  • Hey OP, I'm in the same boat! I've been a lifelong vegetarian but now that I'm tracking my food, I'm noticing that my protein is about half of what mfp says it should be. It is hard to add it in!

    in Weighing pasta/spaghetti? Comment by Zewwy June 2016
  • But if you're making a big pot of pasta for your family, and you weigh it before, how do you know what portion for yourself? Do you take out a portion that weighs double what you want the uncooked portion to be?

  • I really don't know but I stopped adding it to my diary around that time, maybe a little earlier. Once my daughter was relying more on solid food I just didn't feel the same about breastfeeding or the calorie burn. So you could take it off or maybe estimate of you like. that might not help much, just wanted to share my…
