    I don't log lettuce,but do log everything added,including dressing.Water,spices,tea,coffee,diet soda,.If eating out,take my own oil/ vinegar dressing ..... Always count olive oil,not the rice or red wine vinegar. Guess that is it.

    I don't log soy sauce (I'm not watching my sodium), hot sauce, mustard, spices. I would log the creamer though. I do log my coffee and diet drinks but it's more from habit than anything.

    Water, spices, etc I don't log.

    Occasionally if at the end of the day I see I'm 100 calories short, I'll grab a quick snack as I'm crawling into bed and not log it.

    Guilt-free, at least, though not completely calorie-free :p

    I log creamer, as it has calories. Same for ketchup and mayo. But I don't log mustard.

    See, I'll log condiments simply because of the sodium. While mustard is generally minuscule on calories, ketchup is about 15 to 20 per tablespoon, in addition to the sodium...but that is just me....

    I don't log spices, my multivitamin, or tea. I imagine that when I'm doing unlogged squats while waiting for my coffee, those are my basil calories.

    herbs and spices.
    I don't always log mustard or hot sauce. But I log all other condiments. Ketchup, ranch, honey mustard etc. all have plenty of calories.

    When I make bacon wrapped water chestnuts, I ony log 1/4 the marinade. I've tried weighing it before and after I've soaked the chestnuts in it to figure out the correct % to use, but it ends up weighing more after I've taken the chestnuts out. I guess the salt in the soy sauce and cooking causes water to come out of the water chestnuts into the marinade? - and yes, I froze and removed the bacon fat before the second weight.

    I log communion wine and wafer, using entries I found on MFP - 10 cal. total.

    I don't log diet drinks, hot sauce (unless I have a LOT of it), herbs and spices, and I don't accurately log tea and coffee, I put 4 cups a day which I think is about my average. Life's too short and I'm still losing weight :)

    I don't log anything that will be less than five calories. A half-leaf of lettuce on a sandwich, a paper-thin tomato slice on my morning egg, coffee (but I do log the creamer) and tea, a tiny taste of dinner as I'm cooking, a tablespoon of diced onion in a single serving of stir-fry.

    Black coffee (if I have a cappuccino I log the milk), tea, herbs and dry spices, vitamins. Oh and water, not an issue for me.

    I do log all ingredients in my recipes though, even if only 5 cals, because I've started to use the recipe tool as a sort of cookbook/reminder not to forget any ingredient in my dishes :)
