So, I'm checking out my feeds on Google Reader the other day and I found a sort of chain of blogs or a blogchain that led me to an interesting post at WiseGeek.com. Here's how the blogchain went:
1) google.com/reader (I start many blogchains here)
2) "Geeky" section: Lifehacker.com (great site)
3) http://lifehacker.com/software/health/the-200-calorie-gallery-226444.php (the actual post which referenced the original post below)
4) http://www.wisegeek.com/what-does-200-calories-look-like.htm
That WiseGeek.Com post is really cool--it features more than twenty photographs of foods arranged in 200-calorie piles. This is great because, if you're like me, you have a hard time equating what abstract measurements equate to in reality. So, what the hell does 200 calories of peanut butter look like? Well, now you've got a reference. According to the WiseGeek post, the US Government says we should consume between 2000 and 2500 calories a day and knowing what that actually looks like means overeating will be much harder to do.
Pretty cool, huh? .
