NWR: Derf, Me can't read!

I’m following South Beach and you are allowed a sugar free snack (75 cals) a day.

I saw sugar free icebreaker sours at the store and was like “Oooo, yay!” I read the nutrition info and tired little me thought it read “Serving size, 5 pieces. Pieces per container : 53. Calories per serving <5.

So upon reading this, I did the math. If there are 5 pieces of candy per serving and each serving is <5 calories, each piece if roughly 1 cal. There are 53 pieces per container so the whole container of candy is 53 cals?! FABULOUS!

I ate the whole fuggin thing and then I read that each serving size is ONE candy and ONE candy is <5 cals.

5 Calories x 53 pieces in the container = roughly 265 calories!!!

AHHHH!!! OMG I’m such a nincompoop!

That's the part that pisses me off! They weren't even that great...I was eating them because they were only 53 cals lol...so I thought

Also, FH and I have been working 9-5 then renovating our new house 6-11. Any alone time we've been getting is NOT 265 cals worth
