| According to the expanded food guide -- which you should get in a few
weeks miso soup (1 bowl) counts as 60 cal. There's no listing for
gazpacho. But be careful, some recipes add oil so you maybe should
account for that.

691.3 | chicken skin | SMURF::HAECK | Debby Haeck | Thu Jul 16 1992 17:38 | 5 |
| Sometimes I indulge myself and eat the chicken skin. I know, fifty
lashes with a wet noodle. Occasionally I try to be honest with myself
and record this, but seldom carry thru since I have no idea what the
exchanges would be. So, what would your guess be? An extra 1F? 2F?
xxxC?

| It can't be more than 100% fat.
If it's about a tablespoon in volume, it's 1 fat.
Use your eyeballs and estimate it...

| My WW maintenance book lists a sort of Turkey dinner - Turkey, baked or roasted,
with skin, stuffing, and gravy. When I subtract off the turkey, the stuffing,
and the gravy, leaving "skin", I get 80 calories. Now, I don't know if
WW means:
- Simply the fact that you roasted the turkey with the skin on adds
80 calories per 4 oz. serving
- The 4 oz. of turkey includes skin on the edges
- The 4 oz. of turkey includes an "end slice" with *lots* of skin
When my husband and I cook our DEC turkeys, I get *all* the skin, since he
has no interest in it. I don't *want* to know how much that adds up to! :-]

691.6 | y'know, this is pretty disgusting...*skin*? ick. | TLE::DBANG::carroll | a woman full of fire | Fri Jul 17 1992 22:08 | 17 |
| At very worst, you can assume the skin is 100% fat. Weigh it.
1 Tbs of fat weighs aprx 1/2 oz, and is equivalent to 3 Fa. Weigh
a large portion of skin, then estimate how much of it you actually
eat.
I don't believe that you are eating *that* much fat from just eating
a bit of skin with a slice of chicken or turkey, especially if the skin
is very thin and crispy (ie: most of the fat has been cooked out.)
If I were doing WW and I wanted to count the skin I would probably
say that the crispy skin on a large breast of broiled chicken (not the soft
fatty stuff, though - who wants to eat that anyway) would be 1-2Fa.
Me, I just eat the skin on occasion and don't worry about it. To each
their own.
D!

691.8 | WW (weight watcher) vegetable soup | ADISSW::HAECK | Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa! | Fri Aug 09 1996 22:08 | 7 |
| In the pamphlet that is given on the first week of the Freedom Plan
there is a recipe for vegetable soup. The first step is to cook the
chicken broth mix with the onion and garlic. Assuming the broth mix is
dry, then you are heating something with no liquid and no fat. And
then add the sliced vegetables, still no water. Is that right?
