Logging Food in Advance - Who does it? How?

I do on some days. I just prep the food before hand, by meal and weigh it out.

Same for me; I re-plan every single day with some room for the unexpected! It's the only way I can stay on track and plan in some treats.

when I logged, that's exactly what I did. I don't find it OCD at all...I mean it's pretty normal to sit down and decide what you're going to eat for the week so that you can do the grocery shopping...from there, it was just a matter of deciding on what I was going to have on a particular day and logging it.

I do because of the accountability factor. Plus, if I'm debating on a morning cheat (usually donuts), I can factor that in and see how it will affect my whole day. If it's going to push me over, I can see that right away.

On the other side though, I'm not too crazy about keeping it accurate. If I do have a cheat, I just amend things and don't feel too badly about it as long as it fits into my goals.

I log most of my food in advance and leave 300ish calories in case something comes up.

Generally I make lunches for the week ahead of time. I log them first, then breakfast, and finally fill in snacks plus dinner to help meet my macros.

I do when I know exactly what I'm going to eat (usually Monday through Friday). If I'm unsure about how a future meal may effect my caloric intake, I might play with some submissions to help me decide on what I will eat.

On days like today (a very stressful day), pre-planning my meal is a big help. I can't think about anything else other than all the stuff that's going on.

When I get up in the morning I like to get through 2 bottles of water before I eat breakfast. This takes about an hour, so the last 2 days I've put my entire day worth of food into MFP before breakfast. I find it easier than when I was on WW and tracked as I ate because I would either not be able to have dinner, or I'd eat too much for the day. By putting it all in first thing in the morning I can see where my calories are at, space them out throughout the day, and play around with it to make sure I'm not too far under or over. Then as I make my way through the day I can adjust things if needed.

Logging certain things in advance has been a really great choice for me. I typically have one of about three things for breakfast, so the night before I just prep it (overnight oats) or don't (in which case I'll have the two other things I cook in the morning) and then when i'm hungry and not yet caffeinated I can make better choices. If I log as I go I tend to not have enough for dinner.

I do on days I know what I'm going to eat for the day. Most of my daytime eating is pretty similar... dinner and nighttime snack is where it gets a little murky, so logging up through lunch helps me see what I have available for dinner/snack.

I do! Every night I pre-log the next day's meals. I tend to eat the same things, so it's easy to "copy meal" to the next day. I'm not perfect, so I edit as needed. I don't pre-log if I'm going somewhere on the weekend and can't know what will be served, but most of the week I do it.

I log on Sundays all meals including snacks to meet my goal of 1500 knowing I will be adding to it as my adjustments come through up to Friday at dinner....that is typically up in the air, as is Saturday in general.

It's easy to ensure I have hit my macros that way and I can play with it a bit if I didn't. And it makes knowing what to take out of the freezer in the morning easy.

I do change if I want/need to...it's not set in stone...

Yes I do stick to it.

I think most of us have some kind of daily schedule to keep, so logging in advance is pretty easy and effective.
I always have my breakfast and lunch pre-made so I can grab and go to work. I log those either the night before or while eating breakfast at my desk. Either way, now I know how many calories I have left for the day and can plan my dinner and snacks more easily. I also think most of us have "go to" breakfast choices and we tend to know how many calories we start our day with... it sets you up for the rest of your day. I have one breakfast option that is lower cal that I use when I know I'm having a heavier dinner and one breakfast that is very healthy but also higher cal and eat this when I know I'll have a lighter dinner or lunch. Planning ahead makes a world of difference in staying on track, logging in advance is just another form of planning that gives you a visual. The only condition of this method is that you must go back and make adjustments to your log if you ate more or less.
I even log exercise in advance. It keeps me motivated and says.... YES, I will do THIS activity today for at least this amount of time! I don't want to have to change the goal I set in advance, so for me, this helps. But, you must have the ability to be honest with yourself. I guess this is true of logging in general. We should never be scared of logging honestly anyway. We are accountable only to ourselves here.

A few weeks ago when I used to track my food I always tracked my food for the next day the night before. That said, I don't think it actually helped one way or the other.

If I want a calorie dense food like a cookie or a pastry during the day, I pre-log what I expect to have for dinner and see how the cookie impacts my bottom line. If it's worth the consequences, I go ahead. Or I decide I don't want to "spend" that many calories that way, and don't. Or I decide to have something else for dinner.

I log my lunch, breakfast, and snacks as I prepare them the night before.
