Bumping so my other MFP friends can read this too.

Subconciously, I think we all want to stay fat. LOL!
I'm guilty of more than 50% of this at some point or another, but I'll get there.
Question, going to start weighing food soon. I haven't yet. Should I weigh before or after cooking?
Right now, when I cook meat I just take the weight of the raw meat and divide it by its portions.0 -

It depends on what the database entries you are using are. Use the one consistent with whether cooked or raw. I would use the raw one though.0 -

I don't. I most definitely do not want to be fat.0 -
GREAT READ! I am quickly becoming a fan of that website.0

Awesome. WITH citations even.0

I'm stuck here:
"2.Many people don’t account for how the weight or volume of food changes after it’s been cooked. For instance, baked sweet potatoes can lose half of their weight in water after cooking. If you calculate your calorie intake based on the weight of raw sweet potatoes, you’ll be eating 100% more calories than you thought."
But if I weigh a potato and it was 300g before baking it, and I eat that same potato, how am I now eating more? The only way I can think he means is that if I log 300g of sweet potato AFTER I cooked it, but logged it using the raw sweet potato entry in the database. Is that what he mean?
Otherwise, I can see all o' it! thanks for the article0 -

Number 3: You burn less calories through daily movements.
This is a revalation for me, so true! Over the past few weeks I've upped my workouts and I'm training 5+ days a week. However I have found that when it comes to every day tasks i.e. taking the stairs instead of the elivator, popping across to the shop, getting up to go to a colleague's desk at work vs. dropping them an email...I've become sooo lazy! I'm just zapped of energy...but I always manage to pull it together for my big workouts as I actually enjoy them.
Interesting!0
