Rice and pasta??

It stays the same but obviously 150g raw pasta or rice has more cals than 150g of cooked rice.

I weigh before cooking and cook mine in a separate pan to the rest of the family's.

Thanks for that. Its what I thought but started doubting myself lol

It's easy to do because it expands so much in cooking. I measured out/weighed my 2oz of spaghetti the other night and looked at it and thought "no way" so I bumped my portion to 4oz (I had the calories available so I figured why not). But when cooked - it was enough for three meals!! And yet the same # of calories as before cooking... well like I said, it's easy to figure it wrong because how much it expands in cooking.
