Most of us want to keep our weight down, and that's not easy when you love to snack (beer nuts are my downfall). With the holidays just around the corner, there will be a lot of high calorie snacking going on. But, you don't have to eat bland, boring foods when you want a snack to cut calories.

Many of us would like to lose weight and sometimes go on extreme diets and take up restrictive eating patterns. A new study suggests that if you serve food from a kitchen counter instead of keeping it on the table, people tend to eat less.

Many of us have decided to get healthy in 2011, and that means some of us are dieting.  I thought you might like to know that what we drink as well as eat can effect our daily calorie intake.
