Cooked vs uncooked weight… 🍝
Just a short tip today. This is a simple thing that can make a big difference. If you’re tracking calories then do be careful when tracking things like pasta, rice and other dry grains. Depending on the brand and type you may find the calorie info relates to cooked rather than uncooked weight.
The difference is very significant! If you’re logging the calories as 151 but you’re actually eating 351 cals that could have a significant impact on your progress. So be sure to look carefully at the label – usually they will state uncooked weight or cooked/ ‘as prepared’ weight – so be sure to track accordingly!

Very useful to know. Makes total sense, but I never thought about checking if the package says cooked or uncooked. I always assumed this would be cooked. I will pay more attention from now. Thanks Nancy!
