...apart from the obvious three:

1. Free samples in the supermarket
2. One sweet from your kid's bag
3. French fries from someone else's plate.

    4. The bite off your daughters cheese on toast (with Lea and Perrins...drool) supper last night, just to make sure it was cooked properly.

    I've heard that broken cookies have none - the calories fall out when it breaks.

    Of course, you are right, anything you try when you are cooking is essential and definitely does not count (including the chocolate butter icing left in the bowl)

    And of course if someone cuts a cake or loaf of bread and does leave it straight ... well tidying it up is a necessity and does not count.

    lol...you know someone might just believe this!


    Anything eaten standing up...0 calories, seems to be a commonly held belief among busy mums cooking multiple meals for kids and hubby but never actually sitting down to eat herself.(i'm sure most of us know someone who has said "Can't understand my weight, I never eat" but you know the reason)

    Anything you eat whilst drunk - you cannot remember the calories, therefore they MUST be free!!!

    frazzles and hoola hoops stolen from the children. I only eat the broken ones so the calories have fallen out.

    If you only eat half the cake, it's only half the calories....therefore you can have twice as much!

    Whatever's left on the plate or in the bowl that won't fit in the storage container when cleaning up after dinner. Proven, scientific fact.

    The thing is, I don't log these things, who does? But I also don't log the 4 times a day I walk the 500m school run, or chasing after the children, or running up and down stairs all day doing the housework. So fair's fair.
