I never cut it out completely, but would limit myself when I started my diet back in January to just one, always with a little skin and two splendas or stevia0

I haven't cut it out, but if I did, I think there would be an increase in violent assaults in my city. I'm better off drinking it. :drinker:0

I drink an obscene amount of coffee (3-10 cups a day). I got the bright idea to "detox my adrenals" and quit all caffeine and sugar for 4 months. Once the crippling headache subsided my life was absolutely no different.
So I am back to drinking coffee - black, because I love coffee.0 -
Cut coffee???!!! Are you crazy or something???
I would cut off my arm first.0 -
Coffee is my doctor evil. I gave up diet sodas, but really my (sugary) coffee is the majority of my calories most days0
-
I don't cut out coffee but I drink it black with no sugar so I don't use up any calories.0
-
I drink coffee, diet drinks, eat whatever I want and stay at or below my calories. So far so good. I'll start focusing on the healthy part in ten more pounds or so.

I will still be drinking coffee on my death bed. But if it's bad coffee or if it contains cream or sugar or syrups I will have a renewed lease on life as I curse out whoever brought that crap to me. :bigsmile:0

No way, I drink 6-12 cups of black coffee throughout the day. I've never had any adverse side effects to speak of.0

Never!! The only time I don't have coffee in the morning is when I'm sick. Otherwise, it's coffee with half and half for me.0

It doesn't sound like you use a lot of calories for your coffee. If you don't want to give up, then don't.
For me, I've already made the ultimate sacrifce with red wine (well, cutting back significantly). I can't handle another lose : )0 -
I changed up how I drink my coffee... because I REALLY like my coffee LIGHT AND VERY SWEET. That doesn't work if I want to eat food the rest of the day... so I have cut back on the amount of coffee I drink - now just 2 cups and I use 1 packet of Stevia in the raw (natural sweetener) and 1 TBSP. of Hazelnut creamer or just under a 1/4 cup of Unsweetened Almond Milk (either Silk or Blue Diamond).
I can't pretend that I like it nearly the same, but I do prefer having coffee in the morning versus tea. I can drink hot tea black and I could switch, but I prefer not to take that route.
The bottom line is that you have to do what is right for you. I have tried to drink my coffee black... and so many people tell me that if I can stick to it for at least 3 weeks I'll never want it any other way - AND ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE ARE WRONG. I always want it light and sweet!0 -
If you are going to stop caffeine, wean yourself off gradually so you will avoid the withdrawal headaches.
I can't stop coffee. I'm from the Pacific NW. They would throw me out, and I like it here.0 -
NO! NEED COFFEE it's good for you
It's the extra, extra, extra, syrups and creams that are not.0 -
I could never, ever cut coffee out of my diet.... I think I'm going to cry just thinking about it! I don't drink tons, but the coffee I do have is just such a pleasure... I just drink it with milk.
Nope. Couldn't cut it out. NEVER. EVER.
(I, too, cut out coffee once, and it made no difference, so I started to drink it again)0 -
i too drink black coffee and lots of it! but i make mine a little weaker so its not quite so much.0
-
6 cups (i.e. 6 * 250 ml) of black coffee a day,
trying to mix in some green coffee in the afternoon as I dont sleep as well nowadays if I get coffee late in the day.
It used to have no effect on my sleep, but since I lost weight, it somehow has more of an effect0 -
ooooh there would be trouble if I didn't get my coffee each day!!
I only drink it either black, or with a little trim milk. I don't do syrups or sugar or whipped cream on top - blurgh!! If the coffee is good enough then you don't need all that other stuff in there0 -
I actually drink more coffee since starting this new way of life. I went from 1 cup a day to 3 cups a day. I have mine with splenda and I switched from cream to Carnation evaporated milk. Each cup is about 50 calories and I will NEVER give it up:)0
