Iced Coffee

[10mm-man]

Don't drink the stuff, something like 550 to 750 calories per cup.

But have a friend who got hooked on it and she gained about 20 lbs over a year. Doc said pretty much just the coffee.

maybe she should cut back on the ice.

O wait! No calories in Iced coffee... i don't add anything to it, just black. If you go to Starbucks or others and get the foo foo Iced drinks then yes calorie loaded. As a matter of fact I lost 14 lbs in the last six weeks.

When you said # thought you meant something else....

Excerpt from a website (livestrong) Calories

One cup of regular black coffee brewed from ground beans holds only 2 calories, and 1 fluid ounce of rich black espresso contains only 1 calorie. One teaspoon of regular instant coffee powder also carries just 2 calories. Brewing coffee from decaffeinated beans reduces the calorie count to zero, but decaffeinated coffee powder doubles the calories found in 1 teaspoon to 4. Sweeteners, flavorings and cream or milk deliver the calories in rich modern coffee drinks, some of which may yield 700 calories per serving.

No sweeteners nor syrup , but 1/2 and 1/2 does have calories.
Probably put at least 5 lbs off of it.

I sometime use low fat but calories are from the milk, if whole milk prob like 100-200 calories a cup..... I seldom use milk.

Yeah, just don't add the caramel macchiato double chocolate heavy whipping cream Karo syrup crap. If you wanna make it sweet, use that generic equal stuff.
