Starbucks..what do you order??



Recommended Posts

Jachut- That is such an interesting perspective! I notice lots more people taking their drinks to go. In NY the Starbucks' cup is almost a form of fashion accessory, with everybody schelping one around (myself included).You can tell the season by the type of cup in everyones hand. I even noticed that they started to make a reusable form of their clear plastic cup made out of durable plastic and are selling it for $14.

I don't usually do Starbucks, but the other day I got an iced coffee (black coffee on ice) and it was $2.79. Robbery.

By the way, Jachut, I agree on both the gum chewing and the slurping from a huge paper cup.

Not a coffee drinker, but I am quite fond of my venti low-fat green tea frappucino, no whip!

Somone did you wrong!! I don't even pay for the for my double shot over ice - think maybe 1.89 which is still robbery.

This is my favorite and I only have it about twice a month: Venti iced house coffee with 5 pumps of white chocolate mocha.

Venti not grande

I love green tea frappacinos but they are really fattening.

I saw someone get one of those the other day - it was frozen. I'm so tempted but I heard they are high in everything - fat, calories, and sugar.

Okay, I had to throw in my two cents here....I love the frapps at starbucks...My favorite is strawberries in cream...But when the make it I ask them to make it light, and I always get a tall size (small). Not all starbucks will do it...But the one at my college hooks me up!! I don't do it everyday, but maybe once a month or every two months. Also for a warm drink I like the sugar free skinny latte with carmel and vanilla shots...MMmmm so yummy!

My favorite is a tall non-fat carmel machiatto. I don't really care for the sugar free Syrup. I only go to Starbucks once or month if that often.

When I go, it's the Venti Skinny (nonfat, sugar free, no whipped cream) Mocha, iced, Decaf. 120 cals + I get my milk.

It makes a decent-enough Breakfast in a hurry because you get 10 grams Protein without all the other crap. The only sugars and carbs are from the milk. It's not substantial enough for every day, but it's better thank skipping altogether. And because I get decaf, my hunger isn't goaded into reappearing later.

I heard that they are discontinuing the already-short-lived SF Mocha, so I bought a bottle and have it behind their counter with my name on it. :(

Two other options I like are brewed coffee, either black or with a little nonfat milk, or iced green tea, unsweetened.

I am a Starbucks Junkie!! I use to go every day and at my highest point I was having two venti iced drinks a day. I really like the Skinny latte's either hot or cold. My new craving is the Black Shaken Iced tea with sweet-n-low. I had 3 of them yesterday.....

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
