What do you order at Starbucks/weight loss

Courtwag25

I want to get something from Starbucks today, but don't want to drink too many calories. Healthier options that taste good?? Thanks!

I don't know how much is "too many" calories for you, but I generally order a Trenta Iced Coffee with whole milk and sugar free syrup (depends on my mood which one I get).

Venti Pike Place Non Fat Milk one sweet n low.

abatonfan

Black hot/iced coffee
Double espresso with some splenda and a little bit of cocoa powder
Unsweetened iced/hot tea. I really like the iced passion tea with a little bit of splenda (now you got me craving one. I might need to walk to Starbucks before class).

I gave up with their "skinny" drinks. Half the time, they give me the regular syrup instead of the sugar free (I know because I check the drink with my blood sugar meter to make sure I'm getting what I asked for -if I get a reading that says HI, it's definitely not a skinny drink).

Cinnamon Dolce coffee - not the latte.

I order a iced quad eespresso with one shot of sugar-free hazelnut syrup! Yum!

I'll go for black with a Splenda myself. But I personally dislike the Pike - tastes burnt to me.

famysh88

Venti pike with steamed half and half and two raw sugar. 115 cals.

Hot: Americano with a splash of half and half and some cinnamon sprinkled on top.
Cold: Several shots of espresso over ice with a splash of cream and cinnamon sprinkled on top.

If I want some sweetness, sugar free cinnamon dolce syrup in the above drinks.

Grandie dark roast black

jellebeandesigns

Passion tea & leamonade

Brithicks

Grande cold brew with one pump of whatever syrup I feel like that day and a bit of half and half. Or a nonfat flat white. Or venti half green tea half passion tea with a pump of classic. Or a latte with one pump of whatever syrup I feel like that day. Or if I just want a real treat I make room in my calories for a latte with two pumps vanilla and one pump caramel... but I go a lot so I can't always fit that and I don't always want a sugar bomb.

Grande sugar free non fat caramel iced latte

Not coffee but a Venti Unsweetened Passion Tea Lemonade is quite refreshing and only 70 calories

kassygil2

Black ice coffe and I add non fat milk plus my stevia sugar

Venti Skinny Iced Caramel Macchiato

AigreDoux

I get a Venti nonfat latte. 170 calories, 16g protein. Not sweet, but I haven't got much of a sweet tooth anyway.

sunflowerhippi

venti nonfat caramel mocha frappachino and the mix in my mocha coffee protein powder. Ta-da splurge breakfast. 310 for the Starbucks and 125 for my protein.

johnnylakis

When I really have to have a cool refreshing Starbucks I get the Frappucino

jennebelle

Coffee lite frapp

Francl27

Black coffee or skim latte if I have the calories to spare.

Starbucks hurts my soul. Every now and then, I decide I'm going to treat myself to the smallest frap and then I die when I see it has between 350-600 calories. Such pain. And it's never worth it.

I have a few standards. Americano, black. Iced coffee also black (However, I find that I usually need to specify not to put any syrup in it because for some reason making it cold means that it needs to be sweet for some reason. Gross.). Every now and then if I'm tempted by the thought of a frap or a mocha, I'll add a shot of caramel or chocolate (20 cals). I enjoy the mango black tea lemonade. If I get food, I usually grab yogurt and/or a Kind bar. However UK Starbucks doesn't have Kind bars which makes me super sad because they're fantastic and have a much better macro balance than most other things on the menu.

When I am in the mood for a "splurge" at Starbucks, I order a Mocha Light Frappuccino (Grande, 16 ounces): 140 calories, 1 g fat, 0 g saturated fat, 29 g sugar, 190 mg sodium. Otherwise, it is venti Passion Fruit tea, unsweetened or a latte with skim milk and 3 equals.

SweetestLibby

Americano or a non fat cappuccino

Almond milk latte (it has coffee in it and the foam of the almond milk, but no sweetner...except if the almond milk has the sweetner in it?) it's been awhile since I've had one but so very yummy!!

The plant milks used at Starbucks are typically sweetened. But you can always ask if you want to know specifics.

A Grande Skinny Iced Mocha, like 100 calories.

Dark roast coffee. 5 calories.

I stay away from Starbucks. I just don't like drinking my calories. I rather have something more filling. If I do drink them, I rather have a smootie I make at home.

Basically. Starbucks is just a glorified milkshake shop for the most part. Last time I got something from there was in June when they were doing the S'Mores fraps. I got a small one with no whip and skim milk and split it with my kid. It was OK. I haven't been back since. If I am thirsty while out, I usually have already taken something with me like Coke Zero or bottled water or have my own coffee in a travel mug. Saves calories and $$.

Iced coffee with sugar free syrup and a little bit of half n half or the passion ice tea unsweetened
