    Any tips on accurately tracking food when traveling and eating at unknown and unplanned locations?

    It will probably be impossible to weigh/measure your food. Some people take photos of their food so they can try to look it up when they get back to their hotel. You might also take photos of the names of the restaurants and search later for websites with calorie info.

    Good luck and enjoy yourself!

    @vivalavida82 - fun job! (dangerous, too) I just make a drink limit before I arrive, and then attempt an honest guess for the closest calories when logging meals I don't know and go on. Oh, and take a picture of your plate before you eat to help remember. Have fun!

    Yes for ECT - Barre class today.

    Yes x 3 for Wednesday
    Under in calories again! 25 min dog walk.

    Today I bought a variety pack of sugar free Werther's candies to keep at work. Hoping it will be a low calorie life-saver for when Halloween candy starts showing up every day.
