Chicken??!?

[rubiks]

hi, just starting the diet and i wandering how many syns one plain chicken breast is on the veggie diet?? also how much i have to eat of it to be a HEXB!! thank you!!

As an HexB you are allowed 115g of raw chicken or 70g of cooked chicken. if you are synning then it's 5.5 for a 100g raw chicken on green but that's only for lean meat such as breast. It also says that 100g of cooked chicken without fat on green is 9 so don't really know which figures to go with here. Kinda confusing. Hope that helps though .

It's just because things weigh less when cooked as they lose a lot of water etc.

You cant really say how much "a" chicken breast is in syns as it depends entirely on the size of it, you need to weight it and then calculate it at 5.5 syns per 100g. The ones I use are usually about 200-250g each but I do like to get very large ones.
