Cran I am like you
Potatoes I usually weigh AFTER cooking b/c you are basically cooking only the water out of it (Im being very very generic here)
Chicken, always after.
Weigh 6 ounces before then cook it and eat it...
I can feel my stomach eating itself from starvation the meat shrinks so much.
On the meat package or even fitday, it will give you the 'cooked' option. That is how I track my protein either way.
