Calories Consumed In The Form Of Food

Everyone wonders how many calories are they taking in, while having a breakfast, meal or dinner. I too am of the same league and have kept wondering about the calorie count which I might be consuming while having my food. Well, today's post will answer at least some of your questions regarding the consumption of calories through food. I will try to built up a chart of calories in different foods that we consume, so that you guys can refer it when you think like.
I would mostly concentrate on our day to day diet ingredients.

Here we go.
  • 1 Mixed Fruit Cup will give you 60 calories.
  • 1 Cup of Oatmeal Cereal will give you 240 calories.
  • 1 boiled egg is equivalent to 77 calories.
  • 1 banana 75 calories.
  • 6 almonds 45 calories.
  • 1 walnut 20 calories.
  • 10 - 20 raisin will provide 60 calories.
  • 1 serving of vegetable gives 80 calories.
  • 1 serving of vegetable proteins like beans is worthy of 145 calories.
  • 1 serving of non veg protein like fish or chicken has 200 calories.
  • 1 apple/orange/gauva has 60 calories.
  • Orange juice or Apple juice 140 calories.
  • 35 gms of granola bar can lend you 140 calories.
  • 1 bowl veg soup 110 calories.
  • 1 cup salad 150 calories.
  • 1 cup gelato 178 calories.
  • 1 cup of low fat milk 100-160 calories.

Physical Activity Reduce Calorie

Are you people willing to burn your calorie. Then there are certain tips one can always follow to reduce the calorie and getting active.

Tip 1. Don't just walk get running. Hop, skip, jog. There are so many ways you can get active. Half an hour of any of the above form of activity is sufficient to keep one fit. My schedule is jogging for 20 minutes twice a week.

Tip 2. Our household activities need water. e.g. In a week atleast twice, I try and take atleast 50 buckets of water to fill the water tank on the second floor from the Ground Floor water tank. On second floor which is an open terrace, I have tied three ropes so that I always have to pass from below then with the bucket. This way I exert my stomach and abs as well.

Tip 3 : Any form of physical activity is sufficient to burn calories, not necessarily it has to be jogging. There are so many things, start cleaning your floor, wash your car, take out your gardening tools and start shaping your lawns and still there are so many things like washing your clothes, cleaning utensils... No I am not joking.
