Would you log 3 grapes?

I'm really bad about logging stuff over the weekend and I just remembered I ate 3 grapes and I forgot to log them. It got me thinking, if other people out there go to that extreme to make sure they log everything. I also find myself avoiding little snacks just because I don't want to log them. For example like if a co-worker offers me a stick of gum, I'll say no for the sole reason of not wanting to log it :noway: .

    I would log the three grapes. It is really hard for me to lose weight so I track everything. This is a good question.

    I probably wouldn't but there are those that would. I do refuse food for the same reason though. :P

    Ha! Good question. When I was trying to lose, yes I would have logged the 3 grapes. Now that I am maintaining, probably not.

    Yep! Log everything for the best results! I even log the lemon I put in my water and 0 calorie sweetener, because some of them have a tiny amount of carbs.

    Completely irrelevant compared to the fact I'd have gum.

    I wouldn't log the grapes or the gum.

    Ate 2 slices of apple over the weekend, didn't log them.

    I log everything I can, because, like you said I don't want to waste time logging something small So I'm more opt to eat something larger and more often, healthier

    Yea, I would, but I am trying to decrease my daily sugar so it is important, for me, to log every last thing. Seems to be sugar hidden in EVERYTHING!

    I'd log the grapes but not the gum. I am pretty religious about logging, but I never log gum and I rarely log calorie free drinks. I've also said no to stuff because I wouldn't know how to log it.
    I think the point of MFP is to develop better habits and self-awareness, not to be stressed about every little thing that goes into your mouth. 3 grapes are not going to make or break you. I think the problem would be if you were going back for 3 grapes 20 times and didn't realize it.

    If I logged everything I licked I would be on this site 24/7

    If 10-15 calories really bother you that much, then log it.

    That's like logging condiments to me.
