I knew this but never realized it!!!

  • I have been doing my 8MM every morning and was having a problem with loosing weight, I started to do Tae-Bo and I love it.. I taught I was eating healthy and than ......

    Yesturday I went to the grocery store to get some salad for today's
    lunch, I took 2 salad and than as I was checking for dressing I
    notice that the dressing for ceasar said 70 calories for 15 ml and the
    package was 45 ml and it click , OMG, the salad dressing is 210
    calories and here I am eating ceasar salad every night and a big salad
    on top of that , thinking it is not that bad it is only salad, I guess
    I was fooling myself and than lately I have added chicken everynight
    to my salad, so it is fair to say that I was probably eating an extra
    400 calories every night, and maybe more,, I knew that ceasar salad
    dressing was alot of calories but it just didn't registered in my
    mind, but guess what it did last night..


    so this week I will be working of re-arranging this,
    Can't believe how stupid I was for this not to click in.. but now I know...
  • and that was on top of my supper. so my supper was probably around 850calories...
  • WOW... Eye-opener isn't it?

    Try putting your dressing in a little bowl, and dipping your fork in there before each bite... greatly reduces the amount of dressing you use without sacrificing taste! Just a suggestion - an old WW trick.
  • Yes, dressings can be soooo fattening! It sucks! Good thing you noticed! Cesar salad is an extremely fattening dish. Especially out in a restaurant it can be upwards of 800 cals!!!
  • I always do the salad dressing trick Daisy mentioned. I never put it on my salad any more. At least Caesar dressing is low carb and has less sugar than the rest do.
