drinking flavored coffee

Hi Cathe,

I was wondering if it is okay to drink coffee with cream and sugar a lil shot of flavor. I usual get one or two medium dunkin donuts coffee during morning before work and one after work but not sure it is good for dieting or not. Please let me know!

Thanks

I have just started to become a coffee drinker when last semester I had a Psychiatric Nursing class at 8 am in the morning and since then it just tastes good. What kind of creamer are you using, I use half and half and use splenda to sweeten it instead of sugar which if you are drinking that many coffee's in the morning can be a huge source of unnecessary calories. Consider what you are putting in coffee because other than that I believe that coffee can be a perfectly good drink that can be part of a clean diet.
Also the flavoring can add serious calories because its loaded with sugar, high fructose corn syrup and other hidden sources of calories.

I get toasted almond from dunkin donuts. its just regular coffee with a shot of toasted alond flavor. I use a lil bit of milk and about a packet of sugar. I just get it before I go into work and it lasts me till about noon. I just sip it basically and the caffine gives me a lil more energy I think anyway. I just have a problem with bloated in the lower abs and just cant seem to figure out what is causing it. I have cut out alot of salt and carbs. basically just eat high protein tons of salad and water plus i do cathe's dvd's but the belly bulge is still there.

I have found that most of the diet sweeteners that you get or the creamers and flavorings with high fructose corn sweetener leave me bloated. I also eat tons of salad, loads of green veggies, and lots of protein. I think I am better off with a few starchy carbs ove the sweeteners and high fructose corn sweetener. Maybe you should try some skim milk or light soy milk and maybe a few drops of vanilla.

IA with diane sue. btw i am from NJ and miss dunkin donuts and wawa coffees LOL,none in central VA. i just use skim milk in my coffees no sugar. i also search out dark roast(albeit more expensive sometimes here) but its a good flavor paired with the milk. i would watch those sweetners,sugar, and flavoring. its pretty much like drinking your calories in some form of sugar.
