar). I don't think coconut cream is the culprit, and stevia shouldn't be either. Guess I'm okay then. I'll have to start looking elsewhere.
