    Sugar-free gum, pepper, and diet soda.

    I don't log in diet Coke, sugar-free cough drops (10 calories each), vitamins, or anything under 25 calories. I also don't long in doing silly dances while watching television, house cleaning, taking my dog outside in the back yard to do his business, occasional spurts of jumping jacks, etc. I think the calories that I burn but don't log in exceed the calories I eat but don't log in.

    Gum and tea. I do log mints because I go to town on those suckers and can rack up 50+ calories quick.

    I don't track most spices except garlic and cinnamon because I use a ton of those.

    And I go back and forth on whether or not I track added salt. Just depends on if I reminder.

    I do not log some exercises, especially weight training. I might make a quick note about it but am not worried about every little set/rep etc
    Do not log water.
    Do not log some cooking additives like oil, or veggie toppings just because I do not feel like looking them up. If I was trying to lose I would probably be a little more concerned.

    When I was losing I'd log anything with calories. Now I have loosened up a little. But just a little LOL. Don't always log condiments (mustard, ketchup, relish) and I don't always weigh low calorie items like salad ingredients. And will sometimes estimate on other things.

    But I think its different for me now because I am in maintenance and need to let myself approximate here & there.
    For me, personally, I never log the sugar-free squashes I use to get myself to drink enough water (I'm one of those useless people who doesn't like the taste of plain water). It's like, 5 calories a cup, but I know that if I start logging them, I'll be more conscious of the calories, then I'll start to drink less of it, and thus I won't get enough water. Which is bad.

    Anything you guys don't log? Or are you all really meticulous and log absolutely every last crumb?

    Diet soda with 0 calories, black coffee, mustard, salt, spices and mints so long as I only eat one or two to clean my breath. (If I eat more than 5, I log it because they're just candy that sweetens my breath at that point.)
