Great DETERMINED TO SUCCEED tip: May times we don’t think of how many calories we DRINK! Well, we should. From the flavored coffees we drink in the morning to the alcoholic beverages we enjoy when going out, we consume a lot of calories that go uncounted in our daily lives. Think the next time you drink!
