    Love our Keurig..... Drink Coffee People Donut Shop blend, it is a medium roast and I add 2 spoonful of Domino Pure Cane sugar and 2 Tbsp. of International Delight Hershey's Chocolate and Caramel Creamer... Only do 1 in the morning to wake me up..

    I have a Keurig at my work as well. I drink all kinds. Working graveyard I used to average 6-8 mugs. Now it's just 1-2 and only at work. I rarely drink it outside of work. ½ Tbsp of agave with whey protein powder as a creamer. I don't like Starbucks. To me Starbucks is like the McDonald's of burgers. Yes you know what you are going to get but in my opinion there is so much better out there. Tully's is one of my favorites for big name brand and also "Death before Decaf"

    Sacrilege! McDonalds coffee is the bane of coffee existence. Starbucks is like angels dancing on my tongue.

    I LOVE LOVE coffee....If im drinking Decaf I prefer Archer Farms (cinnamon vanilla nut) Archer Farms is a Target brand. with 2 tablespoons of french vanilla creamer sugar free and 1 trivua packet.

    If Im drinking reg, im not to picky...same creamer and "sugar" as above!

    With 3 busy little boys under foot, I gotta have something to get me going in the morning!

    Went from 1-2 pots to none now... I only drink water... the only reason I had to stop was that I was having chronic migraines. Since I have quit drinking coffee, I have not had one headache. 2 months and counting :happy:

    I used to drink one to two cups a day but it started making me feel sick. The stronger it was, the worse I felt. I went to the doctor for some other issues and found out I am allergic to the protein in it. Bummer! So now I am trying mornings the English way with tea.

    Coffee? A habit? Not me. I only drink it when I'm awake. Usually popping the k-cups in my Keurig before work or in the evening (love the Green Mountain Black Magic or Island Coconut) then my personal Black & Decker in my office a few times during the day (love me some of that stright-up Cafe Bustelo). I'm shopping around for a good price on IV bags so I don't have to worry about using a mug anymore.

    If I"m going to pay for coffee, McDonald's is the best. While I may "feel special" as I sit in my car, idling in the drive-thru at Starbucks, I always have a hard time remembering which size translates to "extra large", and then I understand they have to make it super-hot to justify the trendy little "sleeve" thing, but really? It's like driving around with molten lava in my drink console. I'll take a large black coffee from McD's ANYTIME!!

    Iced w/ half & half. Specifically, one Dark Magic K-cup brewed over ice on the 4th setting and a 2nd one brewed on the 3rd setting. Occasionally, I'll need a kick in the pants midday and will go for another, but not that often. No sweetener of any kind ever - hate it.

    Skinny latte every morning (homemade) and usually an iced coffee in the afternoon.

    You can function without it. I think my "need" is mental mostly. Drinking lots of water and eating every
    couple hours can have the same wake-up effect. But I like coffee, so it's my drug of choice.

    I use a large ceramic mug that holds about 2 cups of fresh brewed coffee. I like to buy the beans from a local coffee stand. I put 2 splendas and 3 tbsp of SF vanilla creamer. That's usually all I drink for the day. Sometimes I might have an 8 oz cup at work (I work 12 night shifts). And yes, I have to drink it every day. I think it's mostly because of habit and routine, but I bet if I went without it it wouldn't be pretty. I've come a long way because before starting this journey I use to buy a 16oz white chocolate mocha pretty much every day. I miss those.

    I usually have two cups every day, unless I decide I need Starbucks and their skinny peppermint mocha.

    1st cup - usually with breakfast...1 Truvia packet and 1 Tbsp CoffeeMate peppermint mocha creamer

    2nd cup - usually at work mid-morning (0900-ish) - 2 Truvia packets and 2 "buckets" of whatever creamer work provides

    a couple cups ever morning with a tiny bit of sugar free creamer. sometimes i will make my own iced coffee or swing by mcdonalds or starbucks. i used to be a big time diet pepsi drinker (a whole cube only lasted 2 days, plus i bought sodas at work and at fast food places). I tried to cold turkey on the caffeine but it is to hard when you have five kids to make it without it on my 18-20 hour days. i take in much less caffeine now though in comparison to what I was.

    I make lattes at home, 4 ounces espresso & 1 cup calorie countdown 2% milk & a few pumps of my favorite sugar-free syrup (lately vanilla or hazelnut, but I also mix up chocolate & cherry). I just don't function without it!
