Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Help Jody! I have been on fitday.com for hours! I am trying to lay out a menu that would ensure that my kids are getting a correct percentage of carbs. What is an adequate percentage? I am having difficulty getting 50% carbs without dishing out lots of fruit. I don't want to be fruit-heavy due to yeast-feeding. Which vegetables carry heavy carbs? Green beans and spinach seem to do little in this category. Squash is the only one I have found to be significant. Jeni Lynn SCD 3 weeks P.S. In general, we are still cooking, deseeding, and pureeing due to 3 month regression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Simple carbs are simple carbs, regardless of their source based on Elaine's work. A simple carb from a pear or a simple carb from a squash. Avocados, apples, grape juice, bananas, butternut squash are all high in carbs. It does take a lot of fruits and veggies to get enough carbs. That's why I so highly recommend using something like fitday.com. Jody mom to -7 and -9 SCD 1/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
