I’m brand new here and have no idea what I’m doing! ? But I’m playing around on the app and figuring it out as I go. One thing I’ve not been able to find is how much of each thing do I need per day…how many proteins, carbs, etc…I’m trying to lose weight in addition to eating healthy. And is there a way to actually get a total of my daily meals on the app? Thanks for y’all’s help… sorry if I didn’t word things correctly, as I said, I’m just beginning this journey.
Hi, Amylee1970. You can find that information by clicking on the “Exchange View” button above your menu. The exchanges translate to the following approximate nutritional values:
1 carbohydrate exchange = 15 grams of carbohydrates + up to 3 grams of protein
1 protein exchange = 7 grams of protein + up to 5 grams of fat
1 fat exchange = 5 grams of fat
1 fruit exchange = 15 grams of carbohydrates
1 vegetable exchange = 5 grams of carbohydrates + up to 2 grams of protein
1 sweet exchange = up to 15 grams of carbohydrates + up to 5 grams of fat
1 free exchange = up to 5 grams of carbohydrates or up to 2 grams of protein or fat
