Re: ounces mean what?

the cream cheese I buy comes in an 8 ounce package. Just measure and cut into 4 equal slices if yours is the 8 ounce package. Hope this helps

Re: ounces mean what?

Doesn't the tub-style cream cheese have extra ingredients in it to give it that nice whipped consistency? Just a heads up to watch for possible stalls.

Re: ounces mean what?

My fav conversion table is this: http://joshmadison.com/software/convert/ It's small and does more or less everything instantly. I have it on my desktop and don't have to be logged on to the internet for it to work.

Before and after:

Completed: 1st set of buildings and mountains (Everest,M.Blanc & Kilimanjaro, twice); Tower Masts & Chimneys; More virtual buildings; Challenger's Choice x 2 (volcanos and mountains on Mars). Currently climbing: Mount Snowdon again: 416/475

Good suggestion, Attek
Always check the list of ingredients!!
It still amazes me how many innocent-looking products have nasty stuff like corn syrup/dextrose/other sugar aliases as well as transfats added to them.

Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

Re: ounces mean what?

That is so true.
I wanted to buy some salami snacks today, to have something legal to snack and when I checked the package it said that there's dextrose in it...bye bye salami.
there really are carbs in the most unexpected places (foods)
