Thanks Crystal. That is a great reminder I try to keep my scale handy to help me get portions somewhat right. I think the oil may be the thing that trips people up. But sometimes you also see that some people do not count certain items because they are treats so people have all kinds of different approaches

Always have to be aware of portions and what we choose to eat!

@buenita...exactly!! But when I first started shopping for healthier snacks, I was really shocked how high the calories were. It was an eye opener 👁

This a very good point especially when it comes to healthy fats like avocado s and nuts.

I'm always amazed at calorie counts for Granola. Even the simplest stuff on the shelves have a lot of sugar. I finally made some at home and cut the fats, sugars and nuts. I use it to top my yogurt & sugar-free applesauce breakfasts. You HAVE to read the nutrition label and double check the portion size.

@BT...I agree!! Granola, avocados & olive oil were my 3 big shockers! 😲
