    restaurant food in general! it seems like they sit around a table in suits and figure out how to make the calorie count as high as physically possible. like, 1000 calories for a salad!?!? Come on!

    I didn't realize that by eyeballing my cream(half & half) in my coffee I was actually getting 3 servings (120 cals) per cup of coffee not one serving (40 cals) Now I always measure!

    Last time I've been to Mc Donald's I picked a sandwich that really didn't look that bad. It was almost 800 kcals :noway:

    A Costco food court cheese pizza slice...700 calories!!! Actually seems like all their food court items were horrendous. I also had that moment with Stacy's simply naked pita chips. About 10 chips are 130 calories!!! Def not worth my calories.. I was pleasantly surprised with Dannon's light and fit Greek yogurt. Pretty filling and only 80 calories. It's a wonderful snack but I wish it didn't taste as artificially sweetened. I guess you can't have everything. :cry:

    I'm still trying to find a protein bar that isn't super high in sugar and tastes decent. Any suggestions??

    lol no kidding huh? I sampled an artichoke dip that was divine the other day and ended up buying it (it's huge) now I don't want it in my fridge tempting me so I am going to take it to work and pawn it off on the boys :bigsmile:

    Ever since I was six I read every nutrition label, so I can't say I'm surprised.

    I tried those yogurts, couldn't get past the artificial aftertaste. I'll stick to the 100+ calories stuff.
