coffee
Hi There
Can someone explain to me why or "if" caffeine interferes with weight loss?
I have switched over to decaff for some time now (several months) and have even managed to decrease amounts significantly ( I was quite a coffee drinker at work).
I don't want to go back to that level I was at...drinking caffeinated coffee "whenever', but I wondered if it is ok now to return in moderation- I thought somewhere I read that. I do love coffee with cream for a treat.
Also, any guidance if I start to increase...how much is ok without interfering with the program? And, if it is better just to keep with decaffienated- does it matter to the Atkins program..how much is consumed daily? (and does that mean after Induction and I can add in more cream to diet)
I'm almost through the two weeks of Induction- can't wait to add just a few more vegetables...I made it (two days to go...it's been kind of difficult for me...but ok). And, I'd like to add some coffee back...if possible for a treat.
Any experiences with coffee?
