    Coffee

    I've been on atkins just shy of 5 months "lost 40 pounds!" i've not touched COFFEE till today. I read the book i know caffine could be a problem. Just wondering if anyone here drinks REAL coffee has it been a issue? I really missed coffee after so long for this to work as a "life time" way of eating not sure i want to cut my coffee out. What are some thoughts on this...how bad is it? did you stop coffee? did you ever bring it back? boy did i get a jolt! lol whole house is spotless laundry washed and put away.

    Re: Coffee

    I drink coffee.

    Everyone reacts differently to different things. If you can drink it and keep losing and it doesn't prompt cravings, then you can, if you can't, then you can't. I know that's not like, a definite answer but there isn't one.

      Re: Coffee

      yeah i guess that would be the answer! and that's pretty much what i was gonna do... try it..... if it caused a issue cut it out again till a later date. Yea everyone reacts diffrent so i guess it's a wait and see thing. Acually got a little shaky from it not sure that's a good thing. ty for the reply

        Re: Coffee

        I drink decaf a few times a week...but I don't know if that's what you mean by "real" coffee, lol!

        I hate caffeine-- severe hypoglycemic so I leave well enough alone.

            I have always imbided in the java nectar. I drink a cup (black) 3x a day through out the day. It never effected my weightloss the first time so I haven't seen a reason to stop as yet. But not everyone is that way... if ya stop losing, drop the bean juice. Good luck with it!

                  I confess I never stopped drinking real coffee, or even reduced my intake. Mostly black, I rarely use sweetener or cream.

                      I had no idea we couldn't use powder creamer!! Why is that?? I thought I read somewhere that it was ok, just as long as it wasn't milk - oh gosh, now I feel all this time I've been doing it wrong! I don't drink it all the time and I do prefer half and half but now I have a sense of guilt!! At least now I know better...I do try to stick to decaf as much as possible!!
