    I don't know what everyone does, but I track:

    calcium - for my bones
    fat and protein - to make sure I'm getting enough
    saturated fat, carbs and calories - to make sure I'm not getting too much

    I've changed it a few times. I used to track sodium, sugar and fiber, but I was always okay on those so dropped them.
