Coffee!

I was told to cut all caffeine out due to heart palpitations, so I don't drink coffee anymore, which is a good thing because I always had it with TONS of sugar and cream. Now I don't even drink Pepsi, or if I do it's one a month.

I have my morning cup of black coffee, and if out, I will have herbal tea. It's flavorful without the guilt.

You can most certainly have coffee....I once ran a half-marathon and all I had was a cup of coffee. Not recommended btw

At any rate, I have mine 3-cream, 3-sugar and always account for it in my diary. Of course, I also run 2-3 days a week and do circuit training the other days. I probably work out or run 5-6 days a week. This year I've run a full marathon, a half marathons and an 8k. Training for another half marathon now...I burn far more calories than my coffee ever gives me....

Occasionally, maybe once every 6 months, I'll have a caramel frappe from McDonalds (450 cals ouch)...but those are only on my 10+ mile run days and I know I have 1,000+ calories to burn...

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Caramel Northern Lite Latte at Caribou. Unfortunately at $3.74 & $4.49 a crack, I don't stop there daily for the drink. I was just telling my fiance that I need to figure out how to make my own version at home because they cost so much.

Today, I started drinking Folgers French Vanilla coffee. It's not the same, but it's curbing my cravings for now.

Agree Great Choice

I don't like Starbuck's coffee so I never meet anybody there. I prefer The Coffee Bean, and that is where my husband and I will occasional go for coffee if we are doing errands.

At home or at any other place, I only drink black coffee with Splenda or Trivia; no milk or creamers of any kind, in my opinion they just spoil the true taste and aroma of real coffee.

At home we drink 100 % Kona coffee (2 cups a day) which we get from Hawaii, specially the chocolate macadamia flavor. Love it!

No sugar, just a little bit of milk. Heavily flavored coffee tastes very strange to me now. Once in a blue moon I'll have a small Frappucino but it's almost too sweet for me since I stopped putting sugar in drinks. If you like flavor shots, ask them to put one pump of flavor in it (the default is about four).

To be honest, weaning myself off of "XXXTRA FLAVOR 2 DA MAXXX" coffee has been life-changing for me. I don't even think about the calories in a cup of coffee anymore, they're negligible

I like my coffee black. No calories. I suppose a skim cappuccino with artificial sweetener is fine too.

I had looked this up myself and copied from their website so I would have a list.

U.S. and Canadian soymilk vary slightly.

The Skinny Mocha Frappacino is 130 calories, as long as you get it with skim milk & no whip. I'm fairly certain is has aspartame. As I am trying to avoid aspartame and artificial sweeteners altogether, I bring my own stevia & add it to black coffee. I use regular half & half; 1 tbsp has 40 calories. Their new fall pumpkin spice coffee is yummy; with stevia and 1 tbsp of full fat half & half, you get a decadent tasting treat for less than 50 calories (I think the biggest size coffee is 8 calories).

Instead of Truvia (which uses several sugar alcohols in addition to stevia), I buy the packets in the supplement section of the grocery store. The added benefits: no weird chemicals & it's way cheaper. Liquid stevia is also awesome, but a bottle costs about $15. Since it's 300x sweeter than sugar, a drop is plenty; a bottle lasts me about 6 months and I use it in my coffee everyday.

I have never been to Starbucks.....or any other coffee place. Im an incredible coffee snob and ONLY drink coffee at home that my fiance' makes cuz he can outdo alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll those other places hands down.

Ive had Starbucks.
Ive had Dunkin DOnuts
Ive had Tim Horton or what the hell ever the name is

...................and hate em all.

but GOD forbid anyone get between me and the first hot cuppa coffee in da morning. Death would be too kind
