I finally found a great alternative to cow's milk (too many carbs)...unsweetened almond milk (plain or vanilla).  I then add a packet of Swiss Miss diet hot chocolate.
Stats:  65 calories, 4 net carbs, 3 protein.  plus 457mg calcium (compared to 276 mg in one cup of milk).

 Jennifer,

Have you tried it in coffee?

Hi George.  You mean almond milk in coffee?  Yes, and I had to dump it out!  I LOVE my morning coffee with splenda and half n half.  I wanted to reduce my caloric intake so I tried the almond milk in place of half n half.  No good!  Oh well, this is the only time during the day I "drink" my calories.
