I have been weighing my food for about 2 weeks now. It is more difficult to do a lot of the time, finding everything to keep up with and how to do it is turning out more than I anticipated. I have lost 8lbs down from 372 down to 364. Now I need to lose 29 lbs more to get back down to my low of 335. Found out Thursday I have to have another back surgery if insurance approves it, so I am now waiting on surgery on each leg and my back, please keep me in your prayers if you do that.

    Hope everything goes well. Yes weighing food makes huge difference, I recommend a ozeri touch scale it makes weighing food quick task.

    Good for you! Weighing food gets easier the longer you do it - the learning curve can be a little frustrating and time-consuming, but it will really pay off in the long run. :)

    I agree weighing my food has been key in my success. I don't feel like I have lost many pounds. I don't weigh myself. I do feel leaner and stronger. Works for me.

    Keep up the great work! Weighing and logging gets easier as you go, as most of us tend to eat the same foods quite frequently.

    Weighing food is definitely the way to go for accuracy. One extra upside to it is that you get better at estimating because you learn what portion sizes are, so when you are eating out or at someone's house it is easier to stick to a serving,
