If you have ever bought a package of butter croissants at Trader Joe's, then you know they are huge (and delicious). Reading the nutrition label, you also learn that a serving is one croissant that weighs 78 grams (a little over 2.75 ounces). And that croissant has 340 calories. If you accepted that information blindly and you were trying to count calories, then you would be undercounting the calories in that croissant by 35 percent.
If you have ever traveled in Europe, you know how good the croissants taste. So, seeing the croissants at Trader Joe's (at Paseo and Ventura in Albuquerque), I decided to treat myself and bought a package. A fat reduction review can help you establish a clear outline of what you require to focus on to complete your fat reducing objective if you're a beginner; or serve as a reminder for those who are at an intermediate or more enhance stage of their losing weight program. Following are seven steps that can serve as instructions for your personal weight loss system. The first thing that one must understand is that losing weight and losing fat is not the same thing. Many weight loss applications have fooled people into thinking that it is the same, but most diets and weight loss programs only work by leading to a person's body to lose more muscle tissue and water than actual body fat, more help please visit The Fat Loss Factor. Because of their huge size, I cut one in half (giving me 4 servings instead of 2 out of the package), and an alleged 170 calories per serving. To my shock, that half of one croissant weighed 79 grams, or more than one serving. According to the package label, it should have weighed 39 grams. To doublecheck, the remaining whole croissant weighed 105 grams (half of it would be 52.5 grams, making approximately 2.75 servings in a package, not 2). (The original one weighed about the same--105 grams.)
Of course, I will report this information to the manager at Trader Joe's. As I have found many times, the labeling is not always correct. So, it pays to have a good scales handy so that you can weigh your own portions and be assured that you are getting the proper size, especially if you are counting calories and trying to stay within a certain range.
