    I believe it depends on how serious you are about weight management. To log in everything you eat honestly will just put the odds in your favor. Life goes on 7 days a week and I want to live each day the best I can. I believe you should enjoy everything you do. Decide what kind of person that you want to be and be it 7 days a week.

    I count calories on the weekend, occasionally I will add my total for a meal and use the quick calories option if I'm on the road and can't sit there and take the time to look up every little thing to add. But I definitely count the calories on the weekend, weekends are the hardest eating wise for me.

    Yes. Every day. Even when I go way over. I refuse to be lazy about it. That's what got me here in the first place. I stop logging and next thing I know, I'm eating 6000 cals a day and pretending that I'm not gaining weight.

    I have logged everything I've eaten, or at least done a quick add calories, every day since I started logging. Weekend, weekday, doesn't matter. Not logging it doesn't mean I didn't eat it. That's just me though. I'm pretty much an "all or nothing" kinda girl

    I try to but honestly on the weekends is when my job is at its most demanding with 13+ hour days. I logged this past weekend but not the weekend before. My goal is to log everything all the time no matter what. It's a work in progress. I'm great about logging during the week and I'm not going crazy on the weekend with junkfood, I'm still eating good but I need to be logging it regardless.

    Every Day :) Even if I go over my calorie goal, I'll still track it.

    The weekends are the most important to log since I don't exercise. I log before I eat so I know if I *can* eat it.

    Not usually. Too hard with 2 kids. I always log during the week. But I don't go nuts over the weekend either.

    Yes, I log everything even something that has zero calories (like the coke zero I needed today to stay ahead of my game at work) Sometimes the weekends are even easier cause I can plan things ahead of time even more, like what's happening on Saturday if I'm going to dinner with my boyfriend ect.

    I sure do!! and if I splurge, I splurge. The only things I almost never do is A) log water intake (I drink more than a gallon a day) and B) complete my entries (just too lazy I guess, lol)

    Yeah..What, Hummmm, WHAT? THAT's when you better take notice. The weekend can do more damage than the whole week! When I got My weekends under control is when I got Myself under control, including eating. Why "Live" for the weekend, there's MAGIC in everyday!

    7 days. Don't do the "cheat day", "free day" thing. If I go a litle over on a meal/day which is rare, I still log it and let the elliptical punish me for it :smile:
