 Hi,

MFP indicates that the ribs I had tonight are 260 cals for 4 ounces.  Not sure what is intended on the 4 ounce part...  is it 4 ounces consumed or weigh out the 4 ounces including bones and such?  I am going to err on the side of caution and assume it is the later, but I really have no idea.

I don't think they expect you to eat the bones..haha All kidding aside, you are at goal, so if you want to eat a rib, eat one and 250cl sounds about right IMO

I recently have been on a ribs kick.  I bought a great big package at Costco, three big racks.  I baked  up two of them with lots of seasonings, cut them into individual pieces, and keep them stored in the fridge in a plastic bag.  It makes a very quick, high-protein low-carb meal, and I can eat three or four usually (they are very meaty).  I don't pull the meat off the bone and weigh it first, but I imagine it's 2-4 oz, without the bones.  Anyway that's how much I log when I eat them, depending on how much meat a piece had and how many pieces I ate.

 Thanks- still clueless which is right.  But, given that is the first time in over 9 months I have had them it is not a regular thing or trigger thing so I can just let it be!
