    People, if you're going to use artificial sweeteners, PLEASE use Stevia or Truvia at least. This is SO MUCH BETTER for you than any of the Splenda, Equal, Sweet and Low junk that is out there. Stevia is a natural sweetener that is low in cals.

    I use to drink 24 oz, tripple toasted marshmellow mochas. No I put International Delights Smore (just found it) , or cinnamon vanilla. 2 T abot 70 cals, but I figure it is WAY better than what I use to drink.

    if i'm in the mood for sweet coffee or a latte, i add some skim milk and some zero-calorie vanilla flavoring.

    Probably the least "healthy" option you'll see in this thread but...

    3 spoonfuls of turbinado sugar, one spoonful of vanilla extract, and a splash of light cream. Mmmm.

    I don't do artificial sweeteners or coconut oil (and both are found in non-dairy creamer!). I used to use heavy cream but decided I needed to decrease my early-morning fat intake. I have one or two cups of coffee in the morning but otherwise just drink lots of water all day.

    I get the flavored coffee and then add 1/3 cup of fat free milk... I used to sweeten it as well, but it's worth weaning yourself off of that. Splenda isn't good for you (don't shoot me, Splenda lovers out there; my DH is diabetic. I said it isn't good for you, as in it is empty and doesn't help your body) and the less processed sugar you consume the better.

    It took me a few weeks, but if you can commit to going "no sweetener", then you can use those cals for something more productive (like an orange).

    Right now, I am in the process of weaning myself off milk (YIKES!) in my coffee. Wish me luck :flowerforyou:

    flavored liquid stevia drops, and if I want my coffee to look "tan" I add some skim milk. But usually lately it is just black in color w/ the chocolate raspberry liquid stevia. Yummy!

    Black or with a teaspoon of coconut oil. It's good fat and makes it taste like toasted coconut. Or sometimes a sprinkle of nutmeg and cinnamon. I avoid artificial sweeteners and creamers.

    I used to drink coffee white with one sugar but I started drinking black as I was taking in too much dairy and it was hindering my weight loss. Turns out I love black coffee better! No sugar

    Vanilla Soymilk... It tastes way better than milk or half and half or anything else to me! 100 calories for a cup.. plus amazing protein and said to be great for women to have a little soy every day!

    I use sugar and flavored creamer, it's not that many calories for me but that might be the brand I use. You can check my diary.

    2 Tbs. of half and half 40 calories 3 tsp of Demerara sugar 45 85 calories. I only drink one cup a day, but I want it tasty. I cut out the French Vanilla Non Dairy as I was using too much and it has artificial flavoring not to mention beaver butt as we refer to it.
