Playing the long game for the long weekendđ
⢠Remember, to gain 1kg of fat - you would need to eat 7,700 calories above your usual maintenance intake
This can be done across the week, but highly unlikely in one day!
⢠These hollow eggs are 92cals each, that means youâd need to eat 12/day across the week or 84 in one day on top of your usual intake to gain 1kg of body fat!
⢠The 250g Cadbury Easter Bunnys are 1,350cals
That means youâd need to eat 6, either in one day or across the week on top of your usual intake to gain 1kg of body fat
⢠Iâm going to go out on a limb and say no one wants to eat that much chocolate bc youâd feel pretty sick and not even enjoy it at that point
HACKSđ
⢠So if youâre wanting to enjoy the (bunny or egg shaped) milk chocolate over Easter, why not opt to portion that bunny out across the week or choose smaller eggs and have a couple a day
⢠This way youâre not missing out, youâre hitting your craving and itâs still within your energy needs - so no weight gain! WIN WIN!
⢠As always, instead of eating the chocolate eggs by themselves, pair them with a source of protein and fibre and you will be 1000% times less likely to want to eat 10 more eggs straight away
Happy Easter everyoneđ°đ¸
