why is it so fucking hard? I literally just prep'd my food for the week to start my cut tomorrow and it took like 2 fucking hours. First thing that threw me off was trying to figure out the macros of cooked rice vs raw because the package only had the macros for raw. I'm such a noob :(
>>
this bait? you just add water to rice. guess what macros are in water?
>>

the rice absorbs water and therefore throws off the measurements of the rice you retard

hello newfag
>>
takes me 90 mins to make chicken broccoli and rice for 10 meals, including washing the dishes

half of that time is spent naruto sliding around the kitchen in my socks waiting for timers

what's the issue
>>
>>41357029

i guess my issue is wondering if everything has to be on the dot precise if im cutting? Like does each container have to have EXACTLY 120 grams of rice or can it be a rough estimate?
>>
What do you anons prep to eat?

>>41357062
nah doesn't need to. my meal preps have the same amount of rice each time because i use a rice cooker and always cook 2 1/2 cups of rice for the week. but the quantity of my chicken varies +/- 40g each week. i don't meal prep every single meal, just two meals a day, so i just eat extra or less for the other meals that day

just divide it evenly and mark down what this week's macros will be. cook 1470g of chicken over 8 meals? put as close to 180g of chicken in each container as you can then track for 180g of chicken that week.

Walmart has a food scale for $20. I use it for the chicken just cut it up and add/subtract pieces. It's like drugs, after a while you can just eyeball it.

>the rice absorbs water and therefore throws off the measurements of the rice you retard

You use the dry macros. The water doesnt add any macros, just nonnutrient water weight.

Use the dry macros and dry weight. Why measure the weight of the wet rice?

You are the retard.

>>41357784
not that guy but I assume you cook it and then want to put half a cup of rice into each meal.

Well now that half cup of cooked rice (Say you cooked 4 cups at once) is slightly bigger?

Idk even in this problem I'm smart enough to realize you just divide it into eighths but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>
>>41356958
I dont even care that I'm taking the bait this is making me fucking mad

>cook 3 cups of rice
>divide cooked rice into thirds
>Each third has the macros of one cup uncooked rice

It isn't fucking difficult you clapistani spastic

That works out to 15 minutes a day friendo
