Message: <blockquote data-quote="Longthorpe" data-source="post: 251325" data-attributes="member: 41830">Can you please explain how it works so well with low carb? I have just been to the diet plate website and it portions ONE MEAL of carbs for a female as between 90-125g of starchy carbs:"All potatoes, peas, corn, parsnips, butter beans, noodles, rice, naan bread, maize, lentils and pasta is measured in the STARCHY CARBOHYDRATE section, the tape measure again forming the boundary.The Female version will give 3 - 4 ounces of carbohydrate(90 - 125 grams). "That seems like way too much carb in one meal for someone who is following low carb - my total for the day is 100g and I have been advised to have a moderate carb intake. Also, it says on the plate to 'think low fat'. I don't believe that fits with how most of us see a low carb diet.I do see how keen you are on it, you've made 3 posts on the site and you rave about this plate in all of them.  I am just struggling to see how such a thing would be suitable for people following LC.</blockquote>
