Not a problem because none of these are on my frequent list anyway.  If I do have a flavored coffee, I order non-fat, sugar-free (called "skinny") so the fat and calories are reduced significantly. That is a good list, though, because a lot of people trying to avoid sodas will turn to these thinking they are good alternatives. 4951

I'm so glad I love water!!  It's my favorite!  I do however, enjoy a nice cold coke every so often.  Any kind of coffee to me is overrated! LOL! 4951

@KTownTexican: Kids love juice. Why? Because kids like sugar. Many juices are absolutely no better than soda, but they aren't as closely scrutinized (perhaps because some associate juice with fruit). A 12-ounce serving of apple juice, a lunch box staple, contains 180 calories, 43.5 grams of carbohydrates and 42 grams of sugar—nearly as much sugar as you'd get from five Fudgsicles. A 12-ounce serving of fruit punch (marketed as containing "100% natural flavors") packs 135 calories, 37.5 grams of carbohydrates and 37.5 grams of sugar.Starting your day with orange juice does deliver a lot of vitamin C, but a 12-ounce serving will set you back 165 calories, 39 grams of carbohydrates and 33 grams of sugar. Lemonade is also stuffed with sugar and has calories similar to soda. You're far better off drinking a glass of water and eating an actuaAl piece of fruit.
