Pay close attention to the specific times or emotions that trigger your craving for the frappuccino. Is it a specific time of day (morning, mid-afternoon)? Is it linked to a particular activity or emotion (stress, boredom, or even celebration)? By identifying the triggers, you can work on replacing the habit with a healthier option.
Stress Relief Substitutes: If stress is a trigger, try swapping your frappuccino for something that can also calm you, like herbal tea, hot water with lemon, or a protein smoothie. Incorporating mindfulness techniques, deep breathing, or short walks can also help manage stress without turning to sugary drinks.
Taste Substitutes: If it’s the flavor you’re after, consider making your own “healthier” version at home. You could blend ice, almond milk, a scoop of vanilla protein powder, and a little stevia or maple syrup for a much lower-sugar, satisfying alternative. You could even try an iced coffee with a splash of vanilla extract and a drizzle of milk—both refreshing and much lower in calories.

Many times, at least for me, it’s not even the treat so much as the idea I’m depriving myself if I don’t drink one since I know I still want one I’m just not getting one for health, money, etc. I recommend replacing it (only some days) with other things you like. A smaller size, a better drink. Then, you can wean yourself off of those too. I also read somewhere when you crave a drink, drink a cup of water on the spot and if you still want it, get it. Sometimes, you’re just dehydrated and don’t truly want one. Hope that helps! It’s helped move me from coffee to tea (or just water) 50% of the week.

You are doing very well by making different ways by which you can stop and curb your behaviour, although, I bet that snack is tasty, it isn’t going to be good for the health. I’m supporting you and your efforts for it, surely you will see the fruit of your works. Good luck
