Sugar Free Coffeemate

[CyndiMomto3 0]

Hi everyone! I am on day 8 of my 10 day full liquid diet-I am being banded this Tuesday, May 12th. (I am so excited I can hardly stand it!) I have been doing extremely well on my diet and am proud to say that I have stuck to it faithfully, not even a BITE of anything that is not on the list. :tt2: I need to adjust my ticker b/c I've lost 12 lbs already!

My question is regarding sugar free coffeemate. I recently purchased some and have noticed that it really seems to upset my stomach. I'm assuming it's because of an ingredient in there to replace the sugar but I'm just wondering if anyone else has had the same experience. Thank you in advance!!

Like Jack, I like coffee to taste like coffee. You cant even buy coffee creamer here at all. What's wrong with a dash of cold milk?

What I've read and been told is 1-2 cups of coffee a day is fine, Decaf is best due to the caffeine content in regular. And obviously they don't want us going to Starbucks and ordering something high in calories, fat, carbs and sugar.
