One of the easiest mistakes to make when practicing healthy eating is forgetting that what you drink is just as important. Back when I was heavier, I never gave what I drank any thought. I probably consumed an extra 1,000 calories a day (not to mention extra sugar) just because I neglected the caloric price of what I was drinking. And now, its hard for me to watch other people drink bottles of pop (soda for you now western PA people) knowing that they're consuming 300-400 calories and over 50 grams of sugar.
Ideally, most of your daily calories should be coming from food, not drinks, with the exception of milk. Drinks are not going to fill you up. They are basically empty calories.
