A calorie counter...............

Sorry! to be late to post your answer. Since I started writing this blog, I started being busy with so many things but writing. I was even feeling like the big shot writer's block. Heee..........heee...........
Any way, here is a calorie count of couple of vegetables that definitely will help you some or other way.
I also found out that average size chapati or roti has around 80 cals. Just to remind you one more time, always good to use pure atta or the brown atta. Maida or bleached white atta is not good for health at all.
A cup of black tea contains 0-2 calories, but adding sugar and milk Will add at least 35-55 calories more, depending upon how much sugar you are using & how much or what kind of milk, like whole, reduced fat or skim milk.
Another reminder, try to use a cup of green tea with a pack of low cal. sugar & a lemon slice, it is refreshing plus it boosts your metabolism so you loose weight more throughout the day.
Write me your queries, i will be happy to answer. Some time I have to do some research before I write, so i might be late but will be back with your answer definitely.
