Drink Up!

You will never find me without a water bottle in hand. I will not leave home without it, and neither should you. As the temps outside are heating up, it’s important to remember to stay hydrated and keep the liquids flowing. However, not all beverages are created equally.

“One of the biggest culprits derailing your progress in your diet is actually not the food you are consuming. It is actually what you are drinking!

Now, let me start off by saying I’m not a calorie counter, and I’m not really a proponent of counting calories. However, I do believe in having an awareness of the calories you are consuming.

Most people do not consider, or even realize, all of the ways calories creep into their dietary habits. Calories from drinks are easily dismissed. Do you put cream in your coffee? Do you grab a green juice because you didn’t get in all of your daily veggies? How about that after dinner drink? Now, I’m not suggesting you shouldn’t do any of these things. It’s totally okay, BUT you need to be aware that these things matter, and they affect you, your health, and wellbeing.”

Happy Friday! Cheers to the weekend and to you! I’ll drink to that.
