Calories? Exercise? Just let us have some festive fun
News to chew over as you plan your festive menus… the average adult consumes about 6000 calories on Christmas Day alone.
That’s at least three times the recommended daily calorie intake for a woman. Researchers have found that telling volunteers how much exercise they’d need to work off their food intake helped them lose weight.
Because you’d have to run for more than two-and-a-half hours to get rid of a full Christmas dinner.
Honestly. Some people are determined to ruin our fun. Don’t they know that by the time most cooks sit down to Christmas dinner, they’ve already run off at least the starter, main course and a tub of Celebrations just by organising every blooming thing?
So pop another Terry’s Chocolate Orange in your fruit bowl and relax.
