Coffee for coffee's sake? Or for the creamer?

I went to grab a cup of coffee today. In fact, I brewed it fresh, but when I went to get the creamer, there wasn't any, and I had no desire to drink coffee without it..... so that just tells me that I can live w/o coffee just fine.... How about you?

    Javajavajavajavajavajavajava....I need my coffee. I used to drink it black, and only started putting milk in it when my kids were babies so that there wouldn't be any cups of scalding hot liquid around. I can take it with milk, or black, hot or iced, just can't stand it with sugar.

    Black, strong, and no sugar. In vast amounts throughout the day.

    I love great coffee. I love it black. But most coffee isn't great so the worse it is, the more it needs something else in it. Though sometimes a coffee with ID will be a much needed treat in a stressful day.

    I love coffee. With cream or without. Generally I will have one or two with cream and then if I want more I will drink it black.

    I could live without coffee....but I have no reason to so it ain't happenin!

    I'm really hooked on bulletproof coffee! No creamer, and certainly no sweeteners.

    Coffee is a must for me! I use a little bit of half and half.

    I don't put cream in my coffee, except occasionally at work when someone makes it too strong and I don't feel like brewing a whole pot.

    Hi, my name is Lara and I am coffee-holic! :blushing:

    I gotta have my bean juice! I tried drinking it without creamer but it messes with my stomach too much. I use Equal and Powdered Creamer. Can't stand sugar - never liked it in my coffee. I used to suck down 2 pots a day. Now I have about 5-6 cups a day and if I am having a stressful day I will have 8 cups. I hate drinking my calories though! I am hoping to wean off a little more in the near future

    I can drink my coffee black if it's good quality coffee. It took me a long time to be able to drink black coffee. While I can do it, I prefer to put just a splash of flavored creamer in it. Anything more than a splash is way too sweet.

    Need coffee! I figure it helps to keep me employed :)

    I've learned to drink it with fat-free milk instead of cream.

    I don't "need" it, but I do like it. It's funny, I sit and drink it all day, every day, but if I go out of town for a few days, I can go without and never miss it.

    I drink two cups a day- one in the morning, and one during the afternoon "slump" time (around 2:00 to 3:00). I used to drink at least 4 cups a day but have cut back. I use powdered creamer and (gasp) REAL SUGAR. My coffee is 32 calories a cup.

    I need coffee but I also need the creamer to go in it.. The fancier the better :)

    I use heavy whipping cream only, so I drink it to wake up and to boost my fat macro percentage.

    I've managed to cut mine down to 1-16oz cup in the morning. 1 Splenda 1 Mini-Moo creamer for a whole 20 calories in total!

    I used to drink a 16 oz cup every day with four tsp. of sugar and light cream. However, back in December, I quit altogether. I started drinking tea instead in which I use only 2 level tsp. of sugar and skim milk. My favorite is Bigelow Raspberry Royale. I knew if I was to start a weight loss program, I would have to quit using so much sugar anyway and I simply cannot drink coffee without all that sugar. So...it's gone and I don't even miss it! That extra sugar and cream adds up over a year's time!

    Good quality black coffee is one of the most enjoyable experiences there is.
