I don't anymore. but when I did, I would either bother weighing them raw or just believing the weight on the box. and when I was calorie restricting, I would then weigh also the not eaten parts 😆...

Yeah its a tough one - weighing them raw you get a lot of bone weight you don't eat, and with the ratio of bone to meat it's could be pretty close to 40:60. On average though meat, fish and poultry lose approximately 25% of their weight in cooking so I would say weigh cooked (after removing the meat off the bone) and multiply by 1.25 - it's not exact, it won't be perfect but there's not much else that could be closer other than removing the raw meat and weighing...... OR maybe one day take one averaged sized chicken wing, remove it's meat raw, and weigh, add that measurement to fatsecret and use that one multiplied by the number of wings you have each time (I know it's a regular for you 😝)

@yoyoyoh lol - I do similar. I weigh my bone in portion prior to cooking, so say 100g chicken thigh, input in to fatsecret, cook, wat, weigh the bones after eating, go back to fatsecret and deduct that off 🤣🥴 another idea Jaxanne

Thanks for the ideas, both of you 😊 I agree about the 25% loss of weight in cooking, so that helps. I think I'm more confused about the listings for wings on FatSecret. If I input grams of wings, instead of S/M/L, are they listing weight with bone or without? I guess the safer way is to add my own listing. Will need to locate accurate NI for the wings then 😅 I think I'm just allergic to so much extra effort 🤣🤣 *itching already*

there are pretty much 0 calories in the bones. how they (as far as I know), look for the calories, is to basically burn the food, to see how much heat it generates. basically, the raw weight is what is being used to count the calories. the weight you lose in cooking is the water, so calories remain the same. that's why, if you look at chicken thighs cooked vs. raw in fatsecret, the cooked should have more calories per gram, to compensate for the lost water weight.
