    I used coffee mate peppermint mocha creamer - 35 calories per tablespoon (I need 2) and 3 splenda packets. I know it's not ideal, but that's how I like my coffee. :) I typically only have coffee every other day or so.

    MILK

    The only time I use coffee 'creamer' is when I've run out of milk.... which is what goes in coffee... in the UK (and the rest of europe) we never use coffee creamer, it sounds so weird to me when people on here worry about eating it :)

    Unsweetened Vanilla or chocolate almond milk!!! The vanilla has 40 calories for 1 cup! At first its a little strange but it is starting to taste more like regular milk to me. To me its worth it for the calories.

    TRY PURE VANILLA, CINNAMON, AND SPLENDA! I THINK ILL TRY THE ATKINS SHAKE AS A CREAMER LIKE SOMEONE ELSE SAID ^^^^ SOUNDS LIKE THAT WOULD BE THE BEST BET ACTUALLY! BECAUSE COFFEE IS A MUST:bigsmile:

    I've started using non-fat dry milk. It contains zero artificial ingredients (I'm trying to avoid artificial ingredients as much as possible) and it doesn't dilute your coffee the way skim milk does. Two tablespoons seems to be the right amount for a cup of coffee (or tea).

    2 TB non-fat dry milk
    60 calories
    6 grams of protein
    0 grams fat
    13 grams carbs
    13 grams sugar
    20 % of your RDA of calcium

    WOW, I've read through all of the posts and no one suggested Agave Nectar! That's what I use with low fat coffee mate creamer. I only use 1 tsp of Agave per cup of coffee. It took a little while to adjust but I prefer it now!

    I just switched to non-fat International Delight French Vanilla and it tastes soo yummy! 25 calories per serving is not bad! I gave up sugar in my coffee years ago but could never drink it black..

    I have found So Delicious Coconut creamer. It is only 20 cals per tablespoon.

    I either use the unsweetened coconut milk made by Silk, or the unsweetened vanilla almond milk... they are both amazing!

    Baileys Irish Creamer - 40 calories.

    I did NOT need to know that existed.

    There's a sugar/fat free one that will save a few calories. I use a half serving of that and a splash of fat free milk

    I like to take a half gallon of skim milk, add in some vanilla extract and some splenda and mix it up and use that as my "creamer". It's also just super good to drink by itself.

    That is what I got my wife to use as well. The SOY stuff tastes chalky to her.

    Xylitol. It is the next best thing to sugar. I also use a splash of milk.
