Coffee/Cappuccino Intake

[woodchip200z]

Hi just wondering if (2-5) cups of coffee / cappuccino should be counted into my diet? Are they even worth worrying about?


Rarely i will ever have more than 2 cups a day.

Also, Skim milk, no sugar.

If it has calories and you eat/drink it than yes it counts.

Is it worth counting?

Cause things like celery take more cals to digest than it actually gives.. (Or so I've heard/read)

I'm thinking making coffee does too? Does the caffeine speed up the metabolism and burn it off any way?

a large flat white (350ml) with proper milk has approx 182 calories, 15g carbs, 10g fat, 10g protein.

so I'd say it is worth counting.

#of cups of black coffee counted in my life. O. If you're adding milk,cream,sugar etc it may be significant. If it's black then don't worry

With skim milk and no sugar you're probably at something like 30-50 cals per cup depending on how much you add.

Black coffee usually has around 2 cals per mug (no point in counting).. however if you use creamers, or milk/cream and sugar in your coffee, obviously this will change the cal count.

Caps normally have a decent amount of carbs.. would count if I were you.

Yea defiantly keep tabs on what your taking in

Doesn't cappuccino have chocolate powder in it - a carb?

Black coffee with nothing added probably isn't worth counting, but anything you add I would count
