Is there anything you don't bother to log?

I don't log splenda, seasonings other than salt (I track sodium), vegetables used as seasonings, or diet soda. I do track black coffee for the potassium.

I'm anal I log pretty much everything but i think I'm going to let up a bit. Did i really need to weigh my jalapeno before dumping it in my scrambled eggs?

Yes. TO THE EXACT 0.1 OF A GRAM. Or else FAILURE!

The only thing I'd add that I didn't notice anyone else say is a squeeze of lime juice. I don't log lime juice that I use to season things.

I don't log water but I do log everything else I eat.. even if I take a bite of a snack my son has I try to calculate how many calories it may have. I have been made fun of for logging a single almond or single m&m but it just works for me

not everyone is the same and I don't have expectations for what others should be doing

I don't log seasonings, or hot sauce. If I eat something Like one pretzel to taste them I don't log it.

My logs are only approximate as many of the foods I consume in Japan aren't correctly setup in the database and I haven't put in any effort into fixing that. So I clearly an missing the small stuff. Still I'm losing fat so there isn't any point in worrying about it.

diet sodas, or any drink that's 10 calories or less, like diet snapple. i sometimes add dipping sauce

I don't log anything that has no calories in it. ( diet soda, vinegar, herbs, etc) I don't log salt (not concerned with sodium intake) and instead sugar I use truvia but I don't log it.
I used to not log ketchup but it can add up so I log that and other condiments.
No water, since I know I wouldn't keep up with it
For some reason I log coffee even though it's only 5 calories.
Other than that I log everything and try to be as accurate as possible, down to a gram.

I don't generally log my drinks (water, Iced or hot tea that is clear and unsweetened or 1 can of diet pepsi a day) because they are calorie free.. unless I have a wedge of fresh lemon in my water or tea and even still that's next to nothing. mustard, ketchup, seasonings

I do not log everything either. I try to leave a couple hundred calories on the table every day (generally, I don't eat back my exercise calories), so that gives me a little wiggle room to not log every tiny thing.

strawberryromper · August 2016

I don't log diet drinks, mustard, spices, gum, water, or cooking spray (which I rarely use).

subakwa · August 2016

I log most things except spices and condiments, or "zero cal" stuff like water, diet pop and black coffee. Some stuff I guess and try to overestimate to give myself wiggle room for the bits I miss.

For example, on holiday (vacation) I bought pitta breads and made little pizzas on the BBQ. This being Northern Cyprus nothing had calories on the packets so it was a case of worst case guessing to get a ballpark, rather than weigh and log in detail.

Spices. Talk about majoring in the minors.

Espresso and squash, for some reason. I drink pints and pints of squash a day, but have never logged it. Even though it probably has more calories than some things I do log.
Also I try to avoid logging accidental exercise. For example, if I walk to the shops and my fitbit logs it as a walk, I will avoid putting it into MFP unless I *really* need the calories. Just seems bad to be counting everyday things as exercise.
