Every now and then, even I forget about the little things until they start to make themselves known. About two months ago, I spent around 4 days in a row sitting at the computer for much longer than normal since I was creating apparel designs & updating websites.

When I pause for a moment and take an honest assessment of my day-to-day habits, I really only drink 5 things on a regular basis...

That's one of the sneaky ways tons of calories can enter your diet. When I first worked in an office right out of college, I immediately noticed who had cream & sugar with their coffees, and who didn't. Who drank the free...
