1 cup cooked white rice is about 45g carbs, and one cup cooked brown rice is about 40g carbs.

1 ounce cooked boneless skinless chicken breast is about 8-9g protein, 1g fat, zero carbs.

nutritiondata.com is a pretty good source for this type of information

At many book stores there are many books that now break down the Carb,Protein,Fat and sodium grams of tons of foods. They even have the precooked and post cooked amounts in grams. These books are very cheap and have tons of great info in them. They even break down by ounces and cups or table spoons of whatever it is you wanna eat or drink. Grab one of these books brother it is a good place to start.
