Calorie Exchange Rate- Did you know

Your Calorie Exchange Rate
So you ordered the fried seafood special last night. Sounds great! If you don't treat yourself now and then, in moderation, of course.... you will only feel deprived. You can enjoy yourself and burn off all those extra calories with some interesting activities. Read below to see how long you will have to play to burn off those treats....

Calorie Exchanges - Did you know that:

Baguette slice w/2 oz of Brie cheese is 374 calories- to burn it off 45 min. of sightseeing

7 Fied Shrimp is 454 calories - to burn it off 2 hours, 9 min of playing water volleyball

Mai Tai w/2oz rum is 260 calories - to burn it off 52 min of dancing

Slice of Key Lime Pies is 450 calories - to burn it off 1 hour 20 min of snorkeling

Bowl of risotto is 240 calories - to burn it off 1 hour 8 min of walking through a museum

Vanilla soft-serve ice cream cone - to burn it off 1 hour 42 min of cruising the boardwalk

Add your treats to your daily weight loss journal and then next to the treat write down the fun play to burn the calories off. This will reward you as well guide you.
