How do you interpret a 4oz piece of chicken (protein) - is it cooked or raw?
I'm fine for weighing either way but clearly a 4oz piece of cooked chicken weighed prob 5-6oz raw.
Thanks!

If you weigh it raw then log it raw. If you weigh it cooked then choose an entry that specifies it was cooked.

AS Lounmoun indicated, you'll find entries for both raw and cooked. So as long as you choose the appropriate entry, you're good either way.0

If you weigh it when it's raw, use a "raw weight" entry when you log it at that weight.
If you weigh it after it's cooked, use a "cooked weight" entry when you log it at that weight.0
