Okay, I’m freaking out…I have been trying to be better about writing down everything I eat, counting all the calories I am consuming so as to keep myself under 1500. The internet, of course, is handy for many things not the least of which is to look up the calorie content of various foods. I have some mini-Reese’s PButter Cups in my office plus some Tootsie Rolls (little ones) for my kids to have while they meet with me for therapy. I had 4 mini-Resses today and two mini Tootsie Rolls. The total calories for the Reeses was 144 or 4×36 calories each. I was shocked and horrified to find that Tootsie Rolls apparently have 140 calories each!! Can you believe that??? No wonder I’m not losing any weight! Here I am thinking, Tootsie Rolls, they are so small. And meanwhile those bastards are packing quite a caloric punch. Yikes! That’s all I can say.
