    I have been reading some blogs and message board conversations and have a question. It seems some people do not log fruit and vegetables in as they count them as zero calorie. I have been logging all of mine, which way is best do you think?

    Soooo.....if it takes 21 days to build a habit, (although it might be longer for ADHD peeps) my new goal is to consistently log for 21 days to make more of a habit by summer. I'm not to the meal plans in Always Hungry, i see that he says logging/tracking isn't necessary, but i'm such a visual person, i think i need to see what i'm eating.

    I personally have only ever been able to lose weight when logging and tracking, even before MFP I lost by keeping a notebook and logging all of my meals.

    I think that it depends on your particular dietary needs and plan you're following, I don't know what those people are hoping to achieve by selectively logging but in my experience the Kj from fruit and vegetables add quite significantly towards my allowance and fruit is really high in sugar so I have to monitor intake closely.

    1. Prelog all food. :)
    2. Go for a walk. :)
    3. Work out at gym for first time in weeks! It felt so good to be back and see my friends. I was able to do way more than I thought too. :)
    4. Drink a gallon of water so breastfeeding not impacted. :)
    5. No eating late.
    :|Realized this is impossible for now. Instead of eating junk I had some cheddar cheese and ham which satiated me.

    Had a really good day at the bank. I'm starting at my home branch tomorrow! I can't wait! I love so much about this bank and my branch. I think my two favorite things are the fact that the branch manager has the exact same personality as my best friend and my branch doesnt have a drive-thru!!!! I can't begin to tell you how much I hate being a new teller and having to deal with a drive-thru. It's really hard to get people to send in their ID's when they are out in a car. AND! I dont have to stand the whole day. I am also technically a CSR which means I can open accounts and things(I haven't learned that yet) but it means that I get to sit behind a desk. I know most people things that that is just normal life. Well, it's never been the normal life for me since I graduated high school. It's going to be really nice!

    I hope everyone is having a great night! The DH is demanding cuddle time. Lol

    ... a drive-thru bank?
    Does everything in the US gave a drive-thru version lol!!

    Ha! I admit I did miss my drive through banks when living in Belgium. Also, the bank would close during the day, which was most inconvenient. And trying to cash a check from the U.S. was an effort on their part...they don't have checkbooks there, even for personal use, as in if I wanted to send someone a check as a birthday gift. Do y'all have checks?

    Now you know why so many americans are so overweight!! We definitely are a country of lazy people who don't like to even get out of a car! Did you know that on Ash Wednesday, there was even a church that had a "drive-thru" version where you could get ashes on your forehead! I even thought to myself how ridicious that was. I guess the minister would meet you at the car window, say a prayer, and put ashes on your forehead!
