How many carbs in a sweet potatoe?

[badgergrl]

Ok. I eat sweet potatoes like it's going out of style. I can't seem to find out exactly how many carbs are in one, though. When I use the fitday numbers, they go by a cup cubed?? wtf is that?

So, I started weighing my potatoes to find out that I normally eat an 8 ozer.
I'm guessing that's probably a big potatoe, which means my fitday numbers are a little off. What does a normal potatoe weigh? How big are the ones you eat? And how many carbs are in one?

Thanks!

Hey! Where it says a cup you can click on the little arrow there and it lets you change the options... like i put mine as ? oz, raw... see if that helps For example today I had a 4 oz sweet potato and it says 27 carbs
