How many times per week or month do you dine out? You may think you're making great choices when you're ordering from the menu, and maybe you are. However, please do yourself a favor and check out the restaurant's menu either online or ask for calorie/fat contents for the items you're ordering before you eat them. I was just on earl's website; I love their food and go there frequently. I looked up some of the items that I've ordered in the past and got a big shock. One of the entrees had over 1000 calories !!! That's about 3 times what you want in one meal. You never know what you're really eating if you haven't prepared it yourself, so stay informed!

If you're like most people, you enjoy a nice, cold drink on a hot summer day. Do you ever have an Ice Cap from Tim Horton's? They're delicious, cold, creamy and taste just right on a hot day. Ever wonder how many calories or fat these yummy drinks contain? Educate yourself on what you're taking in, you might be suprised. A medium Ice Cap has 360 calories; that might be an amount you had saved up for a whole meal. Here is the Tim Horton's website with their nutritional info: http://www.timhortons.com/ca/en/menu/nutrition-calculator.html You can always enjoy "bad" foods, but in moderation. Go for a small size instead of medium or large. Happy Mother's Day!
