Ever try logging your entire day in the morning

I do it all the time, it helps me plan and with my grocery list as well. And if something changes, oh well, that is what the little - on the side is for.
I find that it takes care of the whole what am I going to eat question.
I also like being organized and when my husband asks what is for dinner, I tell hmi to look at my food diary.0 -
I do this for most weekdays (I never know what is going to happen on the weekends). It helps me to stay on track. I like having a plan. I also like that I can tweak things here and there to make sure I am hitting my macros.0

I think it's good to plan out my meals, so that I expect how many calories I'll eat that day. I always give myself a little wiggle room, though.0

I log the day before! Keeps me accountable and allows me to keep track of my macros. Plus, no worries about if I will go over/under calories, etc.0

I try to preplan my whole day. Sometimes I stick to it and sometimes I have to make changes as I go. I preplan more times than not.0

I always try and log my three main meals in the morning and then I know what's left over for snacks.
I've heard of people running out of calories before dinner, because they've snacked too much, so this works really well for me.
I actually get quite anxious if I have no idea what's for dinner! LOL
Sometimes I do even pre-log for several days, if I have a weekly meal plan in mind...0 -
I do it all the time..0

i usually log everything the night before. Sure I change stuff sometimes but usually I stick to it.0
-
I just started doing this, im logging for most of the next day the day before and it seems to help me stay on track easier0
-
When I get the chance I try to enter all my meals the night before. Works great for me! I leave some wiggle room for snacks.0
-
I do the same, sometimes have to adjust the dinner entry....0

I like to do that with my exercise. This way, I HAVE to go to my evening class or face the personal embarrassment of deleting it from my journal and seeing my calorie count get scewed. :grumble:0

I try my best to log my day ahead of time! Sometimes I have to make little changes, but it really helps me a lot.0
-
I always log the night before, and make changes if needed during the day.0

Oh wow! I have never done this. Where is the adventure? I eat small meals through out the day log them as soon as I can so I know how much I can eat at night. I usually have at least have half of my calories left for dinner and evening snacking. I have gotten pretty good at guessing how many calories I am eating before eating it, and like I did with Weight Watcher's and the point system, I have memorized a lot of calories in foods, so I can quickly add something in my head when making something or ordering something at a restaurant.0

I prefer to log my meals in the morning and then just log snacks as I have them.0

i do this every day because i go to school and as soon as i get out of school i go straight to work. i usually dont get home until 10pm so i dont have time to think about what to eat. i take all my food with me during the day0

I try to do this every day. Actually I do it the night before. I kept finding that I would eat something, the calories were fine, but then by the end of the day the fat and sugar were way in the red. This way I can play around a little bit and try to keep things even. Plus its helpful to know how many I have to spare with what I am already planning to eat.0

I log my day prior to Meet my daily goals, if I'm off then I can play around until I meet them! A lot easier to meet your goals if you haven't already eaten half of your day and it keeps me from eating the extras I'm offered at work daily!0

I just started doing this a couple of days ago but not logging the entire day; I do it up to lunch but I don't have it perfected as of yet - still figuring out the right foods.0
