Hi John,

From my experience, coffee or tea didn't appear to pose any impediment whatsoever to weight loss.

I’m not exactly sure from where we’ve gotten this notion that a little caffeine will halt our metabolism. If anything, from some of the articles I’ve read, a little caffeine before cardio exertion not only prolongs endurance but also necessitates our body to more efficiently burn fat.

In my view, two cups of coffee per day ought not be enough to deter your efforts.

Best of luck!
