Sneaky Calories

Have you ever paid attention to how much you eat of something? My friend Christina always says, “You can eat whatever you want as long as it is in moderation.” She is on the right track. Calories have their way of sneaking into your diet. Although it is ultimately our fault, you can’t help but miscount the portions and moderations. For example, the amount of salad dressing you put on your salad. Do you really measure it? Or bread served at an Italian restaurant, do you only limit yourself one? Two? Three? And the big one, Chips and Salsa! Do you notice the sneaky calories you’ve consumed before the big bean burro enchilada style?

My advice: Don’t deny yourself the good stuff, be conscious of how much you eat. Salad dressing??? Have it served in a side dish and dip your salad into the dressing. Bread??? Eat it slow and watch the butter, same with the chips and salsa.

Try to be aware of the amount of "Fun" foods that you put into your body.
