    Should've said that you can also buy those flavor syrups and that's fine I guess. But if you want it low calorie, then you have to buy those sugar-free syrups. In my opinion those things, and especially the sugar free ones just make my coffee taste like chemical butt, and ruin good coffee. If you aren't of the same opinion about syrups as me that is an option.

    Also, I think the coffee mates are all non-dairy, so maybe you CAN do them. I tend to think they often taste like the paragraph above. But half and half makes me happy. And straight cream has almost no lactose in it.

    I can't stand sweet coffee, so I may not be too much help, but maybe just some black coffee with a dash of fat free milk and a bit of sugar-substitute could help?

    On Dr. Oz he said the following about coffee options:

    Dr Oz: Starbucks Mocha Frappuccino Light

    Enjoy a tall size for only 110 calories and 1 gram of fat. This coffee will help you feel full longer but without all the calories. Agatha tried it and stated it was good. It had a chocolate-y taste.

    Dr Oz: McDonald’s McCafe Caramel Mocha

    This delicious alternative has only 175 calories and 3 grams of fat for a small. Use ½ skim milk and ½ whole milk to drop even more calories.

    Dr Oz: Dunkin Donuts Iced Coffee with Turbo Shot

    This coffee has only 35 calories and 1 g fat. Add more sweetness with Stevia (sugar substitute). This coffee comes with a shot of espresso to give you more energy.

    Dr Oz: Au Bon Pain Cappuccino

    This coffee contains only 120 calories and 7 grams of fat for a small. Add Stevia for a little more sweetness.

    Hope this helps you - I know I still splerge on a coffee 1 day per week, if I do it more than one I add in extra work out time.

    I like to buy silk dark chocolate almond milk, mix 1/2 cup in with my coffee...dairy-free, and won't break the calorie bank.
