    It helps me to stay on track by logging in after each meal, then if I find I've overdone it, I still have plenty of time to "correct" myself. Hope this helps a little.

    I had NO idea how much I was actually consuming until I took the time to put down a typical meal for myself before MFP. It wasn't too terribly high in the calories, way more than now, but less than I expected. What really got me was how much sugar and carbs I was eating. OMG! It's a real eye opener. Feel free to add me :) I'd love to help!
