  1. So if I order it nonfat it doesn't have any added sugar in the flat white? Cool! Cinnamon Dolce sounds wonderful I will ask if they have it at mine!
  2. I just read my post again...I apologize as I didn't mean for it to come across snotty, as I think it kind of did. That was not my intention. I have worked for Starbucks for 11 years and fortunately, as a perk, I get to try everything and test out a lot of different varieties without having to pay a fortune for doing so. Is the Starbucks you visit a freestanding store or a licensed store(inside a target, a freeway oasis, airport, grocery store, etc..)? Those tend to have more limited varieties than actual stores. Even with our variety, I still buy sugar free Torani syrups from a neighboring grocery store because they have such a huge selection and add to my tumbler to just add espresso and milk to. Oh you didn't sound snotty not at all! Sorry if my reply made it sound that way! I frequent two freestanding and those are the only SF ones on their menu. Maybe they have more they just don't put on the menu and I need to ask for? So if you work there here's a Q for you--I love the flat white! Why is the calorie and sugar count higher on those? What's actually in them?
  3. I stand corrected on the calories in espresso! But I'm jealous of your Starbucks! Ours only has sugar free vanilla, hazelnut and mocha. No other SF syrups!
  4. Yes it's possible. It's not predictable or sustainable. You may hit it (I did) but don't feel like a failure if you don't.
  5. Tall = smallest size cup (actually there's also a short but it's not on the menu). Normally they put one shot of espresso in drinks made for a size tall/small. If you ask for a double tall it's two shots of espresso in a tall/small. A cappuccino is espresso with mostly foamed milk and a little bit of steamed milk. A latte is espresso with steamed milk and a bit of foamed milk on top. A "dry" espresso is just the foamed milk no steamed milk. So basically what I order is two shots of espresso in a size small cup with just a little bit of foamed milk on top. The espresso is calorie free and the nonfat steamed milk is about 50 calories no fat and about 5g protein and 8g carbs from the milk
  6. Rather than being sacs filled with saline or liquid/jelly silicone they are solid silicone gel the texture of a gummy bear
  7. Double tall nonfat dry cappuccino!
  8. I too got a new drivers license and it arrived in the mail....
  9. Umm Yeah my incisions were nowhere near that low and I wasn't requested to shave and I didn't wake up shaved. Seems odd to me why they would need that area shaved.
  10. Glad you got t checked out and you are doing better!
  11. Yup this. I lost all my 135lbs using Synthrax matrix and continue to maintain using it. I am over two years out.
  12. I love using them! Vanilla bean, salted caramel, hazelnut, almond and peppermint are my favorites!
  13. Love yoga!!! Any teacher worth their salt will help you adapt any pose to your limitations with props (blocks, blankets, bolsters, etc).
  14. The surgery was painful the implants not so much! I was told I didn't have enough breast tissue/fat left in my breasts to get the gummy bear implants, they would show beneath. Same with the saline ones--on those the corners/edges would show. So I have regular silicone dual plane placement (half under and half over the muscle). I never ever dreamed I would get implants! I always had huge ones. Not anymore.
  15. Yes had my gallbladder out a little less than a year before my sleeve surgery and had no complications at all.
  16. Mmmmm my newest version-- Carrot Cake! Shredded a carrot Mixed with (stay with me) baby food puréed carrots Added allspice, cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg and ground ginger (could use pumpkin pie spice) Mixed with vanilla Syntrax matrix and the baking powder and a splash fairlife milk. Topped with low fat cream cheese mixed half and half with fage 0% Viola, carrot cake!
  17. Keep us posted!
  18. Shouldn't high calorie be a plus for you? Here are the nutritional facts on the nutritional yeast I just bought, seems good to me!
  19. Go see someone, your health and comfort is worth it. If it's the ER so be it!
  20. Yikes yeah I'd go see someone--a GP or walk in clinic if you don't want to go to the ER
  21. Nothing is inherently wrong with oatmeal. Some people limit carbs either because that's their plan or because it's a choice they've made or because after experimenting they've found out its what works for them. Oatmeal is kind of an in betweener carb. It's not like refined sugar, white bread, white potatoes, white rice or Cookies which have little nutritional value but it's more calorie dense and less nutrition than the more complex carbs like green vegetables. It's like whole wheat bread, sweet potatoes, etc. some avoid them some don't. I avoided it during my loss phase but use it now once or twice a week during maintenance.
  22. I'll be the voice of the other side. I am over two years out and still don't use them. My stomach loudly protests if I do. So this is another of those things that varies from person to person.
  23. Syntrax matrix. I especially like the mint cookie and the peanut butter cookie
