Day 3: I was shocked this afternoon to discover that a mere 11 tortilla chips equals 180 calories. No wonder I was having trouble taking off the weight, because I was eating way more than 11 chips at a time. I didn't count, and I ate them right out of the bag -- a recipe for caloric disaster. That puts this snack over the allotted 300 calories I've given myself for snacks, so I count out five chips and measure out my hummus. I'm totally satisfied, though, so that's a good thing.

This is definitely incentive to eat my favorite afternoon snack with cucumbers and bell peppers instead of chips. Better nutrition, and way more food!
