I eat like 2 reece cups a day, every single day.I am a female. I am 5'4 and pretty lean. I weigh 130, and work out and lift weights. I want to know if this will make me gain weight? Should I work out more if I eat multiple reece cups everyday? I work out 2-3 times per week. They are so delicious, I believe I'm addicted!
How to Lose Weight by Walking Fast
Recommended Answer:
You will gain weight if these 2 reece cups bring your total calorie intake above your TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) aka. if you're eating more than you're burning then you'll gain weight.It's great that you lift weights..if only more females did the same!! Regarding the Reese's Cups (I have never actually tried one of these...):"But, like everything in life, you'll have to moderate your indulgence, and the 10-20% guideline is the best way I've found to do this. There currently is no compelling evidence suggesting that a diet whose calories are 80-90% from whole & minimally processed foods is not prudent enough for maximizing health, longevity, body composition, or training performance" *Other Answers:
- There is a difference between eating peanut butter and eating reece cups... Peanut butter, and especially natural peanut butter, isn't all that bad for you. However, in reece cups, you are just eating processed peanut butter, with added sugar and chocolate, so it is obviously not unhealthy. If you eat well besides that and workout, you probably will not gain a bunch of fat from having one or two everyday, however if you continue to eat them and then more, and stop working out and stuff like that then you will. Either way, whether you are gaining weight or not, eating a package or two of those things isn't helping your body, so I wouldn't get into the habit.
- well those reese cups carry alot of sugar and fat in them if i were you id limit myself to about maybe a couple on a friday
- I would chuck them and find a healthier option :) Too much of anything is bad for you! Try a healthy grain/cereal bar or something, not a sugary high-calorie one though.
