What things do you refuse to log?

matchbox_girl

Alcohol. Sounds ridiculous, I know, but if I logged my booze I would never be able to eat

ldrosophila

supplements.

Squidgrok

My omega 3 tablet which is apparently 10 calories

flatblade

I never thought of this as food--communion hosts and wine.

I would always log ketchup because I always thought it was fairly high in sugar?
I don't log the milk I have in tea because its not as much but if I have coffee I'll log the milk because its a lot more, not the coffee though.
I also don't always log oil I use for cooking though I admit I probably should even if I use barely any...
I also don't log spices or salt as I'm not really counting sodium or potassium. I look at the sodium value of all the foods I have without added salt and that's always a lot under so I don't feel bad about occasionally adding salt.
I don't log any teas as they're essentially 0 calories or sweeteners. I'd go crazy if I did.

I didn't know that about wine, that's very helpful Thank you! That ought to help in the future!

I don't log my strength training at all. I may start now that I have my HRM...but I don't log every rep of every set of anything. Cardio, I log.

I log alcohol up until I lose count lol oh dear that sounds awful but it is hard to keep count if you are at an event as such.

Whipped cream and vitamins. I refuse to buy into the notion that whipped cream is made of anything other than love, sunshine and unicorn farts. And those are calorie-free.

Earlier this evening I was closing out today's journal and wondered if people do log communion wafers.

There are, in fact entries.

thnat is hilarious!!!

I never log my alcohol. I go out with my friends maybe once or twice a month, and I just go and have a blast and don't worry about calories. I feel like if I did log them, they would make me feel bad about going out and I figure there's nothing wrong with a guilt free night on the town every once in awhile and I'm not going to try and log it and beat myself up over it.

mrsgeneric

If it goes in my mouth i log it..... Except taking a taste of something im cooking to c if its ok. I always log my gum lol!! I must b the only one

charismanoodles

Dried herbs, usually because I forget how much I add and I'm only cooking for 2 so I'm not very heavy handed on them.

Bootjockey

I log everything that has calories. And water.

I don't log water, or anything that's zero calories. I don't log gum or any pills, those are not what made me fat lol.

jennmodugno

Seasonings. I'm not worried about salt intake, and I don't really measure when I sprinkle some garlic powder or italian seasonings on a piece of chicken, so I just figure it's not a big deal. 5-10 calories isn't going to break my weight loss.

Andrew_peter

No cal drinks (water, diet coke, mio, etc), coffee/tea, vitamins.... that's about it. Still logging tbsp's of ketchup lol here

NanaWubbie

I don't log water. Other than that I log everything. It's the only way I can keep myself honest. There are things I hate to log, because it is painful for me emotionally....but that is another question, isn't it?

rocket_ace

sugar free jam, mustard, ketchup/relish sometimes, water.

petitegreek

I log everything (except vitamins and medicine)! I am anal when it comes to logging and I measure everything I eat.

travelgal59

WOW bootjockey you rock. Anyway back to subject. like many i dont log gum,teas w/o anything except splenda and tiny breath mints. started logging my indian buffet trips which caused me to go down to one plate plus dessert. Glad/sad i did that, i guess best to know what the damage is than not knowing.

StrongAndHealthyMommy

dont log anything 0 calories (including water)
dont log gum (usually I have one a week)
dont log all the hours I walk a day neither cleaning (I work bartending, so I walk a lot usually pretty fast)

When I log condiments like ketchup and pickle relish and tapenade, I generally log whatever 1 serving of it is, and try to stay close to that measurement without actually measuring.

So like, if I put ketchup on a veggie burger, I'm not first pouring that ketchup in a measuring spoon but "eyeballing" a tablespoon.
Pouring every condiment into a measuring thing feels wasteful and then I have to wash it etc.

volume77

Diet soda. I drink a ton of it. It has zero calories. All I'm counting is calories. Therefore...

this!!!

lseed87

things that are 0 calories all around. teas... that kind of stuff.

styledsky

Dried herbs, spices (except salt) and sugar-free cordial (at ~1cal/litre it's just make-work)

ellepribro

I wouldn't say I 'refuse' to log these things, but I don't log spices or gum. If I forget mustard or vinegar the odd time, I don't worry too much about that either.
I don't log any regular activities as exercise - such as cleaning, taking the stairs instead of an elevator, walking while grocery shopping.

dixiewhiskey

I usually don't log spices and seasoning unless its more than a tbsp.. soya sauce and extra ketchup are usually my main condiments in my log heh. I workout everyday so sometimes it just seems ridiculous to bother logging it when I know I haven't gone overboard.
