    I use Silk Soy Creamer. 15 calories for one tablespoon. It's 'thicker' in coffee than regular soy milk, which makes it more like half-and-half.

    But I'm with the poster who said have your cream, just make a change elsewhere in your day (like forego that mayo on your sandwich, etc). If you love your coffee and it's satisfying, work around it . . . Unless you're drinking calorie-laden espresso drinks.

    A cup of strong coffee, 1/2 cup skim or unsweetened almond milk, and nestle quick no sugar added powder makes a really nice mocha and is probably my favorite and keeps the drink pretty low in calories.

    other possible options:

    Vanilla flavored splenda packets

    Torani sugar free syrups

    Fat Free half and half

    Unsweetened almond milk works OK.



    Also, swiss miss instant diet hot chocolate makes a mocha, although it tatses a little bitter if the coffee is too strong.
