Default Coffee can make you fat

I glanced at an article in Woman's World magazine that states that coffee can make you fat. Of course on the cover was a lovely, thin woman claiming to have lost 23 lbs just by cutting out coffee. Wouldn't it be nice if it were that easy!! The article mentioned several reasons, but the first two were:

-Coffee makes you crave high fat foods (don't remember how)

-Coffee releases insulin, the fat storage hormone (no surprise)

It went on to report how several "Stars" had made the switch to tea for better health (I guess because if they made the switch, it must be good! )

I picked up the magazine because for the past few months, after reading about caffeine in several of the LC books, I've been wondering if caffeine (not just coffee) is playing a bigger role in my fat storage than I thought.

Did anyone else read the article that could expand on this? Does anyone have any thoughts on Tea vs. Coffee? I'm going to make the switch to see if it makes a difference.

Carolyn
