1) carbs/fibre. 2) energy crash

Eating to my meter

Lightweight scales for travelling
Hi, Can anyone recommend a lightweight digital food scale that I can keep in my bag (a rucksack). That weighs up to 1kg. And preferably can be reset to 0 (called a Tare scale I believe) while food is on it. Thank you! Lynda
