    Do you guys have any suggestions on beverages with caffeine you can get on the go, when you don't have the option of the good old coffee pot at home, without chugging down half your calories for the day?

    Diet soda.


    inb4 aspartame will kill you.

    Srs I quit aspartame a few months ago and my skin complexion cleared up, my sinuses widened, my gout suddenly vanished, my libido is through the roof, I no longer need to sit when I pee (long explanation) and women disrobe around me way more often.

    ...right and you're IQ is higher too... :tongue:

    Not a drink but caffeine pills or low cal energy drinks


    Yep.. There are zero calorie energy drinks which I pretty much get everyday. Zero sugar, zero calories, zero carbs.

    Looking at your profile pic I can see why. Whoops, is that my shirt on the floor?

    Coffee or tea itself does not have any calories until you add sugar and milk/cream. If you go for a 10 oz coffee with milk only that's about 20 calories. Black coffee is zero calories.

    fresh drip coffee has more caffeine than something like a latte or cappuccino. i stopped using sugar and sweeteners. i measure a tablespoon of cream for a 12 oz cup of coffee. very low calorie.

    Good old black coffee, or an iced americano (sweetened with splenda, or whatever you prefer)...
    Black, green or white tea - both awesome hot & iced.

    OR if you want the 'rills (which I can't blame you, sometimes you just do!!) you can get a 'skinny' latte which I think is around 100 calories.

    I drink Diet Soda. 1-2 per day only. All things okay in moderation. Soda/artificial sweeteners are not "the devil" as long as you don't go OVERBOARD.


    Moderation.

    I guess smoking 1 or 2 will be alright as well. You know, everything in moderation!

    Skip the caffeine, it dehydrates you and have to drink even more water to make up for it.

    Diet soda can really hamper your diet as well. I never thought I would get off of it and didn't want to but medically I had to and couldn't be happier!!!

    Try Lifewater 0 and VitaminWater Zero, much better for you and they qualify as water!!!

    Best of luck!!

    I don't smoke, but that is correct, one or two prob won't kill you. That doesn't mean it won't harm you.
