How To Avoid Gaining Scary Pounds At Halloween


The average American eats 25 pounds of candy per year, and the majority of those pounds come from the holidays - specifically Halloween. FindTheBest.com’s Candy Bar comparison sorts sweets according to brand, serving size, calories, total fat, sugar and more so health conscious trick-or-treaters can indulge in the fun of this spooky season while still picking a candy that is the least of all evils. And if community M&M’s and mini Butterfingers haunt the office, FindTheBest also has a comparison for various exercises that ward off extra weight. For example, users can sort exercises by type or calories burned. In a side-by-side comparison between running and biking, running burned 852 calories per hour (roughly 3.7 Snickers) for a 150-pound woman, which is 137 more calories than biking at a vigorous speed for the same time. If neither exercise nor staying away from the pumpkin full of candy is an option, then FindTheBest can help you find the perfect diet plan for the aftermath. Dieters can filter categories based on brand name, advertised (total) weight loss, advertised duration of diet, advertised loss of pounds per week and various other goals.
