What's On Your Thursday Menu, RNYers?
Have I mentioned how happy I am when I log in and the menu post is up the first time I check? It gives me a little thrill every time. I'm easy to please.
Honestly I don't think I like any weird food combos - because I'm a picky eater to be frank. I don't think of myself as a picky eater, but I am, objectively speaking. Apparently I didn't read all of the post yesterday because, seriously, girl, PB and baloney sounds DIS-GUS-TING!

Day 3 of more protein than carbs - success! Even by a smidge counts. QUESTION - what do you feel to be an "acceptable" protein to carb ratio? Like when you look at a nutrition label where do you draw the line (when you're making good choices that is LOL)?

I don't fret carbs the way some do, so i don't have a ratio. But I use the 100/10 rule. For every 100 calories, something needs to have at least 10 grams of protein. Calories are still my primary focus.
