I currently use stevia, but sometimes I worry this causes health issues as with all other no-calorie sweeteners. It is natural, but is it safe? Opinions?

    I use a tablespoon of flavored creamer. Sometimes I get the sugar- or fat-free creamers, if there's a flavor I particularly like, but mostly I don't sweat it. It's 35 calories; it's not going to make or break me.

    Just cream. Good coffee is plenty sweet enough; I just need to take the edge off the acid.

    Black if I make it or buy it somewhere with decent coffee.

    In a latte with skim milk and sugarfree cinnamon dolce syrup from Starbucks if I have to buy it there. Grande skinny flavoured lattes are 120 calories so fairly easy to fit in my day.

    I like black coffee so that's my choice most of the time. However, I have no issue with reasonable consumption of artificial sweeteners or dairy, I hate the taste of Stevia, and I don't usually need the extra calories from real sugar, so if I want something sweet or milky, that's what I go for.

    I just use 2 milk.
    Used to be a 2 cream, 2 sugar (mmm double double) but started cutting out my sugar. It took a while to get used to but now i cant handle the sweetness of anything other then milk in my coffee.

    Went from more cream and sugar than coffee to black coffee when I was at a large deficit. Then for about 2 years have gone to 2% milk (about 2oz per 20oz coffee). I am currently experimenting with using 1oz of cream either 10% or 18% instead of 2oz of 2% per 20oz coffee :smiley:

    Black, don't have to count any calories for that, it's hard enough to loose weight, so I just stick to black coffee.

    @kshama2001 What do you do when the nuts and chia seeds float to the top of your coffee? :o

    @Noel_57 I presoak the chia seeds, and have the coconut in the bottom of the cup when the coffee is brewing, so the problem is them sinking, not floating :)

    I put all this in a protein shaker cup, and shake periodically. This time of year I am drinking it cold. When the weather cools down, I will have it warmer, but the coffee needs to cool a bit or the protein powder will curdle. This gives the coconut time to rehydrate.
