Yeah, you must be doing it wrong. :-)

The appetite-suppressant effect of nicotine is enhanced by caffeine (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15955118/)

Conclusion: Caffeine added to nicotine chewing gum appears to amplify its attenuating effects on appetite and the combinations of 1-mg of nicotine with caffeine seem to be well tolerated.

BTW, I've found black tea to be not as effective as black coffee as an appetite suppressant.

Thanks for the tips :).

I wonder what the mechanism of action is for most people. For me, black coffee hardly does anything stimulation-wise, but is an excellent laxative, and half the time makes me feel generally unwell. I suppose these effects do suppress appetite.
