I was thinking about getting a Decaf skinny vanilla latte ... I think it is 90-100 calories I have a freebie I need to use. LOL!

I say go for it!

A tall, non fat Decaf latte has 10 grams of Protein and only 100 calories. As long as you add sugar free Syrup, you get no extra calories. I usually just get Splenda in mine, but every once in a while, I'll add sugar free mocha. I have one daily. If I'm needing extra calories, I get the grande. 130 calories and 13 grams of protein.

You all know starbucks sells Protein powder they're willing to steam with your milk?

I get it every day.

Grande skinny latte with 1 scoop Protein and 2 splenda $4.40.

The whey protein tastes like vanilla

I knew they had Protein Powder, I just didn't know it could be added to a hot drink. I usually get it in a mocha light frappucino, so that it gets blended. It doesn't clump in the latte?

No not of they steam it in the milk. If they won't steam it with the milk don't get it.

I got my freebie today. grande Decaf skinny vanilla latte with Protein.

Unfortunately they messed it up. They didn't mix the Protein powder in the cold milk before steaming it. I watched them mess it up. It had clumps so I spent a lot of time declumping it. The taste was great! Perfect coffee fix! Thanks guys.

Next time i will be sure to explain how to prevent the clumps

Yes and don't take no or some othe bs for an answer.

I have gotten - it's an allergen. What allergen? Well people who can't have whey. So a dairy allergen ? They won't be having latte

It clogs our steamers. No they don't you run the steamer right after. Most good baristas do.

When I see them do it and messing it up I stop them immediately and refuse it.

I get nonfat lattes once or twice a week. All that milk has some Protein and its a nice treat post gym

If you like frappachinos, you can ask them to make it without base. Even the light frap base has a ton of carbs. With out base its just coffee, milk, ice, and Syrup. It will change the texture some but it's still good.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
