coffee

I use splenda and the International Delight sugar free Vanilla creamer. It's really good, has no trans fat & you don't need a lot

I use Torani Syrups in my coffee and make some great combos. You don't need much and can buy them at some WalMarts but the coffee shop here in town sells me mine. I used to get them at World Market but they closed. Here are some of my favorite combos:
I put a very little skim milk in all of these to make them creamier but you dont' have to.
All of the flavors are Sugar Free.

Chocolate & Carmel
French Vanilla & Carmel
Chocolate & Coconut
Chocolate, Coconut & Cherry
White Chocolate & Raspberry
Chocolate & English Toffee

They have 0 calories. A serving size is an ounce but I never use that much (less than a tablespoon). A bottle is about $8.00 but they last FOREVER and you can get smaller bottles for a trial.

My kids also use them for their hot chocolate.

Hope that helps some :happy:

My morning coffee is my daily splurge.

Coffee (my big travel mug full, can't remember how much, maybe 3 or 4 cups)
6 tsp of sugar free powdered creamer (Great Value Sugar Free French Vanilla)
3 tbsp liquid creamer (International Delight Sugar Free French Vanilla)
= 124 calories

I have it daily. I don't want to give it up. Period. :bigsmile:

I would die without my lattes, so I just factor a 12oz skinny latte into my day (clocks in at 100cals)

Coffee is a must have for me! However I am finding it hard to stay with in my caloric intake. Any suggestions or ideas? Maybe I just need to get over it....

I have coffee with splenda and skim milk......I used to get reg milk and sugar but it really dipped into my calories as well

This was my problem too. However, did you notice that fat-free and 2% both have 12 grams of sugar :noway: I'm gonna have to try some of these suggestions... thanks everyone!

:laugh: And I thought I liked my creamer with a little coffee..agreed. My morning big cup of coffee is a non issue, not gonna give it up and my family wouldn't want me to, believe me. I will walk an extra mile before the coffee goes away. Sometimes I have done non fat powdered milk with some sugar, that can help decrease the cals and still give it a creamy taste, but usually creamer or good old cream with a bit of sugar. I have weaned myself down on the cream and sugar, the less of those the fewer cals you will get and the more coffee you can drink!!:drinker:

You can take my coffee when you pry it from my cold, jittery fingers

You should have seen how much creamer I used BEFORE weaning myself down to this small amount!! :noway:

My coffee is sweet and milky, tastes more like a latte than a coffee, really. I adore it.

I drink my coffee black with 4 teaspoons of sugar. Sometimes I do some minutes on the treadmill at night just so I can have coffee before I go to bed. That is really sad. :blushing:
