Caffeine has been known to act as an appetite suppressant,by surpressing your appetite you are likely to eat less and therefore you take in less calories, leading to weight loss. It is better to draw your caffeine source from herbal teas such as Green Tea. Clinical trials have shown that drinking 2-3 cups of Green Tea a day can lead to you burning 80 calories a day, that is a total weight loss of 8lbs in a year. It also monitors your blood sugar levels, which lessens the chance of you craving bad foods.
WHAT IS GOOD OR BAD ABOUT CAFFEINE WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO DIET
So, what is god or bad about caffeine when you are trying to diet? Well, it can hinder weight loss. Some people lose additional pounds after stopping coffee or caffeine.
Studies have shown that caffeine (as in coffee and some sodas) contributes to insulin resistance (thus making it harder to lose weight), increases appetite (again making it harder to lose weight) and contributes to food cravings (making it difficult to adhere to a weight loss diet). In those studies, even decaffeinated coffee is shown to be detrimental to weight loss.
Caffeine also interferes with GABA and prevents it from performing its calming duties in the human body. This then increases physiological and psychological stress (often associated with both overeating and difficulty adhering to a weight loss diet). Those who are trying to lose body fat (weight) would do well to avoid caffeine.
Many overweight people, particularly those who have frequently 'dieted' and lost weight only to regain it later, are insulin resistant. Unfortunately, many people are insulin resistant without being aware of it. If you have insulin resistance, using caffeine will further affect your metabolism. It will have the opposite outcome of what you want. In the long term, avoiding caffeine will help to boost your metabolism.
INCREASING YOUR METABOLISM EFFECTIVELY WHEN YOU ARE DIETING
You can increase your metabolism in a significant way by eliminating or limiting refined processed carbohydrates (apart from the occasional treat) and replacing them with specific fat burning proteins to take advantage of the thermic fat burning effect of these foods. If you are unsure what these foods are, you will find a list of refined processed carbohydrates and a list of fat burning proteins in page links at the bottom of this answer.
To increase your metabolism further, add cardio exercise to the above suggestions, plus, if you are able, weight training. Weigh training will increase lean muscle that can burn extra calories 24 hours daily and not just when you are exercising. Even if you are unable to exercise, increasing your metabolism by making the food changes mentioned above will enable you to lose weight and avoid future weight gain.
