Starbucks is one of my favorite places to write. And I am a writer as well as a fitness professional and in the latter role I tend to cringe and wonder what people are thinking.
Coming into a coffee shop and ordering a Latte with Splenda and an apple fritter or cheese danish makes no sense. And I see this all the time. When I worked in New Orleans I constantly would see women come in from the health club after an intense exercise session and order a skinny Frappuccino and a cheese danish!! The next morning they would come back to the health club complaining that they haven't lost a pound!!!
Don't think because you take an exercise class or do some cardio that you can eat anything you want. It doesn't work that way.
Have that Latte with Splenda but pair it with a protein drink, egg white omelet, yogurt; something with protein to fuel your body. Stay away from the sugar; avoid fried and fat filled treats!
If you want to see a difference in your body and lose those extra pounds, think before you order!
Read through the nutritional information, become an informed consumer and a healthier you!
