7.Don’t Drink Your Calories
Coffee and tea are great, low-cal drink choices on their own. But add a bit of cream and 2 teaspoons of sugar and you’re up to about 60 calories per cup. At 3 cups a day, that’s more than some kinds of soda. And that heavenly 16-ounce Frappuccino that’s calling your name? It could have 400 calories or more.
8.Snack Lighter
You’ll save calories and add fiber and protein if you scoop up healthy spreads like hummus with celery, carrots, or sliced peppers instead of crackers or pita. Replace potato chips or cheese puffs with a lighter choice like air-popped popcorn. Pro tip: Put one serving of your snack into a bowl or on a plate. It’s easy to lose track of how much you’re munching when you eat directly out of the bag or box.
