Default Table 3. Hit List of Weight-Gaining Behaviors from Dr. Phil's book

I have to take the book back to the library later today but I found this
table very interesting and I thought I'd share it while I still can:

"The information in this chart is based on typical calorie counts of foods
and beverages, as well as on scientific studies of the caloric cost of
specific eating behaviors. Results may vary from person to person. Annual
weight gain is based on calculating the estimated yearly caloric cost of
each behavior, then dividing by 3,500 calories (the number of additional
calories it takes to gain one pound.) *These figures have been rounded up."

EATING BEHAVIOR --- WEEKLY CALORIC COSTS -- ANNUAL CALORIC COSTS --
POTENTIAL WEIGHT GAIN PER YEAR

Eating second helpings (200 calories per helping) three times a week -- 600
extra calories a week -- 31,200 extra calories a year -- 9 pounds

Habitual overeating, every day, 380 extra calories a day -- 2,660 extra
calories a week -- 138,320 extra calories a year -- 40 pounds*

Eating a super-sized bagel (4-1/2" diameter, 323 calories), three times a
week, rather than having a small bagel, (3" diameter, 156 calories -- 500
extra calories a week -- 26,000 extra calories a year -- 8 pounds*

Eating Big Macs (or equivalent, 570 calories) twice a week, rather than
choosing a small-size hamburger (260 calories) -- 620 extra calories a
week -- 32,240 extra calories a year -- 9 pounds

Eating one glazed doughnut (290 calories) every day at work during your
coffee break - 1,450 extra calories a week -- 75,400 extra calories a
year -- 21 pounds*

Drinking a cup of whole milk (150 calories) twice a day, rather than having
skim milk (86 calories) -- 896 extra calories a week -- 46,600 extra
calories a year -- 13 pounds

Drinking one regular soda a day (144 calories), rather than having a
calorie-free soda -- 1,008 extra calories a week -- 52,400 extra calories a
year -- 15 pounds

Snacking on 15 to 20 potato chips a day (150 calories) -- 1,050 extra
calories a week - 54,600 extra calories a year -- 16 pounds*

Eating bowl of regular ice cream (280 calories) five times a week, rather
than having a bowl of nonfat frozen yogurt (160 calories) -- 600 extra
calories a week -- 31,200 extra calories a year -- 9 pounds

Bingeing twice a week (1,000 to 3,000 calories per binge) -- 2,000 to 6,000
extra calories a week -- 104,00 to 312,00 extra calories a year -- 30 to 90
pounds

Eating out at fast-food restaurants five times a week compared to having a
healthy meal prepared at home (56 extra calories per fast-food meal) -- 280
extra calories a week -- 14,560 extra calories a year -- 4 pounds

Snacking while watching television, five hours a week (136 extra calories
per snack) -- 680 extra calories a week -- 35,360 extra calories a year --
10 pounds

Nighttime eating, five episodes a week (270 calories per episode) -- 1,350
extra calories a week -- 70,200 extra calories a year -- 20 pounds

Drinking three beers at Happy House once a week (146 calories per beer) --
438 extra calories a week -- 22,776 extra calories a year -- 6-1/2 pounds

--------------------------------(end of chart)

And people wonder *why* they get fat! Be careful out there folks. (BTW,
it's page 133 of the book.)

Default Table 3. Hit List of Weight-Gaining Behaviors from Dr. Phil's book

You know, that chart sort of reinforces the way my thinking was going
yesterday when I was totally down about my stall. I was telling my trainer
that I used to eat way more than I am now and didn't really gain weight.
Well, that wasn't true, now was it, or I wouldn't be in the great shape I am
today. Those little "treats" can add up. I sometimes wonder how I used to
eat the way I did...and with no exercise. That's something I definitely do
not want to revisit about my younger days.

Thanks for the info.

Elise.

This type of information might help many who don't think can lose weight.
It shows how just one change in your current diet can help in losing weight.

After all the talk about his book I decided to start reading mine last
night. I'm just in the first section on getting real about your
expectations and goals. I loved the quote from Cindy Crawford - "Even I
don't wake up looking like Cindy Crawford".

Is Dr. Phil a psychologist or an accountant. He makes me soooo tired.

Losing weight needs to be simplified and made attractive.
That means a wide variety of wholesome, appetizing food, nice meals,
minimal snacking, an optimistic attitude and a productive life. it
helps to have a Whole Foods market nearby for focus on shopping for
what you want that is actually what you need.

In the time spent with the calculator and all the supposition and
numbers crunching (which you negate by cheating0 you could be doing
something that's fun instead!

i think Dr. Phil is a blight and so are all the other elaborate diet
specialists with their demanding, exacting programs.

Make lifestyle changes and moderations and stop looking for pie in the
sky you can eat and still expect to lose weight.

It's just one page of the book, designed to illustrate the bad choices we
make/made to get us fat. Dr. Phil's diet plan does not require any calorie
counting. It is definitely not an elaborate plan and is not demanding or
exacting. Before you criticize a diet plan, read the fricking book or you
come off looking like an *idiot*. The last sentence in your post could have
been lifted directly out of the book!

This is from the book, p. 185:

"If you hate counting calories, adding up points, calculating charbohydrates
or fat grams, multiplying nutrient percentages, and having to remember
confusing details about food groups, then you will love what I am going to
show you about meal planning. All you have to do is take out a dinner plate
and mentally divide it into four sections, or quadrants.

At each meal, fill one section with a protein, another section with a
starch, and the remaining two sections with vegetables or a vegetable and a
fruit. Another way to look at this is that one-fourth of your food comes
frpm protein, one-fourth from starch, and the rest (half of your plate)
comes from low-calories, high-fiber plant-based foods, including fruits and
vegetables."

From p. 190

"THE SEVEN-DAY HIGH-RESPONSE COST, HIGH-YIELD FOOD PLAN

Day 1: Sunday

Breakfast: Banana, oat bran (cooked), low-fat milk, coffee or tea
Snack: Apple, meal replacement beverages [i.e., protein shake (my comment)]
Lunch: Tuna, vegetable soupu, salad greens and slice tomato, whole-wheat
roll (medium), reduced-fat salad dressing
Snack: Orange
Dinner: Sirloin steak, baked potato with fat-free sour cream, broccoli,
green beans"

In between page 185-190, he explains what good portion sizes are and how to
judge them. He also explains prior to p.185 what are the "good" foods.
There is absolutely nothing listed that I would disagree with.

Open your mind, Carol. It gets stale in there if you don't!

When I read the last sentence in the post I wondered if she had collaborated
with Dr. Phil on the book g

As I said in a previous post I've just started reading the book but I've
heard from several people it has some great information. I'm one of those
easily distracted readers so it might take me quite awhile to read it. I
doubt very much I can just wait for the movie for this one

Sorry T, in my books, money grubbing Dr. Phil is the bad choice. he has
now crowned himself king of the diet community when i would give the
title to Richard Simmons for genuibe caring that is not self serving. I
am very akti Phil becaus of how he embarasses subjects on national
television.

No more than usual. If I had only been dieting for a few months or a
few years, I might be more tolerant of all the bull shi---- people do
about dieting because if they are sincere they will look upon it as
liberation, not deprivation. you were never crazy about me Tonia and
neither my weight nor that has changed in a few years.
if someone is sincere they will accept that changes must be made and
they will make them. All else is rhetoric.
