You are not suppose to have milk at all. You can have milk in the week where you have to have a break.

Black tea and coffee BUT you can use tablet sweetner! I am finding black tea with sweetner is really nice. Black coffee I am used to now! Also you can have peppermint tea, green tea, redbush tea and earl grey. Anything that is from a leaf- so no fruit teas or anything "with honey".

If you still cannot stand it try Buillon. You can have two teaspoons of that a day and it makes a lovely savoury drink!

I have always had 2 mugs of coffee a day with a dash of skimmed milk in, cannot face the day without coffee and cannot drink it black, then I stick to black tea for the rest of the day x

I was wondering the same thing myself Clair. It's the no1 thing that bothers me...no milk in my first morning coffee

Here's the nutritional content of original coffee mate
Serving size 1 tsp= 2grams
Calories = 10
Calories from fat = 6g
% of daily value
Total fat = 0.7g 1%
Saturated fat =0.7 g 3%
Trans fat = 0g 0%
Cholesterol = 0g 0%
Sodium = 0g 0%
Total carbohydrates = 0.7 g 0%
Protein = 0g 0%

Seems like there's not a lot in there if you only add to one or two cups daily but I'm no expert. Carb content is low

And here is for 1% fat milk (skimmed) to see the difference and compare.
Serving size 244g a cup full

Calories = 102 daily %
Calories from fat = 21
Total fat = 2g 4%
saturated fat =2g 8%
trans fat = 0g 0
Cholesterol = 12mg 4%
sodium = 107mg 4%
total carbohydrate = 13g 4%
of which is dietry fibre 0
of which sugars 13g
protein = 8g
Vit A 10%
Calcium 29%

I found them on nutritiondata.self.com

Using milk with exante diet affects everyone differently. For some people it knocks them out of ketosis and makes them feel hungry. I drink lots of black coffee but mid afternoon when I feel completely empty, a black coffee doesn't agree with me so I have a cup of tea with semi skimmmed milk each day. I can also get away with one skinny latte per week (my treat). I think it's a case of trial and error to find out what works for you.
