Greetings.

I was just wondering what you guys think about coffee and tea? I know that you can drink unlimited amount of green tea.. but what about lipton or Nescafe instant coffee? I am a huge tea/coffee lover and end up drinking about 5 mugs total a day together. Also, I use Splenda or Sweet&Low to avoid the sugar, and I also never add milk as well. However, I do add Coffee-Mate creamer which is about 10 calories and no sugar per 1 tsp. I only get an average of 5 hours of sleep a day, so in the morning I sometimes drink two mugs. Also, anything past 5 pm I drink decaf coffee. So is drinking all this harmful? I've heard that all this caffeine actually increases your metabolism. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

As long as you are getting plenty of water throughout the day, you should be fine. Even though it isn't much,creamers contain partially hydrogenated oils, so I prefer to use skim milk instead.
