To follow dah rules it's up to 2 oz. of half and half (or whole milk I believe) or cream, once a day outside the Reward Meal. Not to be split as in (I tried this trick once ) 1 oz., of half and half in a cup of coffee, and later another in another cup.

I know it's not a popular answer. I've learned to enjoy various teas a great deal...who knew there was such flavor out there in teas? And I mean the non-fruity, no flavors added teas

Yes, the advice by the Hellers was to finish the cup of coffee w/cream etc within 15 minutes.
