You stop for a cup of coffee in the morning and walk out with a whipped cream covered concoction. Or you're out for lunch and you order a healthful meal ... and a soda. Those innocent looking drinks can pack a pretty hefty calorie wallop if you're not paying attention.

Liquid calories are not new news. But the lines at coffee houses remain long, and sales for soda and energy drinks don't seem to be hurting. So I wonder ... do you count liquid calories?

Do you count liquid calories?


Watching your calorie intake is just one part of taking care of your health. Fitness is important, too. Last week, I wondered if you worked out with a trainer.

Bob Greene gave us some good reasons to work out with a trainer. I asked you if you worked with a trainer; here's what you had to say:

  • 26 percent of you work out with a trainer on a regular basis.
  • 26 percent of you haven't worked with a trainer yet, but you would like to.
  • 27 percent don't feel the need to hire a trainer at all.
  • 21 percent have worked with a trainer in the past, but not regularly.
