Question about the recipes
Loving all the holiday recipes but I've noticed one thing...what constitutes a serving size? Having all the nutritional values is great, but it won't be accurate if we don't know how many ounces or grams or whatever equals one serving.
Was just wondering.

The ones that I post do have those measurements., I will start posting them when they give them to me .
We should get together at my Kitchen and let me cook these for you ?
It would be cool to have a cooking class ... ? Gosh knows I love to cook .. and love to cook when there is people there to eat !
Miss you !

Anne sorry they dont ALL have the nutritional value w/ them and all I can say id dont use them if you choose not to. I was putting them out there for those who wish to use, Why does there always have to be someone or something to start something here? Use them if you like or pass by the dang post, not everyone is perfect around here likethey think they are!!!

I haven't posted on this board in WEEKS. When I finally did, you attacked. Why? All I asked is what constitutes a serving size in these recipes. So is it just ME that's not allowed to ask questions or does your sensorship include everyone else? You really need to clarify this.
If the recipe didn't include the information I asked about, then you could have just said so. For all I knew, you might have inadvertently missed it when you did cut & paste. That has been known to happen.
Instead, you were just plain mean. Don't ever accuse me of drumming up drama again...I would say you wear that crown very well.

Ann,
If you have any issues with me you need to address them with me privately.
Also,name calling is completely unnecessary & I would appreciate it if you would refrain from doing so. Also I was not attacking anyone stating a point, this is all I'm saying about this on the boards, and if you want to further the conversation you know my email. Totally ridiculous.
Thanks Melinda

If I have issues with you? I asked a simple question. So address you privately? Oh heck no...I don't trust you enough to do that. I want it all on the up & up. And what name calling? I challenge you to show me anywhere that I called you a name.
I sure wish the old Melinda would come back. The one that was sweet & kind & helpful. I don't much like this one.

I have to agree with Ann. As someone who comes on this board talking about how this board needs to get back to being supportive and understanding, you then have the nerve to verbally attack her, accusing her of stirring up drama, when she asked a legitimate question regarding something she didn't understand. How is that being supportive and understanding. That to me is hypocritical. This coming from a "support" group leader.
I thought we were all adults!!!! It's posts like this that make regulars not want to frequent the boards and that will scare the newbies out. Hell, if I was a newbie, I'd be afraid to ask questions too, for fear that you'd think they were drama starting! Sheesh!!!

Good am Ann,
You'll find varied responses on serving sizes. Not all recipes will be accurate or even list the serving sizes when homemade. Many of store bought items will. There has been a lot of discussion recently making headlines across the world talking about labels & what's truly in things. If you are making dishes yourself, you can subsitute items for healither, lower in sugar, sodium, carbs etc in almost all of them.
You might consider talking with your nutritionist and/or surgeon's office. Ours has a wonderful handbook that discusses serving size & portion control. In addition, there are many books & web sites that can offer suggestions on serving size.
All best!
