NUmbers Part II

Things to ponder:
a chocolate chip cookie at Starbucks has 540 calories. McDonald's Quarter pounder with cheese has 530
The number of teaspoons of sugar in a 20 ounce reggie soda: 13.5
The number of teaspoons of sugar in 50 jellybeans: 13.5
250 calories is the total in a 20 oz reggie soda
A serving size for one breakfast bowl of Special K is 3/4 cup and 150 calories. Most people double the serving size without realizing what an actual 3/4 of a cup looks like, volume-wise, so in truth their cereal is costing them 300 calories, not 150. And that's without the milk added.
Most weight loss programs suggest a serving size of meat or chicken to be between 3 and 5 ozs.
Most steaks in restaurants average 12-18, 4-6 times the serving size.
Grilled fish is preferable over baked because most restaurants baked their fish in oodles of melted butter. Real butter, not "I cant' beleive it's not!"
A baked potatoe with sour cream on the side averages 120-160 calories. The same potatoe with butter melted over it averages 300.
One slice of bacon has 70 calories. When was the last time you ate 1 SLICE of bacon?
Does anybody wonder why this country is fat?
