I am in such denial about my plan of attack for losing weight. I justify the things I do such as eating a bite of a candy bar and not recording it. Or telling myself " you don't have to record that, It's no big deal" and the more I keep telling myself that, the more I defeat my purpose of having a life without all this weight on it. So I am looking for people that has no problem telling the truth because the fact of the matter is " You shall no the truth and the truth will piss you off, but it will also, set you free.

    Whew! Thanks for the warning... I will definitely stay away from the truth then... :bigsmile:

    Maybe what you meant is that the truth will keep us on track to achieve our goals, whatever those goals happen to be? 'Cause I'll drink to that. :drinker:

    Think about it this way: whether you write it down in your food log or not, your body logs every single calorie you eat.

    Funny this topic came up. I just started logging the bites of food I sneak in.I keep track of what I had as quick calories (25-50 calories a bite depending on what it is) and a food note of what exactly I ate. :)
