Just eat a 1/2 cup of brown sugar. Should be about the same. Let's see....I wonder if there are any fruits less appropriate for an LC WOE? Dates? Raisins? Dried blueberries?

I do not want to know where you get your bananas (or your brown sugar). 1c brown sugar is 141g carbs loose or 214g packed. 1c banana is 47g mashed or 31g sliced - about 1/4 the carbs per volume. > Let's see....I wonder if there are any fruits less appropriate for > an LC WOE? 1/2c sliced banana is an excellent source of potassium, and has only 15g carbs. Should be fine for someone on OWL or maintenance. > Dates? Raisins? Dried blueberries? Dates - 117g/cup (2-3x banana) Raisins - 108-123g/cup (2-3x banana) blueberries (raw) - 17g/cup (USDA doesn't have an entry for dried) The problem with your examples is that you listed two DRIED fruits to compare to one RAW fruit. Compare with other raw fruits next time. > 1/2c sliced banana is an excellent source of potassium, and has only > 15g carbs. Should be fine for someone on OWL or maintenance.

Compare with other raw fruits next time. Is it true that long-term LC eating causes one to lose one's sense of humor? Oh, and thanks for letting me know how to do LC.

Obviously. >Is it true that long-term LC eating causes one to lose one's sense of >humor? Judging by some of the respones in this newsgroup, that is definitely one of the first things to go. -- Emil >Judging by some of the respones in this newsgroup, that is definitely >one of the first things to go. > >-- > Emil Hey, that's NOT FUNNY!!!
