Having lost 17 kilos so far this year (oral thrush) i thought i'd keep up the good work so have been checking out calories and stuff and it's quite surprising sometimes.
I had a veggie cheese burger yesterday and the cheese, burger, lettuce, onoin and burger relsih was LESS than the bun !
There's more calories in 3 Quorn nuggets than one of Linda's farmhouse pies.
Peas have twice the calories of green beans, though peas have a fair ammount of sugar i think.

most bread is really high in calories as its full of carbohydrates. i don't eat bread often for this reason if i do, i have slices from those baby half loaves you can buy and i always make sure i buy wholemeal (good carbs!). the slices have about 60 calories in instead of a whopping 100-120!!!
it does shock me how many calories are in certain fruits/veggies but i just remind myself that they are good calories 100 calories coming from some sugar filled fruit/veg is much better than 100 calories coming from some sweets.
i am guilty for looking at nutritional content labels alot and it really does shock me how many calories are in certain foods. at the same time though, sometimes it shocks me how little calories are in other foods. like, today, i had a dairylea light triangle and it shocked me that despite being cheesy, it only had 27 calories in it! it made my day, haha
