Wow--I never realized

I am about to faint--I never realized HOW MANY CALORIES are in foods that I would never have thought twice about from restaurants...

Awesome blossom has like 2800 calories in it!!! Now, I never had a whole one or anything like that but DAAAAYUM!!!

It really is frightening to realize that sometimes a salad is worse for you than the other stuff!!

Just an FYI - We eat a lot of Wendy's and their website is awesome - you can customize a whole meal and figure out the calories and fat.

Re: Wow--I never realized

I added up what me and my sister like to get at chili's

it came to over 4,000 calories

the salad I like has 850 calories!

I hate it- it took all the fun out of going out to eat- now I am scared

and not to mention that last week I didn't eat out or order in bad take out food- I lost 2 lbs

the hidden calories have been killing me!

I have been in complete denial all these years --- the aussie cheese fries from outback weigh in at a whopping 2800 calories for the plate. I know that there have been times DH & I ate almost the whole thing Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon That's more calories then you should have in a whole day Chat Icon Then we had dinner.

Its really scary when you look up some of your favorite foods esp at restuarants..I used to go to Chilis like 2x/week. Most meals will easily add up to about 3 -4k calories! Chat Icon
I honestly dont even enjoy going out to eat anymore and have cut down alot because I force myself to only look at the healthy menu and skip dessert :(

yahh i used to think I was doing myself a favor by getting the low fat blueberry or low fat bran muffins from D&D till I looked up the calories on their site. Its almost the same amt of calories as the regular ones!! Low fat doesnt always mean Low CaloriesChat Icon
