When do you log?

Pinkranger626

the way my life/scheudle works, I don't think pre logging would help me at all. I log after eating... I find that that's the most honest way for me. It also keeps me from obsessing over calories

I log as I go.

I'm not really sure what I'm going to do when I go back to school, as I have a school meal plan (no kitchen where I live). They post the menus and nutrition online, but what they say they will be serving is not always what they serve.

I've been logging in the morning. It seems to curb my temptation to eat things I hadn't already planned because I know it will throw my numbers out of whack.

When I was logging I logged everything in the morning and my entire day was planned out.

Probably a better strategy than mine...I've been logging right after each meal or at the end of the day. But I'm not doing half bad! :-) Whatever works, right?!

I pre-plan my dinners for a week and I log day-to-day around it. The rest I play by ear depending on what I feel like and how hungry I am. I always log before preparing the food though, that way I can adjust it according to what I have left, especially for supper and snacks.

At a min the day before, but usually a few days out so i can make sure that i have everything i will need....

I usually log when I finish eating, otherwise I don't always know what/how much I ate. I like to go for accuracy and I find that the only way I can be accurate is if I log right after I ate it.

I log the next days food during the week the night before so I know what I'm bringing to work. During the weekend, when I eat it. But usually if I change or add food, exercise, etc, I add it as the day progresses.

I log after I eat. Sometimes I forget and will catch up the next day, or I forget and say to hell with it and don't worry about it.

I log right when I get to my desk job w/ computer access. I plan out my day,as I know what I had for breakfast, what I packed for lunch/snacks, and depending on if I know in advance or not, know what I'm having for dinner, or know how many calories I have to "spend".

Planning ahead is probably the best thing I could do for myself. Takes the guesswork out.

I like to be proactive and log my food and exercise in the morning once I complete my workout. That way your day is already set up for you. It just depends what works best for you.

It varies... I log the whole day in the morning if I know what I am going to eat. Sometimes I log as I go. Sometimes I wait until night.

Sometimes I try to pre-log, but I change my mind often, so it usually doesn't work out.

I log as I go. I'm in a routine now so I don't have to worry too much about going over my calories. If I'm eating three things for lunch, I'll log each one as I eat it. Sounds tedious, but I always have my iPhone so it's easy. I'll add my post workout snack cause I plan it, so that I can see how much I will have eaten total at dinner time.

me too.

I would never be able to pre-log anything. We decide on meals on the fly. Not great for the macros, but it's not really a problem when it comes to calories.

I try to log my breakfast in the morning, my lunch after I eat it but if I'm out and about later in the day, sometimes I'm not able to log my dinner until the next morning.
