I may have another dumb ? Ok so this one might top my how miles in car vs your feet question..... Why is it when you add milk to cereal the calories go up? Is it the milk thats adding the calories or what? That drives me nuts, I dont get it. |
yep! milk has calories, so the more you add, the higher it will be. skim milk has the least though |
Twalla, I loves u, girlfriend. Here goes..... Milk has calolries, cereal has calories...... Milk + Cereal has calories than just milk or cereal. |
Now, I have a question for you that I have always wondered about :confused::D . Does Chocolate Milk come from brown cows? |
Thanks ... so let me ask this..... Can I count calories of cereal then count the calories of the milk that I have? I dont necessarily have to go by whats on the cereal box, right? I possibly need to go back to bed:p |

Ok Twalla, let's break this down to it's smallest component - the flake..... First, figure out how many calories are in each peice of cereal. Then count the individual pieces of cereal you are going to consume (remember to eat them all OR subtract those you leave behind). You will also have to figure indivual calories for cereal "add in's" like raisens, strawberries, bananas, etc. Then you know exactly the cereal calories. The milk is a bit easier. Measure the milk and figure the calories using the handy table on the milk jug. Remember to drink every drop or you will have to figure the milk drop by drop just like you did the cereal. |

:lol tears this is distracting me from the rain and winds we are now experiencing. |
Ok, so we have chocolate milk and strawberry milk figured out, but where does Banana milk come from? And even more important -- WHERE DO MILK SHAKES COME FROM - Oh I know, Elvis Impersonator Cows! |
:eyetearss |
OMG you two are hilarious! Twalla-just measure out your cereal into a bowl-typically a cereal bowl holds more than the "Recommended serving" on the box. If you eat 1.5 or 2 servings at a time, you have to count the calories for BOTH-no cheating ;). Then measure the milk from the carton/jug, and then you'll know the actual calories. I wouldn't use the box as a guide-your serving size could be smaller or larger, plus you don't know exactly how much milk you put into the bowl-and the box could say 2% milk, but you may be using 1% or skim which would make the calories less. |

I know that Cindy is a mess!!!! :D Thats what I was thinking... figure the calories for the cereal then figure the calories for the milk I was using. Which is FF Milk so 90 calories per cup. I measure the cereal too by just using a cup.:eek: I hate when I get like this bc I become a bit compulsive:confused: |

hahaha the questions are so cute!! |
Better yet, don't eat any cereal. It's too high glycemic and causes your blood sugar to go up, which in turn causes your body to produce insulin, which makes you want more sugar! I'd have one large egg if I were you - boiled, 80 calories. Unless you are cutting down your cholesterol. In which case I'd have Eggbeaters! :) |

oh gosh this thread is hysterical! Counting calories is no fun! Raisin Bran is a good healthy cereal, low is sugar, high in fiber. Fills you up for longer! :) |

So if you put coats and booties on them, does that give you warm milk? |
