Counting veggies

[sexy_sefora]

When i was working with someone she counted Non-starchy veggies as 25cals but unlimited to the amount.

I was wondering how everyone else counts their veggies, with the cals and carbs.

I was thinking of just entering it in fitday and write in the exact amount i eat.

And should i be counting them as a carb?

I eat a lot green beans :)

but i like broccoli and peas too

How many threads have this same topic....?

Most people don't count fibrous veggies, but do count starchy one (like corn). It's up to you.

If there is a topic on this could you direct me to it?

Sefora - the threads on this show that most don't count them and that some do...pretty much up to you. The suggestions seemed to be unless you eat a truckload of them - like 3 cups a meal is pretty significant - then don't. The idea was you should not bother counting, BUT if your porgress halts then maybe take a look at it.

It isnt in the topic line, but it is covered in here. :)

Ok thank you. I was just wondering what others do.
