[QUOTE="ebony321, post: 186491, member: 17199"] Hi, Before i did DAFNE i saw my dietician a few times, she had 'fake' plates of food, which were used to estimate the amount of carbs in food, it's basically a picture of a meal, for example potatoes chicken and vegetables, then on the underneath it showed how many 10g portions of carb was in each food on the plate. Pretty good at getting to know amounts of carbs by sight. Maybe your dietician has something similar. Theres also app's for iphones and smartphones that use pictures of food so you can estimate what your eating by comparing. I think theres also a carb counting book too that uses this method but i'm not sure what it's called, hopefully someone will be able to tell you and be more useful :) [/QUOTE]
