Healthier Solutions: What To Order At Starbucks
A large part of creating and maintaining a healthy lifestyle is replacing harmful habits with better ones – infusing good choices into your everyday routine.
For many of us, a trip to work every morning is preceded with a quick stop at Starbucks. You order a vanilla latte or a caramel macchiato in the drive through and sleepily walk through the front doors of your job. Those morning emails are much easier to answer with a bit of caffeine in your system.
Shots of espresso aren’t bad by themselves, but when combined with the sugary syrups and milks high in carbohydrates, they become detrimental to maintaining your weight loss goals.
