In Mastering the Zone they have 1 1/4 cup of broccoli as one carb, but in Zone Meals in mins they have 4-5 cups (forget the exact amount at the moment?) as one carb block? Very confusing?

I am not sure if I should use fitday or the book for measuring. I know for packaged stuff fitday is a dream, but for other things it gets confusing. Fitday has for one cup of chopped steamed broccoli as one carb also.

I checked the dates the 2 books were published. Both in the same year 1997.
