 Ossie-Sharon 8 years ago | Hi, lawther. To which “berry drink” are you referring (since you don’t have a lot of food there, it could make a big difference). |
 angeljackie 8 years ago | Ossie-Sharon — Thanks so much for all that good “exchange” information. I’ll have to learn how to put all that to use. |
 lawther1209 8 years ago | thank you, now how many carbs/protien fat etc exchanges should I use in one day I have
1x berry drink +
2 boiled eggs +
2rice cakes (no butter) I have half for breakfast and 1/2 mid day snack is this okay? I then follow the evening meal suggestion for diner.
New to this appreciate the support. |
| Ossie-Sharon 8 years ago | Hi, lawther1209. The following is the general guide for exchanges:
1 “Carb” = 15 grams of carbohydrate + up to 3 grams of protein
1 “Protein” = 7 grams of protein + up to 5 grams of fat
1 “Fat” = 5 grams of fat
1 “Fruit” = 15 grams of carbohydrate
1 “Vegetable” = 3-5 grams of carbohydrate, up to 2 grams of protein
1 “Sweet” = 15 grams of carbohydrate + up to 5 grams of fat
1 “Free” = up to 3 grams of carbohydrate, less than 2 grams of protein or fat. |
| lawther1209 8 years ago | How does 1 carb relate to calories/ or grams and /or how many carbs/protien fat etc exchanges should I use in one day |
