Can you drink coffee rather then eating a meal or lunch?

Caffeine : Caffeine should not be a meal replacement. A healthy meal with protein, whole grains, fruits and vegetables is recommended. Habitual use of caffeine will result in withdrawal symptoms such as headache and irritability if suddenly stopped.
