#12> You don't actually want 300 calories of refined flour. Personally I always want this.
The only thing I want more than 300 calories of flour is 600 calories of flour.

#13I was shocked that my continuous glucose monitor showed a huge spike for popcorn without butter. Last time I had it.

#14This is also what I discovered. That a lot of what I like about beer and soft drinks is the carbonation, so having carbonated (calorie-free) water has similar satisfaction.

I’ve found this to work for me incredibly well. Even just “club soda” fulfills 90% of the “cravings” I might have for a beer or soft drink. The other 10% I am probably actually hungry and just not realizing it.

#18Cool idea. For the sake of being pedantic: > The whole bowl has fewer calories than two slices of garlic bread Really? Idk what the sizes are, but I looked up the weight of one of those micro wave popcorn packages, which usually fill the bowl we have at home. That seemed to be 100g, which is about ~350 kcal not including oil/butter. I'm getting about ~275 for 100g of bread, which is more than two slices. That's about…
I should have included the following information in the blog post (will update it later!):
I usually have:
- 45g of air popped popcorn (64 calories).
- 5 to 10g of butter (37 - 74 calories).
- couple of garlic cloves (10 cals).
