Is there a difference in a calorie from lets say a cookie and a calorie from lets say an apple?
I've been dieting for about a month now and have lost 8 pounds (wish it was a bit more but oh well). I think I may be at a standstill and was wondering this:
If I have 100 calories left at the end of the day, does it really matter if I use those 100 calories on say a cookie rather than an apple as long as I stay in my range for the day (which is 1200)? i've done that and was wondering if this is hurting me. I just assumed as long as I stayed under my 1200 calories that it didnt matter what I ate. Is this correct?
This is not correct, you should chose the apple over the cookie, while you may still have 100 calories left in the day you have to consider the carb content, protein, sugar, and overall nutritional value..when it comes to losing weight it is important to cut down calories but even more imporant to eat the right 1200 calories. I wouldnt necessarily choose the apple or cookie at the end of the day because the high amounts of sugar in them both, it just depends on the time of the night your eating them and if your body has enough time to burn off them before going to bed. I would substitute that 100 calories for something with protein in it, it will repair your muscles and feeds your muscles to burn fat. If you have any more questions feel free to ask me.
Mailing Fresh Cookies - How To Keep Them Fresh And Safe During Shipping
Cookies are a versatile gift consideration for any event. Below is a step-by-step process to getting your cookies there without losing freshness or taste!
Article:
A delightful gift for any reason is self baked cookies. Cookies are versatile and generally popular. You can delight a family member serving overseas, your grandparents, or your co-workers on the Christmas list. Still, in order to be really appreciated, the cookies must survive the travel to their recipient fresh and unbroken. Here, we give you a bit of advice on how to achieve just that.
First, you want to let your cookies cool to room temperature before packaging them. If the cookies are still warm, they will let out their moisture inside the container which can cause them to become soggy, or even moldy. However, you would do best not to wait more than 24 hours after they come out of the oven to send out your cookie gift. If you don't want the recipient to have dry and stale cookies, don't wait beyond that.
Now you have to wrap the cookies. The most popular materials used to wrap cookies are cellophane or waxed paper. Either material will suffice. In some instances your cookies have a long journey. In such cases, wrapping them individually may be a wise move, so they don't stick together. In case you're mailing your baked goods in a cookie tin or strong box, you can package the baked sweets in cupcake papers or coffee filters. Don't mix different kinds of cookies. That way their varying moisture levels and flavors are maintained. If you are worried about your cookies drying out along the way, try placing a bit of bread or slice of apple in the package.
Next, you should place the cool cookies in an airtight container. A metal tin is a favorite for most. During the holiday season, most general or grocery stores sell specific tins for just this reason. However, every day you can buy tins suitable for cookies at DYI stores and general stores. Let's not forget glass jars, mason jars, plastic tubs, even disposable plastic containers to buy in stores. General stores offer re-usable plastic containers for pretty low prices. Of course, the most basic but least frilly option is the plastic bag. Bags do allow for flexibility and decent protection from leaks, but not strength, so you would want to put the bag in a stronger receptacle. Any form of container absolutely must be airtight. Through this we keep moisture, contamination, and more undesirable things away from your home baked cookies, and retain the flavor of your gift.
Finally, place your cookies in the shipping box. Boxes are plentiful. Buy them, utilize an old one, or scrounge one at your area grocery or general store. Protect the cookies on all sides. This can be done in many ways: bubble wrap, foam peanuts, old cardboard strips, and newspaper or magazine pages. Anything you can scrunch together is fair game for padding. Some rarely considered thoughts which are useful are popcorn or marshmallows and gum. These cushioning aides can then be enjoyed by the grandkids as well! Once your home made sweets are fully packaged and addressed, write ‘Fragile' on the box and mail them out. You want to send them quickly enough that they are not in shipping for over three or four days. Don't ship over a Sunday. You don't want your fresh cookies to sit in a shipping office. The shipping agent usually will give you an estimated arrival date to help with your planning.
Don't forget, as long as your cookies are cooled before they're sealed, they will likely arrive in good condition. Do not put more effort into mailing your cookies than you did creating them. Whoever gets them will be overjoyed with the sweets no matter what!
