    In a perfect world, it would be daily Starbucks carmel lattes. Lots of them. But my reality is Splenda and low fat milk. Sometimes with a splash of sugar free Carmel syrup. :smile:

    My first of the day is with two tablespoons of half and half and 2 sugar in the raws. The second of the day might be black if I don't want to devote 75 cals to it. Or I'm eating cookies with it.

    If it's not a costa drink made with soy then I go for some kind of creamer...sometimes 3-4 teaspoons of sugar as well o:)

    I don't belong to this thread cause seriously all I drink daily is 2 oz black coffee + 6 oz almond milk +2 splenda + dash of cinnamon and 2:00 in the micro. Perfect companion to my toast and scramble eggs <3

    I'm with you! Though I usually add 2T ff half & half bc my "one cup" of coffee is closer to two. But this is waaaay less than I was using of other flavored creamers before MFP (never measured...more like 5-6 T for each of my 2-3 cups a day. Now just one cup).

    I drink my coffee out of a 16 oz beer stein. I usually fill it about 2/3 with coffee and then put in 1/4 cup 1% milk. It's the right amount of milk to cool the coffee in the big cup. I only have 1 of these a day. If I drink more coffee I drink it black.

    I used to be all about the holiday themed creamers (Pumpkin Spice, Gingerbread Latte, etc.), then moved to unsweetened vanilla almond milk and cinnamon when I started here, and now I am just drinking black coffee with a sprinkle of cinnamon. I decided that I prefer to use my calories elsewhere. :smile:

    I prefer my coffee black, but I have a sensitive stomach, so if that's acting up, I'll add the tiniest splash of milk--just enough to cover the bottom of an empty mug--so as to mellow it out without cooling it down or taking away from the taste. c:

    1 C coffee, 1 C chocolate or almond Teeccino, 6 grams of butter, 6 grams of coconut oil, one scoop of protein powder. Great snack - keeps me full for a few hours.

    Right now I'm drinking Trader Joe's Wintry Blend, but usually I grind beans and add spices like cinnamon and allspice. I use a French Press and this will make two large cups. First cup gets 3 tablespoons low-fat half and half and some liquid sucralose. The second cup, which is usually a little bit smaller, gets 2 tablespoons of the half and half and the sucralose.

    Depends. If at home it's a big mug with 1/3 cup semi-skimmed milk and 1 teaspoon of sugar. Sometimes I'll use a flavoured syrup.

    If out I'll have a latte with soy (normal milk in that quantity with coffee is bad news for my tummy!) and cinnamon syrup is my favourite.

    If it's one of the better coffee places that roast in house and doesn't burn the coffee or scold the milk then I'll take an Americano with a splash of milk and perhaps a little sugar.

    before: about 1/4 cp whole milk with 4 or 5 tbsp of sugar depending on who made my mugs of coffee.
    Now: about 1/4 cp of 2% milk with 5 drops of ezsweet (liquid splenda).

    At home I have it like I like it, milk and maybe a splash of flavored creamer. At work now I drink it black because I am not just sitting and enjoying it I am running around like crazy leaving it everywhere and gulping it down cold. I decided to stop wasting calories on creamer at work.
