As you know, Thanksgiving dinner is the ONE time a year Americans allow themselves to eat an unhealthy meal . . . so just HOW unhealthy is it? Here's a breakdown of the calories you'll eat at the average Thanksgiving . . .

--Six ounces of turkey, with skin.  299 calories.

--Sausage stuffing, 310 calories.

--Dinner roll with butter, 310 calories.

--Sweet potato casserole, 300 calories.

--Mashed potatoes, 140 calories.

--Green bean casserole, 110 calories.

--Cranberry sauce, 15 calories.

--Roasted vegetable, 83 calories.

--Slices of pumpkin and pecan pie with whipped cream, 919 calories.

So that's a total of 2,486 calories . . . which is basically supposed to be your daily total. And that number doesn't include any drinks, appetizers, SECONDS, or anything else you'll eat that day. (Consumerist)
