    Ode to Logging!

    Posts: 80 Member
    edited November 2024 in Goal: Maintaining Weight

    Logging is good
    Logging is smart
    Then again - it sucks a lot.

    Is it logging I hate,
    Or is it having to limit what I eat
    That drives me ape?

    I love not being fat anymore
    I can do so much more
    But it’s so very tough
    To keep it all off.

    Many people don’t need to log
    And maybe someday I’ll be free,
    In the meantime I’ll do my logging
    Each and every day. (Maybe...)

    :)

      It's a lifestyle change
      that you've noticed, I'm sure,
      You can never stop logging
      no matter the lure.

      Vigilant forever,
      although it's a chore
      Will keep your weight
      from becoming more. ;)

      We love your ode to the mfp log..
      Yes at times its a chore ...
      But logging keeps folly away from my door...
      And I know for one ....
      I'm glad I stuck with it ...
      As nothing compares to dropping two sizes :smile:


      Thanks for your ode, great idea :smiley:

      Lost weight before and stopped logging
      Gained the weight back, deserved a flogging
      Commited to fit
      Logging every bit
      It's a lifestyle change
      If you don't want to regain

      Not so great, but fun anyway, and wasted a few minutes of the last hour of work! It has been a very quiet day so the hours have gone by slowly!

      Whenever I stop logging
      I gain a pound a week
      Then back to MFP
      For the logging and healthy body I seek

      Oh logging - my focus! my goal!
      So key to my deficit soul.

      Now logging in maintenance still.
      Just boring, but time it does kill.

      Still logging it's been three long years.
      You'd think I'd have stopped from the sneers.
      But logging has kept me
      Still slim, so accept me
      I'm logging I'm not switching gears.

      i go back and forth on whether to log or not
      to do it for life seems like a broken thought
      then today i got on the scale
      and my very first thought was
      Oh hell!

      To log or not to log, there is no question!

      My apologies to W. Shakespeare

      Life is too short - not to log. :)

      I log, and know exactly how you feel. It does suck sometimes, but a necessity for me to hold myself accountable.

      It's logging that gives me focus
      weight loss is not hocus pocus
      It's calories in and calories out
      that's what logging is really about

      It's a journey not a destination
      A way out of my situation
      If weight loss is to be sure
      Then logging one must endure

      Log in the morning.
      Log at night.
      Log to continue
      My weight loss fight.

      I could just skip it
      But I'd be sad,
      And the pounds on the scale,
      Would make me mad.

      So I continue to log,
      Even cake and wine.
      For one day soon,
      I'll be looking real fine!

      Logging every plate
      Helps me self-regulate
      Losing all this weight
      Is definitely first rate!

      You guys are so great
      To share this with, mate
      Who'd know together
      An ode we'd create?

      Thanks again, KeepTheFaith...

      Today is day 839
      I still log every day when I dine
      The chicken, the fish, the tacos (delish!)
      Probably log till the day that I die!

      Pizza Chips and Rice
      So tempting to the spirit
      Logging gives balance

      Logging and blogging sure beats jogging.
      Though a drag
      And such a bore
      It keeps my weight from becoming more

      i do not find logging to be a chore,
      not a bore
      or something i abhor.
      it keeps me aware
      about that which i care.

      so it does not seem right,
      to put up a fight
      kicking and screaming
      and tears come a-streaming.
      Maybe for some,
      but for me there are none.

      :happy:

      I used to think logging was awful,
      That's back when I ate tons of waffles.
      Now I log every day,
      Even when I eat cake,
      To do anything else is unlawful.
