    sugar that is very low in carbs.

    Mallybear2020, Sugar IS 100% REFINED carbohyrates

    That's because since there's no fat, protein, air, nor water in sugar. the only thing left IS carbs.

    In a nutshell......
    Calories are from :
    1-Fat
    2-Protein
    3-Carbohyrates. (Subcategories are refined, simple, complex, soluble fiber, insoluble fiber)

    Things that DON"T have calories:
    1- Air
    2- Water

    I love my coffee but one is enough for me. So, I just have it the way I like it. I compared switching to Coffee Mate or International Delight for creamer but there's actually MORE calories in that than in my half and half! The only thing I may change is stevia for a sweetener but really, I just log the cals and enjoy this simple pleasure. I tried the whole - take it black until you enjoy it thing - but in 34 yrs of drinking coffee I have never liked it black and I probably never will. The nice thing about MFP is that you need to make choices about your diet based on your calories. This means I really enjoy what I consume because I made a conscious decision to eat or drink it.

    1/4 cup fairlife whole milk (38 cals), splenda, and a few drops of either vanilla extract, imitation maple syrup flavor, or imitation caramel flavor (lots of flavor choices next to the spices in the baking aisle, and a little cheaper than buying torani sugar free syrups).

    i hate to say it, but I don't count my creamer in my coffee. it's the one thing I leave out of the calorie counting...doesn't seem to make a difference though - I still lose

    I taught myself to drink black coffee (not for calories, just because I never remember to buy milk...) and I do enjoy it now. I save the flavoured lattes at the coffee shop as an occasional treat. Saves me calories and money...
