Well I'm looking forward to putting The Zone Diet into action. I spent this weekend shopping for a food scale and measuring cups. Thanks to Mark T for guiding me to the Taylor Nutritional Scale with the Tare capability. I got it at Target for about $38.00.
Buying a digital food scale is a great idea since it makes measuring
blocks fast and easy. Use “tare” to make it even easier, and you won’t
have to use math at all! Put your plate on the scale and hit the tare
button. It subtracts the weight of the plate and makes the scale read
zero. Measure out one of the items. Hit the tare button and again it
starts you at zero once more for the next item. Finally your plate will
be full of all your foods, all measured individually, but all on one
plate. This makes it easy and kind of fun!
I have been playing with the scale over the weekend by weighing everything I am eating. I believe this is going to be a great tool to eating right. I will keep you all posted....
