grams grams grams - for everything! Seriously I thought this was ridiculous when I first started counting - thought it was obsessive, but you'd be amazed how much more accurate and how much more food you get sometimes when you use grams. Today I measured a cup of snow peas and then I thought hmmm...let's check the grams and I got to add so many more peas! But again the counts are different, I have found different numbers for avocado and so I estimate a little high, I go 2 cals per gram. So just use your best judgement. Oh btw I don't use grams for everything, literally, just when it makes sense. Obviously liquids use cups
