    Just noticed today b/c I was craving one....small cookie dough blizzard from Dairy Queen...690 calories!!!! OUCH! Will be avoiding those this summer :)

    They make a snack size mini blizzard that is just the perfect size. You're still going to get quite a bit of calories, but it's not going to be quite the hit that a small blizzard is.

    Starbucks Venti Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha, full-fat milk with whipped cream - 700 calories! For a drink!
    PEANUT BUTTER.... crazy amount of calories whenever you could have PB2: the best thing ever invented. AND it's deliiiiiiiiiicious
    Some things are worth the calories! 2 Tbsp of natural PB is less than 200 calories, and the fat in PB is healthy fat - if you limit your portions, all-natural (no salt/sugar/oil added) PB can be a regular part of a perfectly healthy diet. High Calorie / High Fat does not always equal bad.

    Peanut Butter... I agree with you, I totally do. It CAN be a part of a healthy diet. But I find that PB is one of those things where the serving size just feels too small to me to make it worth it. I can eat a tablespoon of PB and it's healthy... but I never want to eat only a tablespoon. I grew up with PB& banana sandwiches with like 8 tbsp on them, and 1 or 2 feels pitiful. I feel the same way about olive oil on my salad-- I want like 3 or 4 tbsp on there to really coat it! Grin.
    All things in moderation, I know but peanut butter is a MAJOR trigger food for me. I can eat a whole jar and not even realize it. I don't buy it unless my bf or son requests it.

    Some of the things that I use to get thinking I was making a healthier choice, like the fish sandwich at Wendy's or something. Your better off to get a small burger or something. And also, some of these restaurant salads, when they have crispy chicken or something on them. Ouch. And I think back to all the crap I use to eat.

    Olive Oil, 1 Tablespoon=120, Ouch.

    Olive oil sure punched me in the gut last night when I roasted fresh asparagus in it and I'll be ...it was 300 calories for 10 spears. Never doing that again.

    Oh yes I was horrified when I realised that one, too.
    Also the sauces. I used to (well I still do but at least now I'm aware of it!) put ranch AND southwest on my footlong... 400-odd cal just in sauces...

    Milk Duds. I ate the little tiny Halloween size. Which has 3 or 4 milk duds in it. Guess how many calories...wait for it, wait for it...170 calories. For 3 milk duds. That's more calories than half of a giant snickers bar! Try to do the right thing by having a tiny bite size thing, and bam! They fool you. Next time, I'm having a junk food craving...I'll just have half of a snickers bar.

    Chili's Classic Turkey Sandwich = 1340 calories and 63 grams of fat. This is a turkey sandwich people! I didn't check first, but ordered thinking it was more healthy than anything else on the menu. When I went home and looked it up, I was so mad I haven't been back.
