a question about nuts in phase 1
| Mon, 02-16-2004 - 3:27pm |
OK. I've read my SBD book and today I went out and bought the Good Fats, Good Carbs Guide. The allowed foods lists inside both books are the same. Both of them list a snack of almonds as 15 nuts. But inside the book, almonds are a "good" snack choice and you are allowed 1 ounce. On my 10 ounce can of almonds it lists 10 servings of 1/4 c. each. OK. I measured out 1/4 c. of almonds. That's a lot of almonds. Got out my trusty food scale (left over from my WW days). I mean, something has to be wrong, doesn't it? We're allowed 15 almonds or 1 ounce. Poured my 1/4 c. almonds on the scale. 1 oz. Counted them. 30 nuts. So which is it? 15 nuts or 1 oz. And why the discrepancy? Anybody know?
