Weighing Food Question

So I'm a newbie - 3 weeks out today.  So far I've been measuring food based on tablespoons and cup, but it dawned on me that I should be using a scale.  So here begins the confusion....what food do I weigh vs measure and as far as meat & veggies, do I measure raw or cooked?

I weigh everything when it's in the form I'll eat it in. Cooked, prepared, whatever. This has worked for me!

Thank you!

I use a scale after I've cooked the food.  Further post-op when you're cooking from a recipe, I measure the ingredients with cups and measuring spoons.  

Thank you!

It depends on why you are measuring. If it is to track calories and protein, weighing is far, far more accurate. If you are just doing it to make sure the volume isn't too much for your new stomach, measuring cups will suffice.

Thanks! 

If it's liquid I use the measuring cup, but everything else I weigh.  I always go with the cooked form.

That's what I thought!  Thanks for the response.

No weight but volume for dense foods is important. The pouch does not care how heavy it is, but what is the volume.
