Like my name, I love latté coffee and have found that having them regularly has helped me stay on weight loss efforts. It'S expensive but worth it for me. I get a Starbucks skim milk latté with extra foam than add Splenda and chocolate powder and it'S yuummmmmy!! Like a dessert but only is skim milk (with wonderful expresso coffee). THe cold ones are good to and as more of a treat, I've asked for the chocolate syrop it comes with, but ask for one pump instead of two (only 6 g of carbs and 4 of those sugar per pump). I also see by Starbucks nutritional pamphlet that they have a sugar-free chocolate syrup, but I'll have to see if we have it in Canada.
Just wanted to give a trategy that helps me!

Hmmm...the only sugar free (sf) syrups Starbucks has here are the hazelnut and vanilla. I would kill to be able to have chocolate sf syrup in my coffee. I have to use sf. I'm on Atkins and I also get acne whenever I add some sugar back in my diet.

No. Milk is too high in sugar. It's 12g a cup (yike!). That would have me gaining weight for sure.
