1. If you eat something and no one sees you eat it,
it has no calories.

2. If you drink a diet soda with a candy bar, the calories
in the candy bar are canceled out by the diet soda.

3. When you eat with someone else, calories don't
count if you don't eat more than they do.

4. Food used for medicinal purposes NEVER count,
such as hot chocolate, toast and Sara Lee Cheesecake.

5. If you fatten up everyone else around you,
then you look thinner.

6. Movie related foods (Milk Duds, Buttered Popcorn,
Junior Mints, Red Hot's, Tootsie Rolls, etc.)
do not have additional calories because they are part of the
entertainment package and not part of one's personal fuel.

7. Cookie pieces contain no fat-- the process of
breaking causes fat leakage.

8. Things licked off knives and spoons have no calories
if you are in the process of preparing something.
Examples are peanut butter on a knife making a
sandwich and ice cream on a spoon making a sundae.

9. Foods that have the same color have the same number
of calories. Examples are: spinach and pistachio ice cream; mushrooms and white chocolate.


All the above works for me
