I'm really skinny and I was wondering if drinking a Frappuccino from Starbucks every now and then would make me fat. I always choose the smallest size, but I do drink them with whipped cream. Will I get fat?

If you're reslly skinny and stick to a well balancd diet drinking a Starbucks frappuccino every now and then will not make you fat!!
The key to being healthy (not necessarily skinny) is to njoy unhealthy things once in a while and have a balanced diet: five fruit or vegetables a day, lots of water, and plenty of exercise. Do these things and you can enjoy your frappuccino without getting 'fat.'

No no, you're getting it backwards. Having been a fat chick after having my babies, it is precisely BECAUSE you love Frappuccinos from Starbucks that you increase in size, it's not that fat people just love buying Frappucinos just because they're fat. Don't underestimate the physical craving for fat and sweets in us hormonally charged women. We know what we should be getting, but instead we get the thing that makes us feel all warm and yummy inside. Sugar is totally a drug. It's very hard work to turn down that drug, and opt for something healthier. Once you start though, it gets easier.

In moderation you won't. Most kind of plain (coffee, mocha, caramel, caffe vanilla) tall sized Frappuccinos have under 200 calories if you order them without whipped cream. The Frappuccino Light versions have even less. If you go to http://www.starbucks.com you can also look up nutritional information.

Probably not. You would only get fat if you had them all the time, just like anything else. (I work at a starbucks, you should see some of the people that come in 2 or 3 times per day)

Depending on your metablolism, you will prob not see any weight gain. However, more than a couple a week and your likely to add on the pounds.

Although you may not get fat, they are def not good for you! After all they taste good.

Only if you drink it everyday but its okay once in awhile.
A grande mocha frap from Starbucks actually contains about 800 calories, so just think about it.
Its never good to have too much of anything.

If you only do it "every now and then", you shouldn't have a problem. The trick to not getting fat is a simply equation: calories in < calories out.
You should not take in more calories than you burn.

If you drink 1-5 a day, every day, you probably will get fat. If you have one once a month you should be fine, as long as you have healthy eating and exercising habits.

well they have a lot of calories in them but i don't think that alone will cause you to go from "really skinny" to fat

No, but they arent very healthy for you, but if you're really skinny, you should gain some weight...
