coffee and creamers

[wayupnorth 1]

I am looking for a Creamer? What is one of the better low calorie, high Protein good tasting Creamers to go with my Decaf coffee that I have learned to like. I like both powders and liquid. I am also wondering before we starting trying to get 70-80 grams of protein in since surgery. Do you think we consumed that amount before surgery?? Three months out. 29# since day of surgery.

For a while, I just used SF International Delight. Last week I received some BariWise Protein hot chocolate (15gm protein), I now turn my morning coffee into a mocha by adding coffee to the protein hot chocolate powder. I get my coffee and Breakfast together. I also received some Bariwise protein Almond Cappuccino but haven't tried it yet in my coffee .

I'm fascinated by these things, we dont have them here. Oh, there's coffeemate, which is a powder, hidden on the bottom back shelf in some supermarkets but here, we just put a dash of cold milk in coffee. Does nobody do that?

Not a criticism at all, just one of those cultural oddities.

Milk with your coffee!!! You crazy Aussies with your backward flushing toilets, Christmas in the middle of Summer, and that Platypus thing you got running around. Where do you guys come up with these crazy things? LOL. Just kidding. I have always used cream or artificial cream, milk just seems to weak to do the job. I am sure we probably used milk without hesitation until some company started marketing creamer. Now the rest is history.

Good question --- funny I prefer milk in my hot tea; however, have never cared for milk in my coffee. And I don't use just plain ole coffeemate, no, mine have to be flavored.

Guess we're just spoiled!

Bill, you're too funny.

Also probably right on on the creamer theory - and of course they keep coming out with all these new flavours that we just have to try - keeps us buying!

Gotta admit. I use to always use milk in my coffee. but I like HOT coffee... and the milk always cooled it too much for me. so I went to Creamers.< /span>

Since my VSG...I had quit coffee about a year prior, but now drink it in the morning, but I use my Protein Drink in it. I use the whey Protein Cookies n' cream and it is YUMMMMMMY!!! Get my coffee "fix" and my protein all at once, I can't eat Breakfast, but am trying to make sure I get in my 3 meals a day, it works for me.

Great idea, Chancie. I am still in mushies and have not had coffee yet but I think the Jay Rob chocolate Protein shake I drink would make it into a delicious mocha. We've had a cold snap (50 degrees in SW LA is COLD!) and I think I'll try it tomorrow morning! Gotta warm the innards in the morning!
