LOL Is this the same quiz that was on CNN? That was a joke too!
I got 4 wrong:
Quote:
2. If you follow a low-carb diet, you can consume more calories.
The correct answer is False
Many people gain weight because they scarf down huge plates of pasta or other carb-laden foods, but a calorie is a calorie, and if you consume too many, you will tip the scales--whether you're noshing on chicken or capellini.

I consume about 50% more calories and am loosing faster than high carb
This one is just plain wrong!

7. What's the best low-carb option to satisfy your sweet tooth?
The correct answer is An oatmeal cookie
Of the above-mentioned choices, the oatmeal cookie deserves top dessert status, racking up only 10 carb points. Strawberries dipped in dark chocolate (which packs in the antioxidants) come in second. The other choices are best enjoyed rarely--and in small doses.

Strawberries and DARK chocolate is so much healthier than a cookie! What, because it's oatmeal it's good for you!?!?!?!?
When will they learn! It's NOT JUST THE NUMBER, IT'S THE QUALITY!!!!! (sorry...didn't mean to shout!)
I chose the burger over the salad too. Of course, I'd probably choose nothing.....fast food places make me sick. I'd have black coffee or water. |
