    Yes, I track everything. A calorie is a calorie.

    if it goes in my mouth it gets logged. :)
  • I just joined MFP today, but I already started logging the huge salad that I had for dinner. I'm still trying to follow Dr. Fuhrmann's advice by including GBOMBS (Greens, Beans, Onions, Mushrooms, Berries, Seeds) in each one. Salad dressing can really add up in a hurry. I use balsamic vinegar with dijon mustard for extra kick. The homemade dressing saves me money and lots of sodium, which can also be in prepared dressings.

    My first day didn't go so well. I indulged in two bakery snacks that ate up all my exercise calories burned. I hope to do better tomorrow--and in the days after that.

    I used to measure/estimate my veggies and logged about 1100 cals. When I started weighing them I started logging 1350 without changing anything. Just sayin'

    Wait…you can EAT vegetables? I thought they were just for decoration? :bigsmile:

    I think that's parsley. It's not really good for anything else right?

    Turns out, it's plastic parsley. I wondered why it was so shiny. Doesn't taste very good, are you sure it's edible? :huh:
