The first step to healthy weight loss is educating yourself in the calorie counts of various foods .
I’m gonna start with a few basic calorie counts of certain foods that are consumed daily and others can add to the list.
Breads :
1 medium chappati…119
1 slice of white bread…60
1 paratha (no filling )…280
100gm Naan bread…336
Milk products :*****
1 cup skimmed milk…45
240ml full cream milk…150
100gms butter…750
100gms cream…210
100 gms Ghee…910
Misc.
1 tbsp sugar…48
1 tsp honey…90
Desi Foods :
1 Vegetable Pakora ( 1 oz.) …33
1 Aloo Samosa…156
1 Falafel ( 2 1/4 " diameter)…57
100gms Chicken Curry…132
100gm Chicken Korma…166
100gm Chicken Tikka…155
300gm Chicken Biryani…410
100 gm Chicken Kabab…150
These are rough estimates as various sites quote different counts however its to give you an idea of the basic calorie range so you can do a quick mental count when eating .
So part of the Challenge is to make people aware of the calories they are consuming and many times we under-estimate the calorie counts especially since most of our traditional foods and snacks are fried.
damm.. khudaa ne har cheese banaaei hai khaney k liye .. so mazzey se khaao ..if not then .. ^^ what X X said.. you may aswel stop eating ..and move to a third world country where you aint gonna find no calories etc ..aur aakhir pe bhooka marr jaeyy .. and when some one comes at your funeral …whts the cause of death ..aah bas he/she didnt eat their calories
ps. no 0ffence to anyone but this is just my observation ..and i have personally seen and know three ppl who hav actually starved themselves …cos they were worried about all the above and ended up in hospital .. and one who i know had to get steel rods to supoort his legs put in cos all the bones of his legs just shattered cos of no prtiens and calories ..
***That's the whole point fbi.....its not about STARVING oneself........
OBESITY is a recognised risk factor for a lot of diseases e.g diabetes , hypertension , heart disease , osteoporosis to name a few and putting all those things in our system doesn't help us .....its about healthy living ...eating the right things and in the right proportions.
The Biggest Loser Challenge is NOT about starving yourself but about making the DECISION to commit to taking better care of your body and changing your lifestyle to a healthier and fitter YOU !
..........and that in no means implies that you need to deny yourself any of the above mentioned foods. Its about MODERATION and knowing when to STOP !***
well there is no “healthy” when everything has been grown using chemicals and what not and buying organic foods are out of the picture cuz they’re just to freaking expensive
