Is the food diary a life long endeavor or does it ever stop?

    Well, every time I've ever stopped logging in my food, I've gained weight back. I think maybe it just depends on the person, though. Some people are disciplined enough to watch what they eat without the motivation of MFP. Maybe I'm just not one of them, though?

    It's a tool to get to know calories in food and as time passes, you will easily be able to count without using a programme. I just use it for fun. I don't need to type my food in anywhere to know how much I eat, I know all the calorie by heart and if you got a calculator then you technically have the same tools. But you can stop counting and stop typing foods in whenever you feel you have the same control without it. I feel like that, for me this is just like a cozy game and I like seeing the numbers on the screen :) But I have just got back into it after a few years not using anything like mfp, and I maintained and lost even more weight, so that's just up to you.
