What I leave out of my diary

in Food and Nutrition
So I will admit. I don't log every bite.

Here are the items I skip:
1. stevia/calorie-free sweeteners
2. Tea (unless I add sugar)
3. The splash of almond milk in my tea (it is only a couple of teaspoons, considering that 1/4 of a cup is 10 calories...I think it is OK)
4. gum
5. vitamins (even the gummies)
6. cough syrup
7. lemon juice/lime juice/vinegar
8. most spices


Fess up, what is your diary missing?

    Alcohol on weekends..

    I log everything else, including alcohol during the weekdays.

    Oh and I guess I don't put all the spices in the recipe builder.. but I do count most of them too.

    Pretty much the same as OP with the exception of Stevia. I always log Stevia if I use it. :)

    I don't usually log how much butter I use or when I drink juice. I VERY rarely drink anything other than water.

    Black coffee, stevia, lightly used spices, gum.

    Pretty much the same.... don't always measure green veggies either. More of a guesstimate I suppose. . Then again its more about getting a general idea than an exact figure to me. I'll she the exact science things for when I need to fine tune things.

    I don't log vitamins, stevia or gum. I also don't usually log ketchup, mustard, A1, or hot sauce because I don't use very much.

    I don't log the vitamins I take in the morning, B12, C, and D. I'm always over on C even without logging that...it'd be crazy if I did!

    And sometimes... I eat something right at midnight before bed and don't log it. :-x But it's always something small and what I'd have room for from the day.

    Spices. I don't even add them to the recipes section [I tend to eyeball rather than measure] or taste test / "TASTE THIS!" bites. I'll log everything else.

    My guts hurting from laughing, this is hilarious! Figure I've burned at least 50 calories reading through all these posts, a number of them just cracked me up. Had to laugh at the one about not logging the guy he killed!!!

    I don't log stevia and tea anymore...also, sometimes at night I go into the kitchen and rummage around the cereal boxes. I don't log my nibbles from those, either. (but I usually always ahve calories left over in the day, so I figure it's okay).
