    I agree with parts, and disagree with others. Calories in vs calories out is true, but obviously not all calories are created equal because we need veggies, fruit, meat, etc.. I think it would be pretty dumb to think if you eat 1200 calories in junk all day you are gonna be healthy..that's ridiculous. So basically this info is pretty obvious. I just don't agree with the part about cals in vs out is a lie. Go to the general forum here and read the newbie thread's links. They are more informative in my opinion..

    I hear ya. I'm a big girl (on a weight loss mission) and know not to even consider buying those "100 calories" packs EVER. They are a big hoax. Most of these "100 calorie" packs are processed food which isn't good for you any way. My nutritionist said just to make my own low calorie snacks and tha'ts what I do. Yea, it's extra work, but at least I know how many calories are in my own damn snack. LOL Besides, a "100 calorie" pack of gold fish is certainly not as filling AND healthy as a snack of veggies with a dollup of veggie dip.

    bumping is just to add it to your list of threads that you have replied to so that you can go back and read or re-read the thread again later without having to search for it

    It's certainly more work to track everything and not just calories, but the results have made me a believer that simply counting calories is not enough.

    Great article, thanks for sharing!
