i am nothing to do with lidl by the way, but these seem real good value for the money as they are pre loaded with 1000 different foods, you cut yourself a piece of food, put it on the scales and it will give you the carb, fat , protein, kilocalories and cholesterol....weighs up to 5 kg so a handy set of scales as well...comes with batteries..and a good guide book with a list of all the pre loaded food stuffs in and how to use :D

What are the best universities for a nutrition major? Im currently enrolled at the University of Iowa, but they do not have a nutrition program. I was wondering what were the best schools for nutrition in the US?

At the risk of perhaps being inundated with requests (gulp)...

I have a set of these scales, also bought from Lidl. I found that the listings for the codes, in food group order rather than alphabetical, were a real pain, and flicking through the pages of the booklet each time to find the right section meant that the scales often timed out before I found the code I wanted.

So I put together an alphabetical list of codes which is much easier and more intuitive to use.

If anyone would like a copy of the list, PM me your email address and I'll attach the file. The file is in MS Word format and ready to print, or if you prefer I also have an Excel spreadsheet file with the same information.

EDIT: Oops, just realised that the original post, and so the Lidl offer, was in January :oops: and the thread was "bumped" by the post above.

Having no energy as this is so limiting.
Thank you frenchkittie. :D

My husband has organised the list into a booklet for me so it makes using it all very much easier. 8)

I didn't realise that the scales have a memory facility for counting the whole of the day's carbs or whatever it is you are counting - which could also be handy when I can get my head round it. :roll:
