FOR EXAMPLE:
Under the Meat List you will find seven foods ... each one having the same amount of protein, carbohydrate, fat and calories—
Meat and poultry (Beef, lamb, pork, liver, chicken)
Cold Cuts (Salami, minced ham, Bologna, liverwurst, luncheon loaf)
Frankfurter
Egg
Fish (Haddock, flounder, bass, salmon, tuna, crab, lobster, shrimp, clams, oysters, sardines)
Cheese (Cheddar type, cottage)
Peanut butter
If yours is the 1200 daily calorie diet ... and calls for 4 of the foods on the Meat List ... just select any 4 of the foods you wish (in the quantity indicated) without thinking about calories and you can’t go wrong. The calories have already been counted for you when the list was prepared.
