Starbucks!!!



Recommended Posts

I thought I was the only obsessed with Starbucks. I travel every week and it is definately my daily routine. (Have withdraws if I can't have my Starbucks).

My obsession, Venti - sugar free vanilla nonfat latte. Its my Breakfast.

At least I am on a daily per-diem and can afford it without blinking an eye. LOL

See ya at Starbucks

now if they'd just come out with non-fat, sugar free, mocha frappuccino! I love frap's but they are SO darn high in fat and calories!!!!!! I wonder if I could get them to make it that way...add splenda instead of sugar...skim milk...cocoa powder....OK...I need to STOP!!! lol

Yummy Yummy! I went out and got the non-fat, no whip, sugar free, cinnamon dolce latte after reading this thread. My first starbucks since being banded. I couldn't even finish the tall but boy was it yummy!!

Hey, Thanks for the tip. Man I love Starbucks!:D My mouth is watering thinking about it right now. Is Grande a bit big of a size to drink though? I drink the tall size which is the smallest one. Susannah

Actually, a "short" is the smallest Starbucks size. They don't have it on the menu board...you have to ask for it, but it is an 8 oz serving...just right post-band.

I was a long term "Venti" vanilla latte drinker (that's the 20 oz size), and since being banded I have started ordering a "short" and it find it is more than enough...usually enjoyed over an hour or so.

I have a Starbucks 3-4 times a week as my Breakfast. A grande sugar-free vanilla non-fat latte packs 16 grams of Protein into 160 calories! Not to mention it gives you nearly half the Calcium you need for the day.

Just stay away from the blended frappucino drinks. Belive it or not, I've only had one frappucino in my life! They're packed with calories and sugars so I try and stay away...

Hey Betsy Jane,

I like the idea of making something like your drink and saving some $$. What is the recipe for your drink please?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
