I never gave up my coffee....
I did, however, cut back on the amount I consume. I now have one cup of coffee, or less, in the morning. I got such terriffic headaches when I cut the caffeine out completely that I was afraid that I would start getting migraines again. On the weekends I allow myself to drink as much coffee as I please...my little treat for being so good during the week, I guess. Hey, it's better than what I used to do to reward myself....cake, candy, cookies, etc. I have no idea if it has slowed down my weight loss. I do know that the quality of my life is every bit as important as how much weight I loss in "x" amount of time and decided that once I got down to my goal weight, I would want to be able to have a cup of coffee if I wanted it so no sense in removing it from my life in the meantime. Maybe I would reach goal faster if I gave up my coffee but I wouldn't be happy doing it and to me, the journey should be as enjoyable as possible while striving to reach the destination.
