Pasta Question

Is the nutritional content for pasta before or after its cooked.I cooked up two batches of pasta salad for my lunches this week. I put two cups of uncooked pasta in the pot,and after it cooked each bowl got a cup and a half of cooked pasta. When I add the recpie to mfp (their database is accurate with the box for this pasta) Should I enter a cup,which is what each batch would have got uncooked,or a cup and a half.

it should say on the box. If not, http://www.recipetips.com/kitchen-tips/t--167/pasta-nutritional-facts.asp (or you can google "nutritional value, cooked pasta").0
