(I just want to say I accidentally posted this in the main discussion boards rather than here and jeeeeeez people really hate on this program huh? Haha! Claws came out! "Why do you need stupid overpriced containers bla bla bla")
hi guys!
Today is my first day on the fix. I'm still awkwardly adjusting with my DIY containers. My kitchen is an explosion since my first meal was just kind of winging it trying to get in every color. Anyway, It actually turned out great. An asparagus goat cheese scramble in a whole wheat tortilla and melons and berries. (That's a pretty big tortilla, so I counted it as 2 yellows)
Anyyyyway, the whole point of this diet is NOT to calorie count or weigh, it's just to follow the portion parameters. so how have you guys been logging food? I'm in the 1300 calorie bracket, so I was thinking I could just log quick calories as 1700, so the negative calorie adjustment of the 21DF workout brings it down to 1300. But then there's the issue of my Fitbit also giving me a negative adjustment so I think my calories will show as being extremely low.
Just curious how you all log with this program.

Yes, people do seem to hate this program. That's why some of us make a point to tell people on the general boards about this group. It's unfortunate that some people think it's more important to tear people and their choices down than encourage and support others on their journey.
In the meantime, to answer your question, we have a thread about how to track foods:

Also, if you don't want to track here on MFP, you can always use the app which is very useful.0
