Literally had this convo with my husband. Had to walk away so I can bathe our daughter. Came back to him showing me this video. THANK

Thank you! Thank you thank you thank you! Finally bringing up the problem I’ve thought about constantly that no one else seems to hit on. The pain in the ass of trying to portion out raw food. Absolutely ridiculous and not possible. I’m going to trust you guys and especially given the way you both look! I know you know your shit

[happythoughts]

Thanks Marc... For the past week I've been doing research.... Cooked or raw cooked or raw... It was honestly heart breaking for the little time I thought I was going to have to weigh everything raw going forward lol no no, not today

[Daduu]

What about fish? I’m it shrinks lol but is it the same as meats?

If I'm by myself, I portion out steaks raw...but I think I'll change now. Make it easy!

So, for something like a casserole or pasta, I add the calories, fat, protein, carbs, and fiber together as a sum total of the entire dish. I then weight the cooking dish before I cook it. Then I weigh the entire thing post cooking (so I can subtract the weight of the cooking dish from the total to get the weight of the food). So, you have total for weight and macronutrients. I then weigh individual portions, which creates a ratio (because it's easier for me rather than just dividing out a certain number). So let's say you are eating a .39 pound portion of pasta when the entire pasta is 2 pounds with 2, 000 calories. x/.39 = 2, 000/2, which is the same as x = 1000*.39 = 390 calories. Always have a notepad and calculator in the kitchen, because rarely do foods ever work out so clean to be 2 pounds and 2000 calories.

"Bitch I need you to portion those out".... lol spit out my coffee.

What stack is the best to start my steroid transformation ?

[harleydewalt]

I it is definitely Italy more accurate to weigh raw....cuz if u take 2 8 oz breasts and u bake one for 40 mins and then u grill one for 1hr the grilled breast is gonna shrink down and weigh a whole lot less then the baked one but it will still have the same amount of macros in it...so Tht is why u weigh it raw

[markcarroll]

Didn't JOH tell his clients to measure raw

[jordanadams]

Typically with meats cooked will yield 75-80%. Meaning if you have 10 oz of chicken it will weigh 7.5-8 oz after cooking. I cook in bulk then just measure the % after. Meaning if I need 6 oz of chicken I'll multiply 6X.75 and get what I need. Hope that helps someone

[mrgoodbar]

It's a real simple answer to this you measure it how ur gonna consume it. If you eat it raw measure raw if you plan on eating it cooked measure it cooked

[entitiessoul]

Hell no that means more eating. imagine cutting your chicken into tiny pieces and try weighing that shit out to 8oz. Yeah fuck that and mamy are successful measuring meat uncooked.
