fitday and measuring portions

Mothercooter · #1 September 10th, 2006, 01:19 PM

Should we measure all food raw? Or if we plug it into fit day as ...example..

1 cup cooked eggplant, fat added in cooking-
then should we measure after cooking since we put it in as cooked?

Just confused.

Thats tough. Spinach for instance is about a zillion times more cooked than fresh.

For Induction (Chapter 111, DANDR 2002, Induction Acceptable Foods list),

Quote:

If a vegetable such as spinach or tomato, cooks down significantly, it must be measured raw so as not to underestimate its carb count.

When you get to OWL and Pre-Maintenance the vegetables/fruits are measured according to their net carb amounts.
