Is Coffee Going To Ruin My Weight Loss?



Recommended Posts

Thanks Skyvic, that is so encouraging!! I'll sacrifice anything to keep the coffee, it's good to see that it won't necessarily wreck me. Can I ask how many cups a day/week you have? Do you limit yourself? I would have killed for a second cup this afternoon, but I didn't let myself have one.

I drink my Decaf with FF 1/2 + 1/2 and Equal. OR, I drink caffeinated Hazelnut.

My question for you guys....I want to drink flavored decaf, black...but can't find any.

Do you know of any websites that sell coffee?

i am a black coffee drinker. i now drink half reg and half Decaf.< /p>

do they not have ff Creamers and sugar free substitutes you could use?

i am guessing a wee bit of either wont make a hill of Beans if you drink one or two cups a day..sorry, wish i could offer more :mellow:

i drink coffee black without sugar. i have up to four cups a day... one of them is decaf. it hasnt made the slightest difference to my weight loss.

My friend (who also loves creamer) swears that Starbucks Sumatra blend is the best coffee ever and he can drink it black. I've been meaning to try it sometime, but they're expensive!

Oh, and Jellyfish, you have the most beautiful dog!

Thanks!! He was my Christmas present last year. Can you believe nobody wanted him and he had been in a shelter for all four years of his life? He's been the best dog ever. I love yours too, those perky ears are too cute!

I drink one 8-10oz cup of coffee a day before Breakfast in the morning. I use reg sugar and reg creamer, flavored ones too. I have to have my coffee the real way. I am still losing weight doin have to say coffee hasn't affected my weight loss but I didn't cut back. I use to drink 3-4 cups a day and now I try and have 1. Once in a while I'll have 2.

I don't see anything wrong with drinking your coffee with regular creamer and sugar, it's just 10 oz, so I don't think damage is being done. I commend you (actually, I'm jealous of you :P ) for drinking 1-2 per day! I need those big 16 oz. mugs or more. That's my reason for using sweetener and FF 1/2 + 1/2...if I didn't I'd gain all sorts of weight.

I wish I could use real sugar because it's pure, not manufactured sweetener. That always bothers me, my usage of sweetener, it must be bad for me. I started drinking it black, but still crave the sweetener and cream. I guess I have to take things small steps at a time. :rolleyes:

Good job Kristen! Keep on losing...

I drink two Keurig coffee cups per morning with quite a bit of creamer. I'm not changing unless they come up wit the most awesome sugar free and fat free creamer. I drink it every day. I will never touch carbonated drinks again and have not since one month before my surgery.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
