Coffee has and always will hold a special place in my heart. Sadly the Toffee Nut Latte of Starbucks also holds a place in keeping me plump for winter. It was something that I use to always crave and am not going to lie, dream about every now and then.
Starbucks however is not the meaning of life. Yes I said it. I know that some people may find this hard to believe and being a gold member myself (for the next two years) its quite hard to admit. Thing is though, I do love a Venti Toffee Nut Latte with Christmas Blend and whipped cream but is it worth 400cals? To burn that off you would have to play doubles tennis for an hour and standing at the side running away from the ball doesn't count.
When I decided that I wanted to improve my healthy lifestyle these fancy lattees were one of the first things I kicked. Now I stick to Americanos with a little bit or no milk. I can still go out and enjoy a coffee with my friends but I don't feel like a chubby cherub afterword. The other week me and my best friend hit the gym instead of grabbing a fatty coffee! Never in million years would I have believed we would be gym fairies but there is always time for change.
Todays "Things I love Thursday" is coffee and it shows being fit doesn't always mean loosing the things you love! Hope you enjoyed my Christmas themed things and I'll see
you next Thursday!
