I thought that I heard somewhere that coffee (mean black and no sugar) is calorie free. Is this not true? I typed coffee into my food log this morning and it was giving me a calorie count.

Thank you for the help :smile:

    I think it has a few calories in it though I could be wrong. Very very small number though? I know black tea is calorie free.

    it has a few calories just because it has a tiny bit of fat and sodium I believe. I usually don't count my coffee for calories because its less than 10. If i'm over or under by that 10 calories what difference would it make? lol

    LOL yeah I am sure that 10 calories is not a big deal :) Ok I will continue to not count it. I don't drink much of it anyway just 2 cups in the morning.

    Thank you again :flowerforyou:

    Ya know, I thought coffee didn't have any calories myself! I never entered it to check, though. I enter the fat-free creamer I use, but not the coffee itself.

    OT everytime I see that ship I want to go on a cruise! Which Carnival ship is it?

    On coffee, I love it. Had to give it up because of nightsweats/hot flashes. So sad. Once in awhile I treat myself to a cup or have a latte. I'm going to miss the iced coffees this summer.

    I never counted black coffee or anyoff the tea I drink.
