Cooking Games and Calories

When you play cooking games, some girls can’t help but think of calories. Calories aren’t really the enemy, however. Calories will exist in everything you eat, the number of calories present will vary wildly, of course. The more calorie in a particular item, the richer it is likely to be, and it will need to be considered carefully if you’re watching your weight.

High calorie foods tend to be yummy. Rich, fatty, sugary foods are delicious to eat, but often have more calories than they do nutrition. Cakes, for example, are fun to bake and fun to eat, but don’t do much for you nutrient wise. You can tackle this in two ways.

The first is to simply bake those cakes and other goodies for friends, family members and neighbors. Stick to the low cal treats, such as fruit, for yourself. The other option is to make the cake and eat it, too. Just know that you’ll have to cut way back on junk food for the next couple of day to counteract the calories from the one day of treats.
