i live in canada and every once in a while i will go to tim hortons coffee shop

for a black coffee. every time i come home i am high. so now i get a black tea

and visit with my friends and have no high blood sugar. karen from canada

Surely this isn't true?

I just read that only 6 fluid ounces of black coffee has 178 calories. This

may not sound like a lot to most people, but when you can drink 100 ounces in a

day easy, well this adds up to a lot of calories. I just can't understand how

black coffee with no sugar or cream in it can have so many calories. When you

are trying to lose weight, you must burn more then you take in or it is fighting

a losing battle. I enjoy a bit of cream in my coffee and this makes it go higher

in calories. I keep thinking this has to be a mistake, but I've looked at it

over and over and it isn't changing. When I go out to eat breakfast I let them

refill my coffee cup as many times as they come around. How can this be so?

Mark, I think you are reading the wrong column. Coffee does show 1 or

1.something carbs, but certainly not 170. Think about it; every diet in the

world allows black coffee and that surely wouldn't be the case if it has

carbs, i.e., sugar.

Hope that helps Oh, you will have to check on the cream you add or even the

non-dairy types. I don't know how much they might have.

I know the carbs are low, but when your trying to drop the weight all these

calories I can drink in just coffee and add up. I understand the bottom line in

losing weight is simple, you have to burn more then you eat in calories per day.

I even went to look at the tea and the calorie count for it is the same per

ounce. Well I suppose we all have to hold on to some thing that we just dig. I

would have a very hard time giving up my coffee for sure. I use to have a Atkins

calorie and carb guide around here some where. i will find it and see what it

says about the calories in coffee and tea. I don't think the coffee is really

causing any big change in my sugar levels, but this many calories in one day

from just coffee could be a problem if I work hard at exercising and the pounds

aren't dropping off. Like I said, you have to burn more calories in one day then

you take in, or you are beatting your head at a brick wall that isn't going to

move.

There are no calories in coffee-unless you put some calories in with

cream or sugar. Coffee and ta are considered a " free food " .

Pat,

Coffee never seems to affect my blood sugar. Of course I drink coffee with

Splenda and usually black. If I go out somewhere and have coffee, sometimes

I add a little bit of cream, but never very much. Never had a problem with a

high BS from coffee, but YMMV.

Mark,

It seems the chart you mentioned is incorrect, or perhaps you are not reading it

correctly. It could be that lots of cream and sugar might get a cup of coffee

up in the 170 calories range (I forget how many carbs you mentioned), but I'm

almost positive caffeine has no, or only a tiny am ount, of calories/carbs.

Dave

Surely this isn't true?

[Guest guest]

Or, eliminate a small portion of something else in exchange. A small amount of

creamer, even a sugar cube, can easily be addressed. Having said that, if you

are on a really restrictive diet, perhaps way less than 1000 calories per day,

then each calorie does literally add up.

I have heard that Starbucks coffe is a lot of calories. I haven't tried it, but

they put a lot of things in it. I wonder if you were reading something about

their coffee? Just a thought. I am a coffeedrinker and with splndy and milk it

is one thing I can really depend on to not affect blood sugar readings.

take in or it is fighting a losing battle. I enjoy a bit of cream in my

coffee and this makes it go higher in calories. I keep thinking this has to

be a mistake, but I've looked at it over and over and it isn't changing.

When I go out to eat breakfast I let them refill my coffee cup as many times

as they come around. How can this be so?

Thankyou very much for all the trouble you are going to. I really

appreciate it.

Surely this isn't true?

I just read that only 6 fluid ounces of black coffee has 178 calories.

This may not sound like a lot to most people, but when you can drink 100

ounces in a day easy, well this adds up to a lot of calories. I just can't

understand how black coffee with no sugar or cream in it can have so many

calories. When you are trying to lose weight, you must burn more then you

take in or it is fighting a losing battle. I enjoy a bit of cream in my

No Mam, it was a carb counter that Dean Master's sent to us on the list a

while back ago. The number that I thought was the amount of calories must be

some thing different I'm thinking. No matter now. I'm glad I can continue to

enjoy my coffee with out concern. Thanks a lot.

Keep in mind, and not to confuse the issue, that some folks reported caffeine

does apparently have an affect on them. I don't think this is the norm, but as

I like to say, use trial and error to determine which foods work for you, as

well as how much insulin (or medication) to dose.
