Today marks Summer Solstice – the longest day of the year.
It means we are closest to the sun and the weather should be warmer.
Although living in the north its often cloudy, so we don’t notice.
But watching the weather report this morning we have some warm air heading our way.
Combining the warm air & long light days where we may go out more and stay out till late….
… we have a new problem.
Drinking our calories.
It’s one of our number one rules for anyone body trying to lose body fat.
Don’t drink your calories!
With it becoming warmer we want a refreshing cool drink, but look at the calorie content of some of these popular summer drinks;
- Chocolate Iced Frappuccino – 450kcal
- Pina Colada – 368kcal
- Long Island Iced Tea – 520kcal
More calories than an average meal!
Never the less we also want you to have a good time so here are some similar alternatives that are bit more exciting that water!
- Coconut Water – 40kcal
- Vodka soda lime – 65kcal
- Rum & Diet Coke – 96kcal
Be smarter with your drinks and investigate how many calories are in your favourite summer tipple.
Have fun this summer without missing out.
