Is it ok to drink a glass of hot chocolate everyday?!


Question: Is it ok to drink a glass of hot chocolate everyday?
I eat really healthy. For breakfast I usually have an apple and a banana with a glass of orange juice and some nuts.For lunch I have a whole grain pita with a lean meat and either blueberries or blackberries and a glass of water.for a snack after school I usually will just eat a piece of whole grain bread with cheese and a glass of water.For dinner i will usually have a lean meat with green veggies and some type of whole grain rice or potato and sometimes we just have salad instead of eating starches. I walk home from school everyday and take the stairs. One glass of hot chocolate is 200 calories. Will I gain weight from this i'm 15?

Answers:

You will not gain weight from it. If it is a regular part of your diet, your body is used to it so you technically aren't adding anything extra to your diet. If the hot chocolate is new to your diet, after awhile it might build up, and you might gain a minuscule amount but then your weight will stay the same.



It should not hurt, and if you get a fair amount of exercise, you should be fine. Especially if you make the hot chocolate out of water instead of milk. Your body is consuming it's peak amount of calories in it's teenage years so you should be fine



Yes, a little chocolate is good for you, and you will get tired of it eventually. Plus you are 15, stop worrying so much.....unless your family is extremely overweight.
