Are You Drinking Your Calories?
You could lose weight by simple decreasing your liquid calories. During one of my private nutrition counseling sessions, I learned that one of my clients was drinking 4, 12 oz bottles of soda a day, which was 620 calories total a day. When he switched to diet sodas he took out 620 calories from his diet a day!!! By just making this one change and changing nothing else about his diet, he lost almost 25 pounds in just 4 months!!! So if liquid calories is one of your issues, check out these top 5 tips for reducing liquid calories.
- Use fat free milk instead whole milk.
- Choose zero calorie drinks, water is best!
- Consume alcoholic beverages in moderation, if at all.
- Order your coffee or hot chocolate with skim milk.
