Eat your calories don’t drink them. Wine, beer and
fruit drinks such as orange juice contain lots of calories due to their
high sugar content. Aim to drink 8 glasses of water each day to enable
your body to function properly and as an easy way of saving calories. They are also an excellent source of vitamins and minerals. Try and eat at least 5 servings each day.
