Grazing on Weight Gain

MOOVE on over, Weight Gain!

We've all done it - grazed on a variety of goodies throughout the day, just a smidge here and a tinch there.  And by the end of the day, we may feel as if we have done quite well, calorie-consumption-wise - but did we?

It's a case of 'what we don't know can hurt our diet'.

Let's take a look at Dieter Fabio to see how he mows down his grazing calories....

Approximate Time

Food Grazed Upon

Calorie Mowdown

10 am

1/2 donut

90 calories

11 am

Pack of peanut butter cookies with a regular soda

400 calories

1 pm

2 slices of leftover pizza

700 calories

2 pm

1/2 donut (why waste it?)

90 calories

4 pm

Bowl of ice cream (2 cups)

880 calories

5 pm

1/2 pack of beef jerky

200 calories

6 pm

bowl of cereal (3 cups)

350 calories

8 pm

1/2 bag of buttered popcorn with two regular sodas

550 calories

10 pm

2 beers

250 calories

                             TOTAL CALORIES    3,510 calories

Fabio looked down at his swollen belly just before bedtime and blamed the beers, but what really sucked Diet Wind was the pizza and ice cream.  By the time he'd mown his way throughout the day, he had almost doubled his recommended daily calorie intake.  No wonder his tummy was all blown out!

Fabio's disastrous graze-day is a good example of why it pays to enjoy a sit-down meal AND when we can't enjoy a sit-down meal, why we should take time to take stock of what we are grazing on.
