think before you drink

And I'm not talking about alcohol.  As I browsed the Today Show website this morning, I was intrigued by the following title:  "Holiday Drinks Can Pack Up to 700 Calories."   I had to check that one out. :)

The author of "Eat This Not That" was giving healthier options to our favorite holiday drinks.  http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/33491735/vp/40528260#40528260 It's amazing to see how many calories are packed into a cup of spiced up coffee.  It really makes you think about what you're ordering and consuming--on top of the doughnut, Christmas cookie, and sliver of pie.

The holiday's can be a tough environment with all the sugary delicacies being given out, but there is victory in moderation and education! Know what you're consuming and how much of it you're having...it will help a whole lot. :)
