    kom ? You lost me there.

    A cup is about 240ml or 8 fl.oz it's largely an American thing and is a volume measure not mass / weight.

    I bought a cheap food scale and then a set of measuring cups

    It helped a lot since some things are portioned by weight and other by filing a cup.

    A cup of wet rice weighs more than a cup of dry rice

    So knowing which way you should measure matters

    Korn?

    I love them!!

    Psychosocial is a great workout song!

    As if it weren't complicated enough, a cup is measured differently for liquid and dry food. The liquid cup measures 8 ounces or 240ml

    Your certainly right about it not being easy. But I guess it's like anything else the more I use the app the easier it will be. Thanks for replying. Jenny
