so here is the info for what if u'd lke to add it to your list:

1 cup green peppers = 149 gr = 5.25 oz 1/2=2.63 , 1/4=1.31, 1/3=1.75

Actually the list does not give you any counts for carbs, it is only the translation from cup to oz measured. (and in between also mentions how many grams one cup weighs)
So I leave it to you to figure out what count for the carbs you use.
I made this list because I like measuring in weight better than measuring in cups, but since the lists on this site for example all use cups, I made it so you can still look up those carbcounts.
You still follow me ?

[edit] so for example the alfalfa :
1 cup alfalfa weighs 33 gr and this equals 1,2 oz
½ cup = 0,6 oz
¼ cup = 0,3 oz
1/3 cup = 0,4 oz

Thank you so much for this compilation. I was going nutts trying to figure out the cups and the carbs and the ounces ! LOL. I am going to print out your list and then print out the carb count list from atkins and just combine them to make the super list !! LOL

Soliwit, thank ever SO much for this info. This list is useful, not only for UK atkineers, but for europeans in general. I personally live in Spain and this is of great help!

Thanks again!

Question please, what would the weights be for veggies that are frozen?

Thanks

I would wait till they are defrosted and any excess water has drained off then use the weights as listed. If you prefer to use them frozen then maybe test one time by weighing the frozen lump , defrosting and then reweighing to see how different the weight works out and be able to guess likely unfrozen weight for future use.
