Just sitting here watching the new's and an Arby's commercial comes on and in an attempt to find words that rhyme with "Good Mood Food" they throw in a line "We all look the same the Nood" LOL That is my take on it. I have started google'ing everything I eat. When you limit your calories you can't take chances right?! So one night Den asks me to get him a Pizza on my way home, yea he is clueless. Not wanting to eat Pizza I thought I would get my own take out. I opt for Arby's. While waiting in the Drive thru I Google their menu and to my shock I find that they are one of the worst!! I thought I'd have a Turkey Wrap NO!! 700 Calories. Those Market Fresh Sandwiches are HORRIBLE!!! I ended up with 3 chicken strips fried at 100 calories each and I ate 1 1/2 not the best meal. What was even more awful is I bought Den 2 of their Chocolate Turnovers well 1 didn't make it home. I looked up the calories of that bad boy after I ate it and it was a whopping 510 calories. YUM. I went running the next morning and burned 600 calories to make up for it. I haven't done that again. Isn't it funny how something so heavenly good can be so loaded with calories and you have to send your self to the brink of death to burn those calories. I look at chocolate very differently now.
I have found some very tasty substitutions. Lays Light Chips have 75 Calories per serving and they taste just like Classic Lays Chips. These are not Baked they are made with Olean, no you wont be running for the bathroom after eating them, they are 100% Fat Free. I eat them a few times a week with lunch and I love them. Nice treat. I just discovered Pillsbury is now making Sugar Free Cake mix in Yellow and Devils Food and Frosting in Chocolate and Vanilla. I bought the Yellow Cake with Chocolate Frosting but haven't made it yet. I will let you know how it comes out. I have made my favorite recipes with healthy ingredients. Last week I made pancakes with Wheat Flour and Sugar free syrup, even Den liked them and at 126 calories per serving I did too.
So try and make little changes they will add up
