Did you ever wonder how you gain weight? You wake up one morning to realize that you are 15 lbs overweight. And you ask yourself "How did it happen?". Well, consider this.
1 pound of fat = 3500 calories. If on average, you eat an extra 120 calories, that equals 3600. So just by eating 120 calories more than you burn, you could gain 1 pound per month or 12 pounds per year.
What is 120 calories?
1 beer = 140
11/2 glass (5 oz) of red wine = 110
Small bagel = 190
