It may be hard to gauge how many calories a food item might have. The guys at wiseGEEK presents 68 different food items of what represents 200 calories. From celery to burgers, even Bailey's Irish Cream! Definitely puts into perspective how calorie dense some foods are, mostly the junk. Just a visual way of showing why it's so easy to go overboard with fast foods, chips, and candy. You hardly get any substance. Which is why I always advocate to people who want to lose some weight..."EAT MORE VEGGIES!". Not only will the bulk (and fiber) keep you full, but it's packed with tons of awesome vitamins and minerals that you need. Also, the additional fiber will keep you regular on the toilet. It's a win-win.
I posted a few of my favorites. Definitely check out the full gallery!
