Have you ever ordered a skinny latte and wondered how many calories is in it, or whether it's even worth the roll of the eyes from the barista? Feel silly when you add 2 sugars into a skinny cappuccino?
Check out this calorie comparison to see how coffee stacks up.
The first thing I noticed about this is that sugar, in the grand scheme of things is not as bad as I thought. Milk is what makes up most of the calories, and a full cream latte has more calories than a skinny latte with 2 sugars.
If you're not aware of how calories work just yet, I'll put it into perspective for you. The average person who is trying to lose weight should be eating around 1200-1500 calories a day... two full cream coffees take up over a 3rd of your recommended intake.
I know I'd rather save my calories for food!
Let me know what you think and if this will change how you have your coffee from now on.
