Original Post by umneydurak:

Look at the package it has calories for dry weight. Measure how much you want, cook it, enjoy it, log in whatever weight gets you the calories were in the amount you ate.

Hi umneydurak,

Thanks for your reply.

So basically I put in the weight that gives the calories that it says for the dry weight on the package - is that right?

Ok, so just so I understand...

The %ages on the nutrition report relate to the % of calories you are getting from the fat/protein/carbs?

So when you are aiming for 20%-30% protein that's 20%-30% protein in terms of calories rather than by volume?

Or am I completely confused?

Thanks!

Foods does 1 ml = 1 gram? Apr 25 2009

You're right! I didn't think to check that this was all on Earth! :-)

by way of further explanation, I know that an earlier poster did covert 100ml to grams but since values on milk are listed in 100ml I thought it would be easier for people to have the value in grams, just because this website only allows you to put in serving values in grams not ml.

this way you just have to type in 103.5 grams into the serving values rather than having to recalculate all the values on the packaging...

Well, that's what I did anyway and how I came across this thread.

I know this is old but just to clear it all up...

1 gallon of milk is 3785.411 millilitre

1 gallon of milk weighs approximately 8.6 pounds

8.6 pounds is 3900.894 grams


so... (3900.894 grams / 3785.411 millilitres)*100 = 103.05

so... 100 ml of milk weighs 103.05 grams.


As some people have mentioned milk is slightly more dense than water so by volume it weighs a little more. But yes, it is roughly 1:1

Hope this helps some others now!
