Weight Loss Forum / General Topics / November 2003Coffe & diet question
If you get up in the morning, drink 2 cups of black coffee, then run until you sweat, drink 4 more cups of black coffee,then sit at the PC until 12 noon - what happens? That is, do you start burning fat at any time between 8am & 12 noon under these conditions?

No... Forget the coffee. You will gradually build up a tolerance to caffeine, and even if it does work at first, which I doubt, the effects will diminish. Also, you will be gittery and feel like royal crap for a while. The running part of your plan sounds good though. Start running or do some other form of exercise at least five days a week. Gradually increase the duration and/or intensity of your exercising. Replace the coffee with water. Also, learn to eat healthy: learn about some different ways of eating: there are a lot of different ways discussed in asd, and find one that you can live with. Then you will start burning fat.

You feel dehydrated from the combination of exercise and diuretic? Let me rephrase the question:-) Does coffee stop or retard the fat burning process in any way? That is, if you drink coffee & skip breakfast - will the fat burning process be "as efficient" as if you had eaten a proper breakfast & drank zero coffee?

I drink a cup of coffee (or have a caffeine pill) before I go to the gym because it helps me work out harder. Coffee may help you lose weight if you use it to help you exercise more. You may also get a short-term weight loss from losing fluid - coffee is a diuretic. Skipping breakfast is usually a very bad idea. > Let me rephrase the question:-) > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > Thanks, > > Gene Hi, i'm like alot of people I can't stop eating. In fact I love food, but I have an idea. If we could kill our taste buds and impair our sense of smell for a short time (a month or so) we would no longer have the desire to eat fatty foods because it would all taste the same. I could eat things I would normally turn my head at. I would not look forward to eating because it all tastes the same. It would cut down on the enjoyment of food and would cause you to only eat when your hungry and not overeat. Does anybody now of something safe I can take to kill my taste buds or impare my sense of smell? Please e-mail me. Thanks > Weight loss occurs when you burn up more calories than you consume.

You are right - if food tastes bland you wont eat as much. Unfortunately, you'd have to continue with the gum (or adding a bad tasting ingrediant) the rest of your life or the weight would come right back. You can try what I do - eat the same foods every day. Lack of variety = less eating. Also, adding fiber to your diet will cause a 10 to 20% decrease in appetite. Just remember: temporary solution = temporary weight loss. > Hi, i'm like alot of people I can't stop eating. In fact I love food, > but I have an idea.

Do you want to lose weight or be healthier? Its true that you can skip breakfast taking in fewer calories, but this won't lead to a healthier body. You body needs nutrients to survive and if you skip meals, then your body goes into survival mode and burns even less calories each day. You best choice is to eat a healthy breakfast (include coffee if you want) exercise and eat 5 - 6 smaller meals throughout the day.
