Over Eating on the Holidays
Thanksgiving Dinner Calories.
Over eating on the holidays, we all do it! A holiday dinner usually consists of more calories then your daily consumption should be, especially if you go back for seconds!:) Approximate Calories per day for Adults to consume who exercise moderately: Men 2800 Woman 2000 If your goal is to lose weight by burning off excess body fat, aim to eat 500 fewer calories per day than your daily caloric needs, and maintain or increase your exercise activity.
Do not go below 1200 calories per day unless you are on a medically supervised weight loss program or after consultation with your doctor.
Two mixed drinks= 500 calories Half a cup of mixed nuts = 440 c Three cups salad with One tablespoon ranch dressing = 175 c Six ounces of white and dark turkey = 340 c Half a cup of stuffing = 180 c Half a cup of cranberry sauce = 190 c Half a cup of mashed potatoes = 150 c Half a cup of gravy = 150 c A dinner roll with pat of butter = 155 c A slice of pumpkin pie = 180 c Half a cup of ice cream = 145 c ...
that comes to 2605 calories.
To burn those calories you will need to walk 26.
05 miles, 42.
01 kilometers, or 52100 steps, assuming you cover one mile in 2,000 steps.
Remember everything in moderation, and eat slowly so your brain has time to signal to you when you are full so that you don't over eat.
:) Enjoy!
