1000 days

This is not a weight centric success story, but a health centered one. I have logged in everyday for 1000 days. To me the largest part of the battle is being accountable for what I eat. The good. The bad. The ugly. It's hard to log a food when fitness pal says its "high in sugar" or it will cost you 690 calories. However, what helped me remain accountable is understanding that even if I have a bad day, I can still make good choices for the other meals, days, and subsequent weeks. Although I don't have many friends attached to this account, I just felt like sharing this with someone.
Sure it's just the act of logging in, but logging in pushed me to change my eating habits for the better.

    Logging keeps you accountable, good or bad

    Great job!!! I agree- people will ask what I can't eat on my diet- I tell them I can eat whatever I want- I just have to log it! And MFP definitely helps to make food choices more healthy when you see just what you're eating!

    Yea, sometimes I'm tempted not to log something "bad", but WTH my body already knows what I put in it and it's to late to fool myself!
