Just look at that....
REALLY look at it.
How much is too much?
At what point does our body tell us "enough is enough" and that "now... after 1000 ml it is time to stop."
As per Google the conversion rate of ml to ounces is 1 ml = 0.0338140227 US fluid ounces. With this in mind... the Trenta is 916 ml or 31 (30.97) ounces. For example Weight Watchers recommends that you drink 6 8ounces of water per day. That is 48 ounces. With the Trenta sized serving, that is about 65% of your daily suggested liquid intake for the day. IN ONE SITTING.
Throw calories into the mix and God only knows what you are ingesting.
As an example:

The above are approximations only......
If you have 29 points in a day... you can say goodbye to any real meals.
It is all about balance. A Yin and a Yang approach.
Find what makes you happy and work with it.
Wishing you happy and healthy eating!
