I went back and checked, I was going off 80/20. I usually measure precooked and eyeball the servings but I cook often. I don't like stuff sitting in the fridge for days
Just like heavyhitter said, never eyeball it. Always measure cooked. A food scale is only $20ish. Meat is good in the fridge for at least 5 days, even longer in the freezer. You may have a mental issue with it, but that doesn't mean it is a real issue. Personally, I cook 3 days worth of food at a time, but I always cook rice fresh.
Also, 8oz of cooked 80/20 is still 61g protein. if you take that measurement raw, it will cook down to about 6oz. These things make a difference. You even stated that diet is the most important thing, and you are right. But these are the basics. Sorry I sound a little harsh here, but I am just trying to help.
