Hi Dan.. I have been on MFP for about 4 months. I log everything every day. I was just supposed to log for two weeks, but 4 months later I find that logging helps me stay mindful and aware of everything I eat through the day and weeks..

I am not trying to loose much weight (10 pounds) as I am trying to eat healthier and have a better relationship with food..

My best advice is to log everyday. As you get used to logging every day, it will become second nature. Actually I feel strange if I don't log in everyday.

I logged to see how many calories I was eating daily, then I setup my goals based on a baseline (BMR and activity level - exercise) in order to lose about 15 pounds. It was hard to find my numbers for the first month, but I did it and now I know what to do and what not to do.
