Coffee - It's a friend

Hey people. I haven;t written anything for quite some time. I was 100% uninspired, a bit bored and maybe a little bit busy. :)

So, as a comeback, here's a everyday topic - COFFEE.

You probably drink it several times a day. Alone, with friends, during work and other activities, to wake up and many other reasons. OK. So So far I haven't said anything you didn't know. What I want to emphasize in the following few lines is the aspect of coffee as a fitness friendly drink.

There are two main reasons for this. One, coffee increases the speed of your metabolism which in simple terms means that you will burn more calories. Two, it eliminates the hunger in the "wrong" periods of the day. For and example, you sit in front of your PC at 1:00 AM. The last thing your body needs is food at this late hour, but you are hungry. The solution - a cup of coffee. This goes during the day as well.

But, this doesn't mean that you can replace your meals with coffee. It doesn't mean that you can drink as much as you like as well. Make sure that you know what you're doing and that you CAN (maybe even consult with a doctor) drink coffee first before making it a vital part of your daily food and drink intake.

Mine is ready :) See you soon.

maybe you will be surprised by the amount of toilet paper spent as a result of ur desperate need of 4-5 coffee cups a day, but, don`t worry.. the toilet paper is cheaper that any kind of food, anyway :)

I agree with Majajam :)
In fact I am aware of the effect coffee has to the metabolism (I've experienced it, and in extremely wrong times!), but I had no idea that I can replace my "late night snack" with a cup of coffee.... Yum!
