Could you quantify your 50-100g carbs a day please? page

[Greenbeast]

I'm three weeks in and aiming for weight loss at the moment.
I'm trying to get an idea of what 50-100g of carbs actually looks like in terms of a few fruits/veggies.

Can some of you guys help me out here.

I think once i've got a few real world examples i can build a picture in my head for my day to day needs

Many thanks

Go use paleotrack.com and just play with menu ideas.
50-100g of vegetable carbs is a whole lot, but, fruit adds up quickly.

Foods List

I found this helpful. measure what you eat then look it up.

Just plug in your food intake in nutrition log ie. my fitnesspal and it tells you how much carbs there are in a serving. To answer your question certain fruits and veggies contain higher carbs than others. Bananas would be a higher carb fruit and sweet potato as well.

Cronometer works also.

Here's one day of carb content for me last week when I ate about 45g of carbs:

5 eggs: 2.2g carbs
300 grams chicken: 6.5g carbs
half a head of cauliflower: 20.9g carbs
1 cup shredded lettuce: 1g carbs
quarter of an onion: 6.2g carbs
medium zucchini: 7.5g carbs
crio bru: 1.4g carbs

(and an emphatic yes to cronometer, that's what i use)

thanks guys, yeah i'm aware of the various macro counter websites i just though some of you would have some example sets of food that you've consumed and counted already (as per palebluedots)

palebluedots, thanks that's great

Here's a day I had 36g carbs. Of all the food I ate, these were the only items that had any carbs in them:

Greek salad (lettuce, microscopic dose of feta cheese, olives, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions)
Garnet yam (0.2 of a medium yam, in other words, less than a quarter or about two or three small slices.)
1/2 avocado
Another salad that probably had lettuce, red peppers, onions, tomatoes and whatever else on it.

Here's a day where I had 46g carbs. These were the carby foods:
1 avocado
Spoonful of kefir cheese
lettuce
basil pesto (has pistachios)
dark chocolate (one "row" in a large bar)
One beer
1/2 tomato

Yes, I realize that when I say "carby foods" none of these are truly very carby at all.
