Anyone else have a hard time logging their dinner food?

If I eat at a restaurant or someone else's house, I 1) try to control my food intake to some reasonable degree because I want to lose weight, and 2) try to write down an estimate in the log. We ate over a rabbi's house recently, and they had bread bread bread and wine/grape juice a lot as part of their religious aspect of things (I'm not Jewish, so I pretty much ate everything that came along in order not to offend somehow since I really don't know all the ins and outs of the culture), plus a ton of appetizers and a bunch of stew and rice, and I courteously ate everything they gave me, then guessed the next day about how many pieces of nice challah bread I had and how many appetizers and whatever, and threw in extra calories so I wasn't fooling myself into thinking I had less than I had. Even if I am at some place where people cook for me, I feel like it's my personal responsibility to observe what I eat, use judgment about it, and then I personally try to write it down to the best of my ability. Otherwise it gets completely unhelpful to me to write down half a day's food and then to eat an additional one or two days' worth which I ignore, and then I wonder why I stay fat or gain weight!
