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....

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.
