Question from Casey

For my fiances pre-op diet was told to drink 5 carnation instant breakfasts a day plus 4 ounces of meat a day, and she wonders if you measure the 4 ounces as Raw or Cooked meat.< /p>

She would have posted this herself but she forgot to before she got offline. And since she has dial-up and i have cable, it'd be a hell of alot easier for me to take 10 seconds to do it with her on the phone, then the 45 mins it would take her off the phone.

Hi Sin I usually weigh my food before I cook it but after I remove bones, skin and fat. Honestly I have weighed it before and after cooking and there is not much of a difference IMHO.

Your question did give me pause though and so I searched on different calorie websites and it seems to be a mixed opinion. I say do whatever works. I just find it much easier to weigh it before as opposed to after.
