Hello! I was banded on May 6, 2011. My problem is that I am addicted to coffee drinks... Mostly iced coffee with an occasional SB java chip lite frappucino. I haven't done the liquid calories since my surgery b/c my doctor is adament about it, but I miss my coffee! Are there any lower calorie alternatives? I just can't drink coffee or iced coffee black. And my doctor doesn't want me drinking milk b/c it's "liquid calories" so the skinny lattes are out too, if I follow his rules to the letter. Any ideas out there? I do admit that during my liquid phase after my first fill, I got a grande skinny caramel macchiato from SB (160 calories, I think) but I added it to my daily calorie total...still, I know there wasn't a whole lot of Protein in it...so maybe I didn't do so hot....

I did not KNOW that they have protein powder at SB!!! Wow! I am going to ask for this for sure! That's awesome. I am 'tighter' in the morning, although I have only had one fill so I am not quite limited ONLY to liquids; just to really soft stuff in the mornings so far!

Thanks! I'll give it a try. My Keurig is missing me!!!!!
