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. |
Bunny,
I am supposed to be eating 8oz chix per meal, and my trainer said "after" cooking very specifically, but damn I cooked up a LOT of chicken today and it doesnt Weigh anything!
I cooked 12 "5 oz portion" frozen breasts from Sams.. All of the breasts cut up FILL a 48oz/6 cup tupperware but it only came out to a weight of about 24oz!! Doesnt that seem odd?
I mean, visually its a LOT of chicken, but according to my scale it isnt much...
