I need some help clarify something...is the 4 cups of veggies and the 8oz of meat that I am supposed to take in daily the weight of the cooked amount we are to take in or the uncooked weight?

Uncooked.

LizRR has a few excellent vegetable measurement tables in her veggie purée thread. It is here: http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/idea...ie-purees.html


Ps I love the asparagus purée

I've seen this question over and over during the last two years lol...my entire Phase 1 was cooked protein as my coach and her regional rep said cooked. I think it's one of those Canadian/US differences but with cooked 8 oz protein I still considered myself 100% OP. If you have a coach, get it clarified.

I was also wondering if this is ok...I am used to eating 5 times a day...I split my day up and I did a Ip packet for breakfast, an Ip packet for midday, 4oz meat for lunch with 2cups of veggies an Ip packet mid afternoon and then 4oz for dinner with 2cups of veggies....is this ok????

My coach (who is also a Region Rep) said IP says "pre-cooked," which is kind if a translation from French issue. In English, pre-cooked means "cooked first". However at all of her trainings, the intention has always been to weigh RAW.

I believe this is where the confusion came in. Whoever did the translation didn't understand the meaning of "pre-cooked" and thought it meant "before cooking"!
