The pasta thing really confuses me tbh, because in the book I have, (don't ask me the name or author, I'd have to look and my sister has it right now lol), the recipes all allow for a standard 75g dry weight portion of pasta...which is the standard portion. So what confuses me is, how come some books and places allow bigger portions and others say no more than, like above, 30g dry weight?
I guess in general it's okay either way cause I'm eating according to the book I have and I'm still losing weight sooo... everyones different and all that malarky lol!
Is there a way to work out the GI/GL of a pre-prepared food btw? My sister has some Belvita Breakfast Biscuits which I had a nibble on and they're delicious, but when I looked at the ingredients they contain 3.6% puffed rice and also rice flour and wheat flour...so I'm guessing that pretty much blows their GI/GL through the roof right?
