Hope you are having a wonderful and healthy day! Today I want to discuss a major "dieting" misunderstanding with you. I want to show you the difference between the consumption of 100 calories compared to the expenditure of 100 calories. This is definitely going to help you make wiser eating decisions and healthier choices. Without further adieu, lets have a chat about: **Eating Vs. Exercise for 100 Calories It is easy to eat 100 calories without even thinking about it. If you add ketchup to your fries, 100 calories, guzzle a glass of skim milk, 100 calories, munch a piece of plain toast, 100 calories. But how long does it take to burn 100 calories?
