While consistent exercise efficiently destroys calories, burning off a dessert takes longer than most people think. The Royal Society for Public Health demonstrated how long it takes to burn off food by running or walking. According to them, one bar of milk chocolate requires a 42-minute walk or a 22-minute run.

On top of that, Harvard researchers learned that most people underestimate the calories of fast food meals. About 25% of participants underestimated a McDonald’s meal by 500 calories. Before you treat yourself, think about whether you’ll be willing to exercise it off later.
