WW and Coffee!

Part of my WW menu re-do is finding a new way to take my coffee. I was using 4pts a day on flavored creamer alone!!

How do you take your coffee, and how many points is it?

I like it black, for 0 pts. Sometimes when I drink it iced, I put in a little coconut milk- even the unsweetened adds some sweetness and coconut flavor, and depending on how much you add, it is either 0 or 1 pt.

Re: WW and Coffee!

I use ff half and half or skim plus milk most of the time, with Splenda or Truvia. For the amount I use (I maybe have 2-3 cups a day - 2 in the morning, and sometimes a third later in the day), I count 1 pt for the milk or ff half and half.

Sometimes I use regular full-fat half and half and that is 1 pt for 2 TB, so really not that bad (and I find I need less of the full fat half and half because it is very creamy).

I am not a big fan of artificial sweeteners... don't cook or bake with it, and try to avoid sugar-free products. But I do use it in my coffee and tea to keep the points down, so for me, it's worth it to use it in that limited capacity. I use 1 packet per large mug, or if I have a jumbo iced coffee, I may use 2 packets of sweetener.

I drink it with skim and slowly cut out the sugar.

Black. Sometimes I use a tiny bit of sugar, but not enough to give it a points value.
