Question

I like my coffee in the morning but by the time I have two cups I’ve used four points on creamer. Does anybody else have this problem?  

Answer 1

Sugar free coffeemate Italian Cream is only 1 pt. for 3 tbs., which is plenty! (I like the taste of the cream more than the coffee, lol)

Answer 2

Try vanilla premier protein drinks. I drink one every morning but you could just use it to add to your coffee.  

Answer 3

Drink it black

Comments

@decaliter5618 that’s not an option for me but thanks.  

Answer 4

Yes and some things I won't change, if I don't like the taste why eat or drink it?  

Answer 5

I use Premier Protein as my creamer. caramel or chocolate. Only 2 pts for the whole carton and I only use a couple of Tbsp a day

Answer 6

Yes and I use those for my weekly’s

Answer 7

I use almond milk- o points

Answer 8

Non fat milk. A few cups and you'll start liking it.  

Comments

@usury84 yes, almond milk

Answer 9

Try using Jordan's skinny syrup in place of creamer, zero points several flavors

Answer 10

Thanks for your replies.  

Answer 11

Making my own cold brew was a game changer. I used to always need at least whole milk in my drip hot coffee to actively enjoy it (not just tolerate it), now I love it black

Answer 12

No because I cut back to one cup and use skim milk. Game changer for me! I’ve adapted to it and I like it. It’s your journey and you decide what you want to live with

Answer 13

Same here I use sugar too kills my points but I can’t go without or drink it plain

Answer 14

Sugar free creamer is 0 points and the premier protein drinks are 2 points for the whole container. I use them as creamer sometimes too.

Coffee mate sugar free hazelnut 0 on blue also Winco sugar free vanilla 0 on blue

Answer 39

I weaned myself off creamer and sugar. It takes time, but you will be able to enjoy the taste of coffee.  

Comments

I used to have a little coffee with my creamer. LOL But I learned to drink coffee without it. I love the taste of black coffee now and can't stand creamer.  

Answer 40

I use vanilla premier shake. Just a couple of tables spoons. One container can last me two weeks so that’s only one pt per week

Answer 41

Drink it, count it and enjoy. You can adjust in other areas

Answer 42

I've started using Premier protein too. like it.  

Answer 43

No, i use ff milk and no sweetener in my coffee

Answer 44

Try almond milk or sugar free milk substitutes

Answer 45

Premier or sf sweet Italian cream

Answer 46

I had the same problem. I just got used to 1 creamer instead of two. Now I like tasting the coffee more.  

Answer 47

Light cream

Answer 48

Use light cream. you can use less and it is less points.  

Answer 49

I use the premium protein as my sugar taste and creamer. makes a nice iced coffee. And fills me up

Answer 50

I have tried other things and can’t get past the taste and only have 26 points in a day. Right now I just use them and then eat more fruits and veggies. I hope you find a good substitute that works for you, but if not, it can be done! :)

Answer 51

Coffeemate reg is 0

Answer 52

Yes love coffee mate  

Answer 53

I drink it black but if I get a drink from Starbucks I always ask them to use almond milk. a lot fewer points

Answer 54

I have struggled with this since day one! I don't like the sweet creamers but coffee mate powder is 4 pts a day for me. I have recently swapped to fat free half and half for 2 pts per day. Its slowly growing on me. Was hard at first.  

Answer 55

Yes. That was one of the first things I eliminated - I was drinking about 8 points every morning! UGH! Now I use Premier Protein shakes for creamer (they are really low and have nice flavors I love caramel). Then I also use 1 teaspoon of sugar for 1 point and a packet of sweet n low.  

Answer 56

Is it worth trying to wean yourself off creamer slowly? just a drop at a time, then you'll be on black before you know it, still a lush caffeine kick without the points that you can use on something else :)

Answer 57

Nope. Sweet italian cream. sugar free

Answer 58

Unsweetened almond milk

Answer 59

You may have to try to drink it black

Answer 60

How about skim milk?  

Answer 61

I use premium protein

Answer 62

I eliminated sugar with either a teaspoon of cocoa powder or plain cinnamon. I use milk and less of it. You may want to try to experiment to see if you can use less of what you put in the coffee and still enjoy it. I would track it to see what you did for the week even if you have to dip into weekly/fit points. You may find value in tracking to go back and “review” what is working and what is not.  

Answer 63

Use almond milk

Answer 64

I use 5% cream 2T is one point

Answer 65

I use sugar free hazelnut, blue is 1 pt , I normally have 2 cups for a total of 3tbsp, 2 pts

Answer 66

I have that problem too but I really can’t do the sugar free. I put some either premier protein drink or muscle drink then I can cut down on the creamer

Answer 67

I think we all do , i can not drink without creamer

Answer 68

French vanilla

Answer 69

I’ve never stopped using creamer! But, I work out everyday so I feel okay about it! And I still lose weight!

Carmel premier protein drink. I use 1/4 of the carton in my coffee and oatmeal in the am. Keeps me full and tastes good.

Answer 89

I have slowly switched to black coffee. I never in a million years thought I’d be drinking black coffee  

Answer 90

When you cut the creamer and sugar out, you can actually enjoy the real flavor of coffee which is otherwise being completely masked.  

Answer 91

I use Davinci unsweetened flavoring. They have a chocolate one that makes my coffee tastes like a mocha which is my favorite.  

Answer 92

I mix 1/2 and 1/2 creamer and premier protein

Answer 93

You can try premier protien or use sugar free creamer

Answer 94

I just use premier and it’s last me for a week for 2 points

Answer 95

I asked the same question yesterday! I so love International Delight southern butter pecan but not worth the points! Someone suggested sugar free heavy cream whipped with vanilla extract. I tried this morning, not too bad.
