    I used to have serious anxiety about this kinda of stuff.. I found myself wondering how many calories were seeping into my head from my shampoo... True story. Once I started eating again, I don't get these ridiculous illogical thoughts.

    Why on earth are you wearing sunscreen? Everyone knows that when you get a sun burn you're burning calories, duh. That's why it's called a burn!!

    If you're still not losing you might want to try increasing the SPF. And be sure to eat back your sunscreen calories. Counter-intuitive--I know.

    I would quick-add at least 350 to be safe.

    I wish that was true, especially for those of us that live in the South (so much sun)!!!

    This is a joke right?!!! So, do I also have to measure out the body butter that I put on after my bath each night? And my face-creams? Oh. and maybe I should stop brushing my teeth with toothpaste?!!!

    Seriously though, I wouldn't worry too much about this. Much healthier to use the suncream than worrying about the calories! Oh, just a thought, maybe that's why postage stamps became self-sticky in order that we didn't put on weight from licking them as we had to previously!

    OK, I actually checked to see if toothpaste is in the database. The answer is....

    Hahaha, he's joking! :P But I do know of MANY people who go as far as cutting out toothpaste entirely from the fear of hidden calories.

    I'm just shocked that someone would actually add calories on something you apply to your skin O.o

    How does SUNSCREEN have calories? It's absorbed by skin cells, not you're stomach lining!

    Pfft, for all I know, it could be possible. I hear kids are shoving alcohol soaked tampons up their a**es and getting drunk. Who knew?
