depends on how many meals your splitting your diet into. for six meals
35-40g of carb per meal should be enough for your weight.
3/4cup(cooked) should be about right.

I have 2 cups in a meal MAX. (cooked measurement)
Usually just the 1 cup.
1 cup = 240ml.
If you don't have the proper cup measuring utilities, then your standard (slim) tea cup usually equates to the same.

Don't do anything by half. If you love someone, love them with all your soul. When you go to work, work your ass off. When you hate someone, hate them until it hurts.

try only eating white rice after a workout, because when digesting it turns to sugar in your stomach. try eating brown rice instead its made from wheat

You are thinking of Turduckens- Turkeys that mated with ducks and laid eggs that hatched as chickens.

Truducken is a turkey stuffed with a duck, stuffed with chicken...
it has nothing to do with the mating or eggs of turkeys, chickens, or ducks
