Some Scary Facts about those little treats!

Hey guys,
well just thought id scare you's with a few things i found out!! Now if your anything like me (unfortunately) you will maybe have fallen off the wagon a few times but let me tell you this...
did u know that in a simple galaxy bar of chocolate theres 254 kcals (thats about half of your kcal intake if your on ss)
and in a pot noodle theres over 500kcal (scary eh? - i dnt actually know how i ate them now i know that...but i know where that stone came from when i first started uni!!lol)
anyone else have ne scary facts that will put us off our snack food or at least think twice about it!!??!!

Yup! I love coffee, particularly the sort of speciality coffees you get in Starbucks and Costa. So this info was a big shocker to me the first time I saw it:

Starbucks Calories - Fast Food Nutrient Details!

Examples:
Tall Chai Latte (Tall is the smallest size, folks) = 222 calories
Venti (Large) Cocoa with low fat milk = 521 calories

Hi ya,

And thats just the calories, dread to think what other C***P is in them . Once you do this diet you really do look out more before it goes into your mouth.

Baileys yummm yummm

Hi
I realised that a glass of baileys had nearly 400 calories My fav drink and i would drink a whole bottle in a day terrible when i think about it now.

Despite what we may think about Butter etc., have a look next time you are in your local Supermarket at the amount of calories in a Lurpak light Spreadable and a supposedly healthier Benecol Spread you will be suprised.

Haribo are my downfall, daren't have them in the house but there are approx. 30 calories in EACH sweet. Ugh!!!

And thats only if u don't have the extras - naan bread, onion bahjis etc!
I once read that 1/2 of a plain naan bread was 250 calories and 1 'typical' onion bahji was 100cals!
I'm soo glad I leave the curries well alone these days! lol
It's true what they say, if u dont have something for a long time u dont crave it anymore.

Much love, chelle xx
