    I often forget to log coffee but the calories for a couple cups is negligible anyway.

    Good or bad I try to log everything. Even the times when I really don't want to see those numbers I log it anyways.

    When I was still logging, I didn't count vegetables unless I was close to my calorie limit.

    Now that I'm comfortable with fasting, I don't log anything, unless I know I'm going to eat something new or vastly different. I pretty much know what I can eat and still lose weight.

    Well I thought I was logging everything but seen your lists I realise I also don't log spices, herbs, salt, vinegar, and other tasty adds to food which have very low calories (eg tomato concentrate or broth cubes).
    For the rest I weigh and log....everything....which probably explains how I lost 6+ pounds in 3 weeks :-)

    i weigh and log everything. I often forget to log water though.

    I have to log everything, it helps keep me on track. I used to be a 'grazer', eating little amounts of lots of things. That is how i got fat, i wasnt aware of what i was actually taking in.. Now, i eat 3 meals a day, and 3 snacks, and log everything.

    I try to log seasoning and spices but its hard to find salt, pepper, paprika, garlic granules, turmeric etc on here. Plus I have some spices I brought back from Morocco that I cant even spell!

    I also never log the 1 cal spray that I use, I know it must be about 10 - 20 calories worth that I use with dinner but I hope its not a big difference, If I use oil I measure it in tablespoons and try and work out how much I have used as I know one tablespoon is about 150 cals

    I never log taste tests as I only ever try a tiny bit of food when cooking

    I never log Saturdays! I know its not right for everyone but for me I get best results by having one day off a week to relax :)

    I tend not to bother logging a clove of garlic, a few slices of cucumber, a single spring onion and herbs and spices.........oh, and anything I pick whilst walking round the garden, so the odd tomato, raspberry or strawberry here and there.

    I cant alway remember how many cups of tea I've had, I'm trying to restrict myself to just 2 cups a day so I drink more water.

    Non-stick cooking spray and gum! Also, when I order a burger at work at they serve it to me with the tiniest slice of tomato or lettuce. I am not going to sit there searching the database for it when I know at most it is 10 calories or so. Also, I will often forget to log diet soda. But everything else, I log. Including spices and tastes of anything.
