Ladyv1980 35 Posted February 16, 2016 When reading a Nutrition Facts label what exactly are you looking for what's considered bad/too much? Fat% Sugar% Calorie% Sodium% Carbohydrate% Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SnOwCrAsHeD 56 Posted February 16, 2016 (edited) Sugar under 10 grams per serving, high in Protein. I look for little else and target 50-75 grams of Protein per day. Lost nearly 85 lbs, and don't count calories (or fat) and don't exercise other then 1-2 miles walking/day. Down to 154 lbs today, 5'10" at six months out from sleeve. I ignore total carbs for the most part, just focus on sugar, but up to you! Be smart! Edited February 16, 2016 by SnOwCrAsHeD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted February 16, 2016 I generally look at serving size, Protein, and sugar. I look for a high Protein to sugar/carb ratio. I try to keep sugar low and under 10 grams (one digit). I also read the ingredient list. I look for a few natural ingredients (vs. a long list of additives) and avoid anything that lists high fructose corn Syrup.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cutwater 41 Posted February 17, 2016 I definitely avoid anything with High Fructose Corn Suryp, it's probably the worst ingredient out there. I'm looking at Protein levels, ho much or little sugar and total carbs per serving. I also weigh other nutritional benefits (like Fiber, Vitamins etc.) Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JacksdadShane 65 Posted February 17, 2016 First thing I my NUT told me to look at was Protein then carbs then fat. I look at calories last. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
