Here’s another way to think about Halloween candy — how much walking will it take to work off the calories in each piece?
These are some of the calculations from walking.com:
2 Brachs caramels, 2 Hershey’s Kisses, 1 small Tootsie Roll, 1 Fun Size candy bar (Snickers, Milky Way, Butterfingers, etc.)1 mini bite-size candy bar (Snickers, Milky Way, Butterfingers, etc.), 1 Fun Size M&M packet – Plain or Peanut, 1 mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup, 1 full size chocolate candy bar (Snickers, Hershey, etc.), 1 King Size chocolate candy bar (Snickers, Hershey, etc.), …that comes to 1188 calories. You will need to walk 11.88 miles, 19.16 kilometers, or 23760 steps, assuming you cover one mile in 2,000 steps.
Do you want more energy, fewer creaky joints, and a non-expanding waistline? Food might provide the solution. You are what you eat – but everyone’s body is different. How you nourish it to get that energy, vitality, and waistline is specific to you.
