    I gave up the Starbucks Frappuchino Mocha beverage of insta fat.

    I know right. People are blaming coffee for their weight gain--- it's cream and sugar dumb *kitten*! Drink your coffee black like us hard-*kitten* and you'll be fine. LOL

    As a former Barista at a national coffee chain. I endorse this thought. My overweight customers were the ones getting the extra cream, sugary syrups and junk in their coffee.

    And I don't know about you, but i've never met anyone who didn't like something hot, black and strong inside of them every morning.

    I drank 8 (8 oz) cups of water today and gained 4 pounds. Water is bad for you. Stop drinking it.

    Thank you for posting this!

    Did you know that 'macchiatto' is derived from 'macchia', Italian for 'stained' i.e. coffee, *stained* with milk

    Dear coffee, I love you. Let me count the ways. I love you from the french press, I love you from the melita, I love you from cold press, and I especially love you from Blue Bottle! I love you with almond milk, I love you black. I adore you with orange peels, and your cousin espresso it great in my book too. But starbucks and peets and tully's and the rest-- you've forgotten what the true meaning of coffee it, so why not call yourself cornsugar-milk cafes instead.

    ok break room... imma coming for more coffee ♥

    I could give up alcohol but I would NEVER give up my coffee!! I take it with skim milk only added once and by the third cup it's pretty much just black coffee.

    When I want a treat I'll do a non-fat latte NO SUGAR.

    Seriously - just drink it black people... if its half-way decent (read: not pre-packaged crap), it will taste delicious.

    PS: I know it's not a popular option for real coffee drinkers, but I drink my ICED coffee black too...

    i've heard great things. i usually go even more minimalist and use the single cup pour-over method

    At least until my replacement espresso machine arrives, which could be months.

    Really. Please, stop it. It hurts my feelings. Why do you people have to keep implicating coffee in your cream and sugar problems? If you want to quit drinking extra sweet frothy milk, please go ahead. But sweety frothy milk is to coffee what giraffes are to bananas.

    purist here too!

    This is the best thing about this coffee thread. Well played!
