Countdown to Diet Disasters - #9


9. Not reading labels. The most important number you need to pay attention to is the serving size. It’s easy to eat too much if you aren’t aware of how many servings are in a bottle or box and you consume the whole package, thinking it’s a single serving.

Comment:  I made this mistake once with a package of Ramen Noodles.  I actually love them but never really READ the label.  I did notice all the salt they contained.  I noticed the calorie count.  But that was all I "read".  I didn't notice that each package contains 2 servings.  I was actually eating the WHOLE package and boy was I overdoing it.  I have actually written these off my diet after actually reading the label.
