I work at a bakery, we always look at the calories in new stuff. We are still shocked by honey buns, which are 600 calories.
OMG losing weight and working in a bakery? I wouldn't succeed, I am telling you!0 -

Pretty much anything on the 99 Restaurant menu!! We were on the road today and were out much longer than expected, so we stopped there for lunch! Thank God for my smart phone...I looked up calories before ordering and went with least damage...which cost 520 calories...most of the other choices I would have picked were over 1000 and 1300 calories!! An entire day's food in one sitting...no thanks! (even though preMFP I wouldn't have thought twice about it!)0

Seeing a whole lot of people shocked about 1000 calorie meals and such, or that they are eating a slice of pie that has 800 calories and it is half of their daily intake. You should never be shocked at the calorie count of anything: chips are either tortilla or potato . . . both dense high calorie foods. Cake is cake, no matter how you slice it (haha slice), muffins are cake marketed as a breakfast food, all they are is oversized cupcakes. If you watn a low calorie dinner, here's a great one: Tyson's frozen chicken tenderloins (1 serving), 1 serving of Trader Joe's ready to cook brown rice, and some Del Monte fresh whole potatoes (they're in a can). Eat 1 serving of all those things i guarantee you'll be full and you will only have had about 3-400 calories. Also, the more protein you eat, the more full you'll feel, and longer.0

We used to go through at least 2 gallons a week between me and hubby... Since MFP we haven't went through two or three gallons in almost 18 months!!!

Orange Juice. Like liquid candy. Haven't drank it in a year...
I quit drinking it also, was shocked at how many calories were in a cup
My uncle turned me on to the Trop 50 juice. If you have a jones for some OJ, this one won't kill you at least!
Whoever came up with the Trop 50 was a genius... its only 50% juice. Buggers took regular OJ, added water, and called it a brand new product with 50% less calories and sugar! If you are going to drink OJ, just take the regular stuff and mix it with water yourself!0 -
I was shocked to find out how much sugar there is in milk! & then the cereal &the Mocha I had after my gym workout.
Most of all those cheeky few choccies I used to have between meals, can add upto to half my days calories!! :-(
I now know where I was going wrong all these years. MFP has been a real eye opener :-)0 -
Ditto...they've slowly gotten enormous and it doesn't take a whole lot of looking to find a 700 (or more!) calorie muffin.
And Pop-Tarts. Just ONE is 220 cals (and who doesn't eat both in the wrapper?)
YES! Poptarts was the worst, it's almost a feat how they've managed to get so many calories into one tiny pastry... that was the end of poptarts for me though0 -
