It's not bad on calories.

I will keep that in mind. It would be nice to find a nice protein drink that has a coffee taste. That way I am getting my coffee fix and getting the protein. Heck. I might just add the unflavored unjury to the frap. ;)

I THINK I've heard someone say before that Starbucks has protein that they can add to their drinks, but I'm not sure if it's true or not. If you do try it, though, I wouldn't add it to the hot drinks, since protein curdles at high temperatures. I found that out the hard way. It's nasty.

Oh definatley. Like I said. Not a hot drink drinker. can't stand cocoa....the french vanilla caps are WAYYYYYYYYY too sweet. Just prefer the cold. Even in the winter. Doesn't get too cold down here in rawfish country though.

My dietician told me that lattes are ok. I know she'd prefer if I used SF flavor, but I really don't like it (I used it when I was doing Atkins). I have always put half the flavoring in anyway (eg. two pumps in a grande, vs. the regular 4 pumps), so that's what I still do, although I get talls now instead of grandes. I've also added vanilla unjury to my lattes with no flavoring and that's not too bad (I wait for them to cool!).

I do get decaf, since now that I'm off the caffeine, I really notice how it affects me. I used to be a big-time coffee drinker, and I do still have it occasionally, but it's not every day anymore.

This band is making me healthy in more ways than just the eating! I've cut caffeine, I quit smoking, I'm moving more, the list goes on! Yay band! LOL!
