    I drink my coffee with 1 tbsp. of soy milk creamer which is 15 calories. It's lightly sweetened.

    I drink black coffee, no milk no sugar, but you can use sweeteners or soy milk almond milk rice milk etc (better for you than cows milk as far as I'm concerned)
    or you can try herbal teas eg oolong tea or green tea

    That is scientifically inaccurate. If you prefer those things for personal reasons or because you have a specific medical issue, fine. But don't generalize it.

    Cow's milk is fine. Real sugar is fine. Just use them in moderation if you want to consume fewer calories with your coffee.

    I also think our taste develops over time. Most people prefer coffee with lots of cream, sugar or sweet flavourings when they're younger, and end up preferring black coffee as they get older. I suspect most of us lose our sweet tooth gradually as we get older.
