Thank you for that helpful clarification ZoneCoach!
I use to be better at this when I first started the Zone a yr ago. I need to re-read some pages in the books I have.
Tell me if I am right: (Please
)
1. If I have a 3 oz protein, ie: chicken, I count this as 3 P Blocks, and 1.5 F Blocks, having to add
ONLY 1.5 F blocks and 3 C to put it in the Zone.
2. If I have a fat, ie: Cheese, I
should count the protein and fat, but
do not count the protein in peanut butter, just the fat. Nuts I
should count 70% of the protein and count all of the fat.
3. If I have a carb from veggie, ie: spinach,
Do not count the protein, only the carbs. But if I chose to have "plant source," beans, nuts, etc. Count
70% of the protein and
all of the carb.

I kind of like that aspect of it. I am majoring in Math Education, so it's fun for me.
I took a quiz on line that I found once and it was to find out which diet was right for me. Out of Atkins, Suzanne Somers, Zone and a few others, the Zone was it!
I just LOVE this support forum, that's what truely makes it easy. So thanks, to everyone!
