    moderate amounts probably won't hurt you. A cup or two in the morning, but in excess it's not good for weight loss...or so says Dr. Phil.

    First rule of thumb is never take diet advice from Dr. Phil. He looks like a bloated ostrich. Coffee is a great anti-oxidant, revs up your metabolism and caffeine is one of the most studied and BEST ergogenic aids. Recently they did studies on cyclists who drank coffee before their races matched up against ones that didn't and the coffee drinkers greatly outperformed the other group.

    I ran my first 5k this summer and I was the only one who showed up at the starting line with a cup of coffee. Everyone was jogging around and sipping water and here I was standing there drinking hot coffee when it was already 80 degrees out. I finished 4th though. :conf :lol:

    Congratulations on your top 5 placing. It probably wasn't the coffee that gave you the edge though lol. But it might have helped!

    I drank coffee like a mad man and let me tell you this it dehydrates the living **** out of you, However it does not hurt you when trying to make weight or loss weight I have always been able to make weight, stay away from Mochas just drink BLACK coffee, sugar and creamers will fatten your ass up.

    People will say anything to justify a loss.

    True, but you have to admit the excuse Vinny Paz gave for the Jones loss was an all-time classic!:bbb

    ok, coffee's kinda odd when it comes to weight. drinking it on its own will help you lose weight, however with a meal, it turns carbs n some protien into lipids (fats).
