coffee
 | Hi, Teresa. We definitely don’t want you using artificial sweeteners either! If it is a small amount such as a teaspoon day and you like the “white” taste, we suggest xylitol or erythritol (which you can find at health-oriented stores such as whole foods, or online). If you don’t mind a maple sort of taste, you can try coconut or whole/raw cane sugar (found in the same sorts of stores). |
 | I usually use 1 tsp of pure white sugar in my coffee or tea. What would be the best substitute for that. I do not really like the equal or all of the artificial sweeteners, I don’t think they are good for you but I need something, don’t like the taste of black coffee. Thanks! |
 | Thanks Ossie, I’ll try it! |
| | Hi, jnk007. My original response is below, but I’ll repost – your half-and-half is fine, as long as it is real, with no chemical additives or sweeteners. Other options include vegetal “milks” such as almond and hazelnut milk, if you like those flavors. |
| | Hi Ossie, I have asked this question twice without an answer: |
| | Hi, Robby. That spread is fine. |

 | thus is my first week don’t know how to put a picture on and I I want to know if I can use Brummel & brown yogurt spread for margin |
| | Hi Ossie, what else would you suggest as a whitener that does not use a fat exchange? |
| | Hi, marg_new, and welcome! It depends what brown sugar you are using. Many brown sugar products are actually refined sugars with a few additives. We prefer you use whole raw sugar or coconut sugar, which are both brown but much better for you. And of course, watch the amounts, as they can add up quickly – each tablespoon equals a carb exchange. |
 | This is day two of me being on the plan….. don’t like l sweeteners can I use brown sugar in my coffee |
| | Hi Ossie, what else would you suggest as a whitener that does not use a fat exchange? |
| | Hi, Joy (and thanks, mohoney!). Tea is particularly recommended, especially whole leaf tea. If you use bags, be sure to rinse them in cool water before making the tea, to get rid of the coating. |
 | JoyThompson053, WE are all in this together, you will lose the weight just take one day at a time. |
 | Is Tea ok too? I drink it with just milk! This is my first day on the plan and I need lots of encouragement. I really want to lose weight our daughter is getting married this August. |
