If you’re like many women, you drink a whopping 860 calories a day. And if you dropped just one of those calorie-packed beverages, you could lose 5 or 10 pounds in a year. That’s why scientists have created daily beverage guidelines, which say no more than 10 percent of your daily calories should come from beverages—half of what’s typical for adults. So are you craving a caramel frappuccino? That’s about all the calories you should get from beverages and then some, coming in at about 700. So if you splurge on that craving you’ll have to drink only water the rest of the day, and the next day, too.
Here’s a fun event to mark on your calendar. St. John’s Workpartners will be hosting Joplin Chamber’s Business After Hours tomorrow night from 5:30 –7. Stop by and see our facility located on East 32nd street. There will be free food and giveaway items. No strings attached, just come out and make some business connections.
