Your question was: Eating Corn on the cob during Nutrisystem?.

In the e-class today, the Dietitian said that one could occasionally use a small corn on the cob to replace 2 vegetable servings..

1/2 cup kernals = 1 carb or 2 (occasional) veggie servings..

Thanks for that info Pam! Even I didn't know we could occasionally sub in a small ear of corn for 2 vegies You're a wealth of information lady!!..

Thanks - I was hoping I wouldn't have to go thru the season without luscious fresh corn on the cob.

Jody..

Same here. DH is wanting me to buy some and I hated to miss out...

I just had an ear tonight....fresh from farmer's market and it was heaven! I have over 100 lbs to lose so counted as a carb. I also used some ICBINB. I wrapped the ear (after removing leaves) in wet paper towel and microwaved for 4 minutes. Yummy!..

Pam, what is an e-class? As a newbie, I haven't heard about these but am interested...

The e-classes are held in the Chat Room (the middle one from the Chat Room list) every Monday at noon Pacific time/3PM Eastern time. They are 1/2 hour question/answer sessions with the Dietitian. (There won't be a class next Monday due to the 4th of July holiday.).

You can view transcripts of the e-classes under the Dietitian's Corner here on the Discussion Board. When I first started the program in 2006, I read over 2 years' worth of past e-classes. This really helped me get started right..

You can go to SEARCH and type in e-class, filter under the Dietitian's Corner and you will get the transcripts...

Thank you!.

Lynn.

And the black mini poodles..

I've been microwaving two ears of corn with shucks on for five minutes. I wait a couple of minutes before shucking the ears since there is a lot of steam. I use a towel to prevent burning myself- the silks just fall off and it is delicious!..
