My wife just told me, in a Jeff Foxworthy-you might be a redneck sort of way--"If you are entering food, while you are eating, you might have a problem," like I have an addiction. Just because I like this site, and I want to see what the damages are or make sure I am getting it in right, and not forgetting something, geesh! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Haha I do the same thing so I must have a problem too! You know it's bad when you go to a restaurant with friends and you've got your face in an iPhone looking up info to decide on the most low cal thing to order!

    If you have a problem, I really have a problem, because I usually log before I eat anything ;).
  • I am regularly ..*putting a sea salt pita chip in my mouth right now* inputting calories as I consume them. I also do the whole 'should I eat this..no way psych!' entry and delete. Also I just noticed I've only eaten 500 calories today.
    I've never counted a calorie in my life before this so I'm trying not to be all crazy and start getting greedy with the calorie reduction and eat a piece of celery per day.

    Me, too! This whole MFP has COMPLETELY opened my eyes!

    :heart:
  • Haha!! That's funny... I always make my dinner, take it to the computer desk, log it in and then start eating it. It's a habit. :happy:
  • I always log while im eating it and i always look up food before i go to the restraunt. Im also having a couple drinks tommorrow so i have my whole food diary already done for tommorrow.
  • im cracking up over here!!!! just glad im not the only one doing ALLLL of these things! bahahah!!!!

    Maybe I need to take note from you guys! In the last two days I have been angered and overwhelmed by the calories I've consumed that I didn't look at beforehand.

    Waffle House and Tropical Smoothie *shakes head* I need to eat at home more. When I saw the calories in my smoothie I just finished, I got nauseous.

    I honestly think this is how we begin to memorize calories and what foods are good/bad for us! When I was consistently tracking foods in the moment I was more on target with my weight loss then when I sat down at the end of the day and tried to remember everything I put in my mouth! :o)

    Yeah, thats all I was doing, I made us both a salad with some grilled chicken on top, walked to the computer, and logged it in, while I was taking a bite, its just what I do
  • I do the same thing! I guess i have a problem too....

    hahahaha me too! I plan my food out for the next day and try to leave room for unforeseen circumstances. Like hollow leg syndrome. :laugh: If the protein is too low or the calories are too high, I move things around until the numbers are right.

    I think it's good to be disciplined - especially in the beginning of the weight loss journey. I try to log things during or right after I eat... cause it's easy to forget all the little things (like butter, etc.). Kudos to you for keeping such close track!

    As the saying goes.... "If you bite it, write it". Or, "if you lick it, Bic it". There are more... but that's all I can remember right now. :) LOL!

    If you're not being a bit crazy about it, then you're probably doing it wrong. Look at where being 'sane' got you!
  • i make sure to "try" and input most of my food after breakfast so that i know what im having when and i can plan my meals....its just easier having them planned and then i just make them when the time comes to eat:drinker:
