Hidden Calories Continued

Although my new pedometer is bulky and not comfy to wear at all, it does track calories burned too. I really like that feature and will use this one while I continue on the look out for a smaller one. ;)

Today I found out something that totally shocked me!... Yesterday I wrote about hidden Calories and how I dropped my BF sandwich from 270 cals to 195 cals. I also noticed that coffee could be a culprit of hidden cals... WELLLLLL I just found out that a large double double coffee is 230 cals! Can you believe that! The last 2 weeks I increased my Cal intake by eating 500 cals for BF!!!! So this week I started drinking a large regular which is 115 cals, now BF is a total of 310 cals instead of that dreadful 500! (I'm thinking I can definitely do with a medium coffee which is 75 cals so bringing it down to 270)

I'm already down 1 lbs and hopefully I will soon be back to where I was in weight and work on losing from there!

Learning lesson: Never underestimate the Cals! They are EVERYWHERE! ahahha!
