Read Food Nutrition Labels – Daily Vigilance with Tabs

Posted on October 3, 2008

My sister and I both agree that if you cook a whole bag of pasta by the end of the day you will have eaten a bag of pasta. Now this is fine if you have a party of eight people but one or two people, well, you have a problem because one serving size for pasta is 2/3 cups. Who eats 2/3 cups of pasta?

Really, you should be vigilant of everything you eat, I am a fan of the occasional doughnut but I love and eat pasta and pizza. This weekend I read the nutritional label on a box of frozen pizza and let’s say I had to think twice before reaching for the another slice and that was frozen pizza, I know my favorite pizza restaurant has bigger slices and much more stuff on it, and I barely ever eat frozen pizza.

I am in no way shape or form saying don’t eat pizza, but stop at two slices because depending on the slice size, salad (if you are good) soda and dessert, your dinner is a good 1,200 calorie meal. Correct me if I am wrong but except you are Michael Phelps, you have no business eating 1,200 calories in one meal.

Be vigilance about what you eat…

It is all about living eternal vigilance.

Have a nice day
