Have you sipped a Starbuck's Frappuccino, mocha, or latte lately? "Grinding" the numbers, you'll see that those frothy coffee drinks can pack a whopping 500 calories and 27 grams of fat each! That's a Venti-sized serving of calories, but if you think about the basic ingredients - whipped cream, whole fat milk, and sugary syrups - it's clear where they come from. Not to mention adding a piece of coffee cake, biscotti, or a madeleine cookie! Best-case scenario: ditch the frothy coffee drinks and opt for black coffee or tea. If that's a no-can-do for you, than choose a drink with nonfat milk and no whipped cream. This simple act can save you up to 400 calories!

Yep, I thought about her also Laurie!!!! Great minds think alike!!!

i love a triple NF cappo, not many calories in that, whew....

Wow- the calories and fats on those drinks are just amazing. No wonder so many of us have weight issues! Good thing I like non-fat decaf lattes. I'll stick to those.

I never get those really fatty drinks!!! I only get a small or sometimes medium non-fat latte. Never with whipcream!!! The calories are only about 150 max!
