Calorie Counting
Definition
(Noun; Dieting) Counting calories is like counting sheep to fall asleep - it's tedious and never ends!
Usage
I'm so good at calorie counting that I can tell you the exact number of calories in a hug!
Insight
Calorie counting was invented by an ancient civilization who wanted to measure how much energy they had left after eating their food...but then they discovered fire and forgot all about it!
Origin
The practice of calorie counting originated when two cavemen argued over who ate more berries from the bush outside their cave - one said he ate more than the other but there was no way to prove it without keeping track of each berry consumed!
