I absolutely love coffee, I drink it with skim milk and sweetener. It does suppress my appetite and I do reheat it just once though. Lately I've been drinking hot chocolate instead of coffee and it does the same trick, a whole 250 ml of fat free milk with cocoa powder and a packet of sweetener for about 75 cal. I read caffeine is good for the body but in moderation, try not to take more than a cup a day.

Well caffeine is a diuretic so I think dehydration would be more of a concern than water retention. I personally love coffee :coffee: and drink it with splenda and milk. I am trying to cut back and drink more water, just because I know I should be drinking more water than coffee and not the other way around...:o Anywho, I've lost fine drinking coffee and I also find it helps in appetite suppression as well as moving the digestive tract along...:p

Well, I am drinking my D&D coffee with skim right now. I think I might consider getting a Keurig with the refillable cup, and buy my own grounds. I haven't really looked into it. However, it might be more of a present kind of thing (Mother's Day?). Anyway, for the moment, I'm ok getting my once a day coffee fix from the drive through. It's good to know that others have incorporated coffee into their weight loss plan to no ill effects.

I drink one or two cups of caffeinated coffee in the AM, the rest of the day I drink decaf. I use Kcups and do throw them in the garbage but when I was making coffee in my Mr Coffee I threw out many more grounds than I do Kcups. there are just some things we can't get away from , garbage being one of them.

I used to be a crazy coffee drinker. You know, multiple huge mugs a day. Now I do one cup in the morning with 1 tbsp natural bliss (during the week... sometimes the weekend is another story.. heh). Sometimes I'll have a second cup in the afternoon if I'm feeling snacky, so I think it does act as an appetite suppressant for me as well. Or at least it feels like I'm having a snack and distracts me enough from food because I like it so much.

Sure, you can overdo it, but I don't think coffee is bad.

WHATT?!?!? I'm sorry but Sweet n' Low (saccharin) is probably the worst one!!!! My OB/GYN even told me to be careful to avoid it when I was pregnant and she was pretty lax on the eating restrictions.


Oh and I personally like Tassimo brewed coffees over the keurig. We have the Keurig at work and I have the Tassimo at home and I think it works/tastes better...

:carrot: I love my coffee! I LOOOVVEEE McCafe also!

Fiancé and I actually picked up a Keurig the other night. B60 model. We both like coffee, but really only when it's turned into a sweet concoction with little coffee flav, lol. And since it's just us two we don't need a pot.
I pretty much love the keurig ! the kcup samples all have tasted really good, but we also got an ezcup so we could use our own coffee. it's a little weak but we prefer it this was, so it's fine.

I like hot coffee sometimes but I largely prefer iced (frozen) ! ESP in the warmer weather thats the only way I want it. i actually perfected (to my taste) my frozen coffee and put th recipe in the food forum :)

Hot, I like it with 1 TBSP of nesquik chocolate syrup (50 cals), and 2 teaspoons of sugar free vanilla torani syrup (i wanna get more of these!), I use Starbucks French vanilla roast. I also like to freeze this and pulverize it in my ninja.

fiancé likes his with (warning; he doesn't gain an ounce of fat no matter what he eats) 2 tbsp of dark chocolate syrup and caramel ice cream topping and whipped cream.

I have the Mr Coffee Keurig, it's about $80 unless you find a sale. It only makes one cup in one size but it's perfect for one person. It wouldn't be convenient for couples/families who go through a whole pot. I do have a regular pot in the closet for when I have guests.

I usually pay 10.99 for a box of 18 pods. I also have a refillable one but it's messy to fill (I need a smaller coffee scoop or something).

The coffee is fine, but then again I'm not picky about coffee. I happily drink the office brew while there are many people who refuse and go to the local coffee cart or to Starbucks.

Absolutely LOVE coffee. I drink too much of it actually. Easily 5-6 cups a day. I use silk creamer.

I do not use it as a way to curb my hunger, as it does not do that for me.

I always crashed hard drinking coffee so I switched coffee with green tea and honey in the morning instead. But I always have to drink coffee before my workout in the afternoon. I used to have it two milks one sugar. Now I just have those creamers that taste like vanilla, hazelnut whatever type there is and that I feel like having. Now if I go to Tim hortons or a coffee place, I just get two milks and 1 sugar.

I have a Keurig too. It is the small one for only like $80. My cousin got it for me for Christmas. I'm thinking about getting a bigger one because i like to use my travel cup sometimes and it only fits a regular size mug underneath. I only drink a cup(sometimes 2) a day and i use creamer and artificial sweetener. I don't see it affecting my weight loss. :)

I don't know what it is about coffee (maybe the caffeine) but after I drink it black I start coughing.

i live in a small apartment with an even smaller kitchenette. the boyfriend picked up one of those french presses. it makes approximately 2 full cups of coffee. perfect, because we only have 1 cup each in the morning.

i don't use sugar/splenda/milk. i just put a few tablespoons of coffeemate/international delight. i'm sure the ingredients could be better..i don't even know whats in that stuff. but it's about 50-75 calories for a delicious cup of morning coffee.
