<br>ASK HUNGRY GIRL 
<br>
<br>
<br>Dear HG, 
<br>
<br>I'm planning to shop at the mall the day after Thanksgiving. And shopping 
<br>makes me hungry. So, HG, can I indulge in a Cinnabon, a slice of Sbarro 
<br>pizza, or one of those icing-covered pretzels while I shop? Won't I just burn 
<br>all those calories while walking around? 
<br>
<br>Shoppin' & Chewin'  
<br> 
<br> 
<br>Dear Shoppin' & Chewin', 
<br>
<br>Shopping is fun -- but food court grub is bad news for the most part. 
<br>Shopping is one of the few things that takes my mind off of food (that's the 
<br>good news for those of you who are the same way!). However, it sounds like 
<br>you have got YOUR mind made up and REALLY want to chew on some mall 
<br>food. So, here's the scoop... 
<br>
<br>An average 150-lb. human burns about 185 calories per hour of nonstop 
<br>shopping (which is not a huge number, especially considering that same 
<br>person burns about 70 calories per hour just sitting around). So if that 
<br>person decided to eat the following, here's how much time they'd need to 
<br>spend powering through the mall to burn it off...
<br>
<br>Cinnabon Classic Cinnamon Roll - 813 calories, 32g fat -- POINTS&reg; value 
<br>18*. They'd need to shop for almost 4 and a half hours straight to burn that 
<br>sucker off! 
<br>
<br>Sbarro Chicken & Vegetable Thin-Crust Pizza Slice - 530 calories, 17g fat -- 
<br>POINTS&reg; value 11*. It would take a nearly 3-hour-long shopping marathon 
<br>to burn up those calories. 
<br>
<br>Auntie Anne's Glazin' Raisin Pretzel - 510 calories, 4g fat -- POINTS&reg; value 
<br>10*. Burn that off with a whopping 165-minute shopping session. 
<br>
<br>Keep in mind, NONE of the above options are great ones, as far as meals or 
<br>snacks are concerned. For a sweet snack while shopping, you're better off 
<br>keeping Quaker Mini Delights in Cinnamon Streusel (90 calories, 3.5g fat -- 
<br>POINTS&reg; value 2*) on hand to kill that Cinnabon craving. If you've gotta 
<br>break down and have the Sbarro pizza, definitely stick with the plain thin-
<br>crust cheese slice instead of that other loaded one -- it'll save you 70 calories 
<br>and 4g fat, but know that it still packs in 460 calories and 13g fat (POINTS&reg; 
<br>value 10*). If you NEED to have a pretzel, go for a plain one (no butter!), 
<br>and it'll only have about 340 calories & 1g fat (POINTS&reg; value 6*). Your best 
<br>bet is definitely to find some lean meats and veggies while at the mall (my 
<br>advice -- hit the deli for a protein-packed salad with low-cal dressing!). Hope 
<br>you find some great sales!

<br>Dear HG, 
<br>
<br>Thanksgiving is HERE, and I am freaking. I do NOT want to overeat. Help 
<br>me, HG! 
<br>
<br>Gobble Gobble  
<br> 
<br> 
<br>Dear Gobble Gobble, 
<br>
<br>I'm glad you emailed asking for help -- that's a good start. Here's the deal. I 
<br>know you may have heard some of these before, but there are a few dos 
<br>and don'ts you really should follow on Thanksgiving to avoid overeating. 
<br>They'll help -- I promise. First, do NOT starve yourself before the big meal. 
<br>Eat breakfast. Eat a light meal a few hours before the turkey dinner, too. Do 
<br>NOT sit down to Thanksgiving dinner when you're STARVING. That is a really 
<br>bad idea. And have a glass (or two) of water before you start eating, to take 
<br>the edge off of your hunger. That's an old trick that really works well. When 
<br>you fill up your plate, stick with white meat turkey (not dark). Take lots of 
<br>veggies and/or salad, and not as much of the fattening sides. Stick with small 
<br>portions of dishes like green bean casserole (unless it's our low-cal version!), 
<br>sweet potato pie (we've got a swap!), stuffing (yep, here's HG's version), 
<br>mashed potatoes, etc. Have tastes of the things you really love, but don't 
<br>overdo it. If you feel the need for seconds, go for more white meat turkey 
<br>and veggies. When it's time for dessert, you shouldn't be too hungry, so 
<br>instead of having a huge piece of pie with ice cream, have a mini dessert.

<br>full Turkey Day Survival Guide from last Friday. Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
