Turkey calories and fat etc...

Hi

Just wondering if anyone knows the calories, fat, sodium in 3oz/100g or white turkey meat. I am cooking one today for Thanksgiving and I did check out the food calculator on this site...but its confusing me. Too many different numbers. Help Please.

By my calculation, it looks like the white meat would be between 105-130 calories for a 3 oz serving along with approx 375 mg Sodium and about 2g fat. I hope that is close to correct. I really need to start looking at my Thanksgiving menu to see how hard I must work to enjoy that one delicious day. :ohwell:

Thanks :happy: for answering my question. I will use your calculations. We had a great Thanksgiving.

Glad that your Thanksgiving was nice. I am looking forward to ours in one way and kind of dreading it in other ways. It'll be fine. I just need to get prepared. I started putting in recipes today trying to see what the calorie count is roughly. I can modify the meal I cook to make it work.

I stayed under my calories and even had a small piece of pumpkin pie....but no dinner rolls (which i usually eat a few of) but my sodium was way up there. :blushing:

Edited to add I was just looking around the food calculator and noticed that I can put in my own calculated foods...duhhh so when I know I just ate 1/2 cup instead of taking someone elses 1 cup...i can edit mine and post it. Makes it more realistic to what I ate. I was doing approx when I couldn't find right amount....and always took to higher number.
