Up until about 1 year ago popcorn was considered a vegetable on the Healthy Solution program as long as it was air popped and without butter being added. It took 5 cups to equal one serving and each cup is 25 calories.
The program has actually deleted it from its list of vegetables. I would check with the clinic that you are attending to see what their policy is.
I do have some patients in maintenance that continue to count it. You just have to remember that it will be a higher calorie vegetable serving. |
