Anyone drinking decaf coffee during intermittent fasting? 

Did IF for a week and I found that I loved drinking the black coffee too much! So I'm trying decaf because I don't wanna become a caffeine junkie. Drinking two cups of decaf :)

I don't really notice much of a difference in terms of appetite suppression, but I'm wondering if I'm missing out with the lower caffeine levels.

Caffeine is the substance in

Caffeine is the substance in coffee responsible for the appetite suppression effect, so anything from decaf would be placebo.  It takes about 3 weeks for your hormones to adjust to the IF schedule and during the adjustment period you will be very hungry at times but the hunger will subside once you're adjusted.

Try green tea.  Coffee is too

Try green tea.  Coffee is too strong for me and makes my game shitty(I just get way too hyper and jittery), but green tea is perfect.  Suppresses appetite like a boss as well.

Decaf coffee seems to have an appeitte suppressing effect, independent of caffeine...

That said, I'd do regular coffee. Just stick to coffee during the fasted period, and at no other time.

Try to moderate your intake. 2-4 cups per day and nothing more....

Also try and wait 1-2 hours after waking up before drinking coffee. That helps a lot!
