[QUOTE="BD101, post: 2659202, member: 582637"] The carbs quoted by Gousto assumes you have half of ALL the ingredients, including the sauces and spices. Some meals include things like honey, so unless you’re mopping up every scrap of your half of the meal, including the sauce, the numbers are going to be off. Sometimes I struggle to see where they’ve got their figures! Having said that, don’t obsess about it. Use their numbers as a guide but also eyeball the food and use common sense and experience , maybe weigh the major carb elements when serving. And don’t worry about the cooked/uncooked difference, it’s not significant. If you’re newly diagnosed don’t worry, you will learn from experience. [/QUOTE]
