    sometimes i don't know what i'm eating yet... especially for dinner. So I usually log after. But i would rather log before!

    After. I weigh everything, and that means I wouldn't be able to pre-log unless I pre-make, and I'm just not that ambitious!. But I mentally plan ahead and always know more or less where I am. And if I go over, I try and throw in an extra workout. It won't hurt me, because after all Rule #1 is Cardio.

    Before, after or during. If it's something that is particularly high in calories, if I eat out, or when I have low calorie fast days I log before to portion out an appropriate serving for my calories. I log during quite often when I just grab an apple or something, but more often than not I log after, since I just eat until satisfied regardless of quantity.

    I believe that in anything you do, having a well laid out plan = success. When I log, I pre-log...I know exactly where I stand and let's just say I've never had to post anything about, "uh oh...no more calories for dinner...HALP!"

    I pre-log that way I know what little treat I have room for in my daily calorie intake.

    I do it as I go along. My appetite and mood often dictate what I will be eating and I often change my mind so it does no good to do it in advance.

    Mostly before because it helps me keep on track.

    Usually log the evening before. Adjust intraday as necessary.

    I always log before I eat, generally the night before. :)
