[QUOTE="Sallycook, post: 193169, member: 34565"] Thanks for this guys. The Accucheck seems good. I wasn't so much the ratio I was getting at, it's that there doesn't seem to be a carbohydrate book/machine/calculator - e.g. You're round a friend's and they're doing fajitas with a shop-bought sauce and you know each fajita is 2 carb points (20gCOH) but the sauce... Well with something like Weightwatchers, you just look it up in a table and it tells you or you can use their points machine which carries that info. I just thought something like that purely for carbs would be a good idea. I like the idea of the computer based one but that doesn't fit in my handbag! A book would do but with modern technology I thought a machine would be better. Something that would tell you what half an Asda thin n crispy veggie pizza is exactly. Most things have it on the backs of packets and you have to calculate from there. Might check out that Accucheck. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
