Diet Excuses
------------
1. But the doughnut was calling my name.
2. I felt left out because they were eating.
3. But it was my birthday, so I had to eat the whole cake.
4. The kids over seas are starving, so naturally I have to
clean my plate.
5. I had to get the bitter taste out of my mouth from
eating the so-called dish, so I had a ice cream.
6. If you eat something and no one sees you eat it, it has
no calories.
7. If you drink a diet soda with a candy bar, the calories
in the candy bar are canceled out by the diet soda.
8. When you eat with someone else, calories don't count if
you don't eat more than they do.
9. Food used for medicinal purposes NEVER count, such as
hot chocolate, brandy, toast and Sara Lee Cheesecake.
10. If you fatten up everyone else around you, then you
look thinner.
11. Movie related foods (Milk Duds, Buttered Popcorn,
Junior Mints, Red Hots, Tootsie Rolls, etc.) do not
have additional calories because they are part of the
entertainment package and not part of one's personal
fuel.
12. Cookie pieces contain no fat-- the process of breaking
causes fat leakage. Exception: Cookies sold by TEXAS
D'LITES distributors. Great "Meal Replacement" with
little or no FAT content, low in calories, lots of
fiber, protein, and other nutritional ingredients.
13. Things licked off knives and spoons have no calories if
you are in the process of preparing something. Examples
are peanut butter on a knife making a sandwich and ice
cream on a spoon making a sundae.
14. Foods that have the same color have the same number of
calories. Examples are: spinach and pistachio ice
cream; mushrooms and white chocolate. NOTE: Chocolate
is a universal color and may be substituted for any
other food color.
15. Foods that are frozen have no calories because calories
are units of heat. Examples are ice cream, frozen pies,
and Popsicles. |
