When counting calories, do you guys still count 75/25 ground beef as 75/25 if you drain the fat after cooking?

Thanks for any feedback.

    If you want the most accurate measurement, use a scale to measure how much fat you've drained. Also, you might not want to drain too much, you still need fats for your body to function!

    I know my body needs fat, but right now the 75/25 beef has too much for me. On a budget and need to buy cheaper meats.

    Thanks for the info!
