I'm getting SO TIRED of seeing people say this. I've always watched what I eat, it prevents me from putting string beans into my ear! I've noticed that most people say this when they don't measure and record, because people who DO measure and record say that's what they do.

I'm thinking " watching what I eat" means a half hearted attempt to cut back on stuff that works against weight loss goals without eliminating stuff or saving it for special occasions.

I don't "watch what I eat." I've stopped eating things that have stopped my progress in the past and started eating
amounts of foods that I've learned will advance my quest for health.

So how about you? Do you "watch what YOU eat?"

    it all depends on how you see "watching what you eat" as. I eat in smaller portions and according to how I workout plus when I'm hungry. It works for me. I hope that makes sense but we are all different.

    So... If we were on guard duty and it was your turn to go on watch, would you bring this same approach to language?


    Words in English can often have multiple meanings. Along with not declining, it's what makes the language so versatile. You can create subtle shades of meaning by simply rearranging the order of your words in a sentence (impossible in Latin).
