Is there any food you don't track?

I don't log veggies in their natural state hardly. It's usually like 5 calories or so and I end up leaving anywhere from 2-500 calories left at the end of the day. I log all fruit though because even my grapes are 105 calories. I try to log everything though!!

You must be eating almost NO vegetables, because the only 5 cal veggies that I can think of are mushrooms and celery. 3 oz (1 serving) of carrots, about 70 cals. 1 serving of broccoli is about 50 cals. Those 50 -70 cals here and there add up to a LOT of calories every day.

I thought I was logging every mouthful. I was not VERY strict about keeping at my 1 lb/week goal. (usually fell somewhere between that and lose 1/2lb/wk)

But I was fanatical about KNOWING what I put in my body. You can't make good decisions if you are not arming yourself with the truth.

Last week I was getting my morning coffee and snagged a piece of bread off of the free sample plate. And realized I do this everytime I get coffee at this shop (about 3x a week.) So after 9 months of tracking what I thought was everything. I realized I'm deceiving myself.

I didn't log sugar free lemon juice and some of the small portion veggies as well.

I log everything but crystal light.

my general rule is..... "If you bite it, write it"

I WRITE EVERYTHING & THE KITCHEN SINK! LOl!

I do not log lettucce,carrots and spinach. If I eat a garden salad I only log the dressing. I use to do Jenny Craig and those are free food on the menu,meaning that I can eat it without counting them for my daily goal of calories. Even thought I'm not doing Jenny Craig anymore I stick to my free vegetables for the day.

I try to keep track of every thing
