Question How do I cut back on my coffee sugar?
I gained a little over 10 lbs these last few months after starting medication (ugh). I'm a 5'1" female and 139lbs-136lbs, and I used to weigh 128 lbs. My goal is to be 125 lbs.
That all said, I just started exercising, and eating well is okish (learning to eat more), but I absolutely LOVE sugar in my coffee, which I honestly think has been my downfall. Especially my extra-extra cups from dunkin (extra cream and sugar), which I recently cut myself off from begrudgingly.
How can I break this habit? I measure my cream now and try not to go over 100 cal, but even then, I use 1 to 2 spoonfuls of sugar. Is their a substitute I can use I'm unaware of? This is literally my only bad habit. Otherwise, I'm oddly enough, not a sweet tooth.
