Milk in tea!

[luke0380]

Anyone know what the rules are with having milk in tea !?!?

I was told your meant to drink tea black , but i've never had, don't think i could and if that was the case i would have to go without tea.

It's the only really thing i have that's hot, and i am cold enough as it is.

Do you not have your shakes hot? I love the choc mint hot. no milk on SS but theres a skimmed milk allowance from 810 onwards or on the SS+ step if you're using 4 packs+milk. I didn't drink much tea on the first 3 months of the diet as I dont like it black so Id rather not have at all but back to enjoying it now!

nope not hot , i got some taste/smell problem with my nose so most things taste a bit yucky (long story!) so i just normaly have strawberry.

i am on the 810, but we have Semi Skimmed at work , does it really matter if it is not skimmed?

Yes semi skimmed has more fat, carbs and calories and can affect your weightloss. Stick to skimmed only.

can you not take in your own little carton of skimmed milk?
i used to do that at my work and had it labelled with my name, lol

I'm doing a mixture of SS and SS+ as I couldn't go without milk in my coffee (did only one week of black, yuk). Some days I have 3 packs + milk, sometimes 4 + milk. Skimmed at home but semi skimmed at work, and it's not made a huge difference to me as I've lost 20 lbs in 4 weeks

Hi Luke,I have found a great substitute to milk in tea - banana tetra. You can not taste the banana with the little bit you put in - it's lush to be able to have creamy/milky tea - i'm a real tea belly too! Banana tetra is sooooo the way to go. I know it sounds *yuck* but give it a go, you may be pleasently suprised Enjoy x x x

I have given up tea and coffee cos I love them so much and cant have milk, gutted

 

[slimwannabe]

The only thing i have missed is coffee and so i tend to add some vanilla powder to it as a milk substitute,is kinda like having a starbucks vanilla coffee yummy!!

I've heard a few people say they have banana tetra in their tea, and evidently it doesn't taste at all like banana. Sound revolting to me, but I'll take their word for it

Don't forget you can have herbal teas such as green tea, mint tea and nettle tea. That makes a change

Does anyone know if we can have green tea flovoured with lemon as it comes out the box? not obviously adding lemon as thats a no no i know that

Will have to give this banana in tea a try, thanks emmapetty
