    I think that coffee is from a powder, but I'm not sure. So here is what I have in my calorie counter book. For 8oz it lists 60 calories and 2.5 grams of fat. Powders seem to less calories than a cream based product, so I guess it depends on the machine. The ones I've seen workers refilling have been powders. Just remember that logging something is better than nothing in your food diary!:flowerforyou:

    This is really good information. An eye opener. The stats are based on that 6 or 8 oz cup size but we all go for the big one, after all, it's a long time until we stop for gas again!!
