November 7th...R U drinking your calories?

 OK, OK I know this Pumpkin Spice Latte looks sooo yummy, or at least the mountain of whipping cream on top does!  But do you know there are 330cals in a non-fat version of this AND 7g of fat AND EVEN WORSE...50g of sugar, that means 12 tsp OF FREAK'N SUGAR PEOPLE...need I say more!  I will give you some perspective, because that's my job.  If you're going to have this, then you have to RUN STAIRS FOR 25mins...So ask yourself is it worth it?  Getting fit and having the body you want is going to take some willpower.  You are going to have to start making some smart choices about what you put in your mouth.  And drinking your calories is not going to help you reach your goal.  Alcohol, pop, special coffees, and juice all need to be banished from your daily routine.  These empty calories will not fill you up, but instead, will increase your hunger because of the amount of sugar...it will actually leaving you wanting MORE!  So below are some healthy snacks that will fill you up and leave your taste buds satisfied!

These are all my favorite go to foods, 1 apple and 1 tbsp of Almond butter is only  155 calories...
Greek yogurt 3/4 cup with 1 cup fresh berries AND 1/2 low-fat granola is only 280cals...
1 w/w Pita, 1/2 cup chicken, 1 tbsp Hummas and loaded w. veggies is only 335cals!

SO THINK BEFORE YOU DRINK!
