This little "trick" has really been helping with my motivation and choices around snacks in particular. I enter the food info before I eat it to see how it will effect my day and whether I really want it or I'm just FEELING like eating it. And a nice perk is that if I do choose to eat it, it's already on there and I see my new calories remaining so when I actually eat the thing there's a little psychological boost that makes it feel less like I'm using cals up.
Just thought I'd share - we can all use all the help we can get!!
