I'm great if I get a recipe from here or a site that says THM recipe. I love the pinterest or new recipes. Here's where I get lost.
I have a binder full of our 'old' recipes and I'd like to use them but don't know where they fall, S, E (no FP I'm sure). I just don't know how to know where they fall. Is there a good way to figure it out? Also, I thought I could just figure if it had more than 1 Tbs fat it was S but then I started worrying about crossover. Ahhh can someone come over and go through my recipes with me? LOL

At first, I just stuck to the recipes in the book and on Pinterest. Then I slowly started trying to figure it out. Many of my recipes unfortunately were Whole Grain Jane, so I am just replacing them with THM versions.
Since I am so visual, what helped for me was draw the little triangle diagrams all together on a sheet of paper, writing the appropriate notes:
S = > 5 g fat, <10 g carbs S Helper = > 5g fat, < 15g carbs E = < 5 g fat, > 10 g carbs (up to 45 g) FP = < 5g fat, < 10 g carbs Crossover = Tandem fuel
There also was a post on the forum someplace about a site where you can enter ingredients and it will give you the nutritional analysis...Anyone remember the name of it?

that is perfect both the site and the guide. Cause i have a lot of WW recipes I need to figure out also, but my dinners are mainly ok, just don't know where they go cause I don't ever keep the part about nutritional information for my binders. You ladies rock! I may be back with more questions but thanks a ton!

Another note... I know that like with the joseph pita's you can use them because the carbs are 8g but you can subtract the dietary fiber 4g to make them each only 4g carb. This is correct thinking, right? Can you do this with all types of carbs?

Yes, # carbs - # fiber = # net carbs

Could someone explain Pinerest to me? I have looked at it, but have no idea how to use it. I have seen some good looking dishes, but don't see the recipe.

Click on the picture of the recipe, then it will take you to another screen. It will say "website" on the top. Click on that to get to the recipe on the website that it came from
