| Oh... maybe it doesn't really matter - just count the mushrooms carbs? The fact my FitDay will be off is going to really annoy me though.

| Do you have a food scale? There are programms on the net you can down load or maybe use on the net to do things like this I have used fitday for all of my recipes. I find a unused day (like the next day) I add in all the ingredients as best I can - then I use my calculator for the portion size. And make a custom entry for the food. I do this with all frequently made dishes like spaghetti sauce, chili etc.

| Groovy, thanks! I ended up looking up Chicken Soup on FitDay and replacing the carb count per cup after a bit of math, and I'm going to be satisfied with that for this go. Next go I will measure.

| Take the chicken off the bone before you make your chicken stock. The chicken will retain its flavor & won't be stringy. Also add a bit of white vinegar to the pot before making the stock. The vinegar helps pull the marrow out of the bones giving you better flavor. Enjoy your soup!

| I use the PC version of FitDay which allows you to enter in all the ingredients of a recipe and it then does the nutritional stats. Then I can easily save it as a custom food. Not sure if the online version has this feature. If not, SparkPeople has a free recipe calculator. I find that the homemade soups have much different (better) stats than any of the pre-fab FitDay ones. I make chicken or turkey frame soup like yours a lot (vary the veggies and voila! different soup) and find it is a wonderful way to eat my veggies when its cold out.
