You know you're obsessed with weighing your food when....

Just did this today. I weighed everything for my salad at home this morning before leaving for work. However, I was in a hurry so I didn't cut my tomatoes. I just weighed four Campari tomatoes and threw them in there. So, when I got to work, I cut out the little tops where the stem was and yes, I weighed those and deducted the 3 grams!

Also, everyone in my family knows not to steal anything off my plate after I have weighed it out! LOL If I tracked it, I'm enjoying every bit of it!!

Let's hear yours!

    Haha nice.

    I once ended up skipping the dish I had spent an hour making because I forgot to weigh the sauce when I put it in the pan.

    I've only eaten pre-packaged food at work (with some exceptions) because I don't have a scale here and I wouldn't be making the food myself! Cafeteria meals? Hell no!

    When plans change and I hold back the tears because I've preloaded and had been looking forward to a counted treat all day.

    uuggghh this happens to me on the regular . I've meticulously filled out my diary, and my macros are even near perfect... and then my hubby comes trouncing in and says "uummm i don't feel like that for dinner, how about this", and his suggestion is usually tastier and more calorific than my original meal.

    These are all great!! Yes, the prelogging can backfire often!!
