Has anyone, out of curiousity, ever logged the foods you'd eat before? By before I mean before one started dieting, eating healthier, etc?
I did once on another site similar to this and I was at 3500 by lunch.

    Yeah on weekends I probably hit 5000. I had fast food morning, afternoon and dinner. Six pack of soda too. Craziness.

    I haven't been to Olive Garden since I started MFP because I logged over 2500 calories in one sitting there. Before MFP it was my favorite place to eat out!!

    Great post....glad we saw the light!!

    Calories went up after I starting keeping track of them. Realized I wasn't eating enough to gain muscle with all the exercise I was doing.
