The Next Step
Your Weight Management Know How Directly Influences Your Waist Line...
Take this quick quiz and check your skills:
- Eating 7 walnut halves and drinking a glass of water 30 minutes before a meal, will curb your appetite and help you to eat less.
True False
- Which has more calories:
a. 7 pretzel twists
b. 4 Hershey Kisses
c. 1/3 cup Chex Mix
- How many 6 inch Subway® roast beef subs (without mayo, oil or cheese) would equal the calories in one Chipotle® vegetarian burrito with rice, beans, guacamole and corn salsa?
a. One
b. Three
c. Three plus a bag of Lays baked chips
d. Five
The Answers:
- True. Eating a food with some fiber and fat before a meal can start the digestive process going. So when you get to your meal you feel full sooner. The key: portion control of the food you eat before the meal.
- All of these foods contain 100 calories. Watch snacks closely, or they can add up quickly!
- The answer is C! Not that you would eat 3 subs and chips for lunch. But some people could eat one burrito packed with healthy sounding food and never suspect it packs 990 calories!
