BuffyBear's Journal, 14 January 2014

Today I will focus on eating more vegetables. Goal = 10 servings/day. But the crazy part is that the serving size varies with each type. So tonight I'll do some research to find out how close I come to 10.

Buffy I just go on 1/2 cup serving. I wouldn't try to make it so hard. :) I can do this if I make a smoothie with 6 cups of greens.

I love veggies! I have difficulty, sometimes calculating my calories to be "exact." I think that's impossible, at times. I'm pretty right on, but there are moments where you have to shake your head and say, hmmmm. LOL. Tonight I am having a swai fillet filled with crabmeat. It's all fresh fish. I didn't make it, so it's difficult to know how much stuffing exactly vs. the weight of the swai fillet. I know the total weight of both and will guestamate from there.

Hey, @Jill... I got some really good advice on that that I was using for awhile (for about the first three months). It really works. The advice I got was to stay away from "mixed" meals, like stews and such for awhile, until you got a pretty solid idea of how much things weigh. Weigh **EVERYTHING** and use a digital scale with grams. Weighing in grams is so much more precise. It was GREAT advice. I really did it for about 3 months, and now I'm rock-solid on estimating the few things I need to estimate. I'm also in a bit of a routine on quantities, and I still measure almost everything with that digital scale.

If you add the fiber column to your counter it might help, if you just set a total fiber goal for each day! like 40 or 50g of fiber!
