    People think i'm already obsessed with calories and things! I don't log my tea with skimmed milk and sweetner, as i hardly ever actually drink it all! Its normally half, maybe 2/3rds of a cup i actually drink. i just give myself a 2-300 calories buffer to cover it. SO mfp says i need 1700 to get my 2lbs a week, so i eat around 14-1500, and dont log my tea.

    The only things I don't log are condiments and water. Everything else is in there, even diet coke, etc. If I don't know the nutrients/cals, I quick-add an overestimation.

    just saying, you should log condiments, especially if you use a lot. i use mustard or mayo with my sandwiches, but i measure it out and only use a serving size. a few tablespoons of mayo or ketchup can add up.
