I’ve have been admittedly screwing up on my keto the largest few months. We’ve been doing slot of work at a dead relative of my husband’s home and I will over do it on the cards every few weeks. I am making it my goal to do strictly keto this month.
My question is this: What should I put in my coffee in the morning. I usually do not eat until around 10 am so I really don’t want to break the fast.
What to put in coffee in the morning
When I was trying to lose weight, I would add a teaspoon of heavy cream, 1 packet of stevia and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil.
The stevia does spike insulin but I was willing to take the small hit since it’s my only indulgence in artificial sweeteners. The CO isn’t necessary but I like that it really perks me up mentally.
Now that I am in maintenance, the only difference is I use a tablespoon of heavy cream.
I now drink my coffee black, and I find I LIKE the taste of coffee. It took me a several brands to find a dark roast I love.
I don’t use the sweetners. I have a bad sweet tooth so I try to avoid them. I was doing heavy cream for a while bit I just stopped buying it.
I put a splenda packet, heavy whipping cream, pink salt and a dash of ginger in my coffee every morning. I wake up at 5:30 but don’t eat until around 8 and it tides me over.
I tried coffee with heavy cream after joining these forums, but it’s not really my thing, especially not in the morning. Hot and black, just as God created it.
You may be on to something, there. Will have to try it!
I use 1 squirt liquid stevia, 1 tbsp coconut oil, 3 tbsp 0 carb heavy whipping cream, and 1 tbsp butter if I know I won’t eat until dinner.
1 T hwc per cup along with a few liquid stevia drops, some vanilla, and cinnamon. Do a full bpc maybe once a week.
I use 10g hydrolysed collagen powder, 6g ghee, 6g coconut oil, 1 whole raw egg, some lite-salt, and blend. Occasionally a pinch of cinnamon too.
If you want to keep the fast going from the night before, Susan’s path is best–find a roast that tastes amazing all on its own so you can drink it black.
Black coffee + 2 spoons coconut oil + 1 spoon butter + .5 spoon vanilla/chocolate essence.
Taste will take few days to grow… try for 3-4 days… and its goooddd !
Coffee. Do you need really more? Yes, cream in coffee taste good, so does oil and butter, but do you need it?
2tbsp dark roast coffee made in a french press, then add 1tbsp double cream. I usually drink 2 of those for breakfast and it keeps me going until lunch.
War peace what is it. Coffee and absolutely nothing. Hrm probably screwed that up but thought I remembered a song like that.
I used to put whole cinnamon sticks in my bean-grinder, it added just a touch of flavor (I think I need to try this again). I use a sweetener pack, 1T heavy cream, 1T coconut oil in a large cup. If I was dropping the sweetener, I might add a dash of vanilla for flavor instead. I generally don’t eat until lunch, two cups of this keep me going at least until 10 without thinking about it.
I don’t know how you people manage to make these complicated blends. I don’t have the energy to find ingredients to put in my coffee until I’ve had at least two cups. . . .
I’ve been doing it for so long…
Prep the night before, next morning just add hot coffee and blend, done
I use Splenda and 1 scoop MCT powder. Sometimes add heavy whipping cream. I know a lot of people stay away from artificial sweeteners like Splenda, but I have been using it and continuing to lose weight so I am sticking with it! I am able to put off eating until noon or 1 PM with this every morning.
