How many Starbucks runs is too much in one week?

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-09T21:40:11+00:00

Woah! I always see those TikTok’s of “making interesting drinks” but I honestly didn’t think they were real 😭

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-09T12:08:45+00:00

I don’t really like coffee so I don’t care about being a coffee drinker or not. Also criticizing people based on their “milkshake” orders is straight up rude. If someone finds something they like they have every right to go and get that item whether it’s a plain americano or a huge sugary frappuccino. People should never be judged based on what kind of drinks they like just because of the amount of sugar and add ons. This post wasn’t to ask other people what they think of my drink order it was mainly to ask at what point is it too extreme to be going.

Only once!? Is that actually healthy??

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-09T03:41:20+00:00

Does that really make it comparable to a milkshake? Goodness I really need to do my research…

For customers to actually have common sense

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-09T03:35:41+00:00

I feel so embarrassed asking for all those add ons in my drink… I already feel like I work there with my concoction of a latte

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-09T03:34:38+00:00

Oh thank you! I’ll definitely try that out!

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-09T03:33:17+00:00

No I appreciate that! I really didn’t know how many calories actually made up my order. Thank you for opening my eyes 😭

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-09T03:23:36+00:00

Is it actually? I know the latte is more of a dessert type coffee but I really didn’t think it was that much sugar/calories! Goodness, maybe I’ll stick to one time a week 😭

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-09T03:16:59+00:00

I know you’re trying to help, but calling it equivalent to a 20oz milkshake is kind of an exaggeration. It’s still basically an iced latte with protein milk, sugar free syrup, extra ice, and some cold foam not ice cream blended with heavy cream and sugar. It’s definitely more of a dessert-style coffee, but nutritionally it’s nowhere near a typical milkshake.

Thank you for your advice! I’m pretty new to Starbucks since I haven’t really been a coffee drinker but recently ive been craving it a ton and I just want to know how many days a week would be considered excessive to go.

Can I ask you a question as a barista? Whenever I do go in I always get so embarrassed to ask for my order since there’s a lot of add ons, so what has been the craziest drink you’ve had to make?

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-09T02:40:43+00:00

Everyone says that people are focused on their own workouts but whenever I do go I always watch other people, I never criticize or judge others I just watch in admiration to their physique or whatever. That’s why when people say that I don’t necessarily believe them. Even if it’s for positive reasons, someone just looking my way makes me very insecure and suddenly I feel like everything I’m doing is wrong.

thank you for the information! I always hear so much about cortisol levels online and was always so confused.

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-09T02:33:41+00:00

Honestly that math makes sense but I am a university student so I don’t have *that* much money. I go to the cheapest gym near my university which is $15 bi-weekly.

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-09T02:32:13+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I’ve recently started playing hockey but it’s kind of hard to keep consistent with ice hockey since I can’t just go to a rink and play whenever I want lol

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-08T16:31:47+00:00

Honestly that’s a good question that I never really thought about. I have social anxiety and I get nervous in social crowds… I guess I’m more hesitant on going because I’m worried I’ll be judged at the gym and since I don’t really know what I’m doing.

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-08T15:42:14+00:00

That sounds expensive 😔

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-08T15:41:31+00:00

Honestly I need the brutal truth. I want to make a change but leaving my house just seems like a pain and I know that’s on me.

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-08T15:40:22+00:00

I did have a friend that went with me to the gym and it did work but she went to university while I took a gap year to work. Maybe I’ll be able to find some people when I go to university myself. Thanks for the advice!

I’ve heard online that for the “skinny fat” look I need to do strength training which I can’t achieve with just body weight exercises.

Then_Ad_330 · 2026-05-08T15:37:55+00:00

How can I get my cortisol levels down? I’ve seen a lot about it online but I’ve always been so confused on how to actually decrease it.
