    I love looking at my friends diaries! Plus I really think it helps to log, makes us more mindful of what we are putting in out bodies.

    I am looking at this in the long term now. I have so little to go and I do not want to log what I am eating forever. So this month I am experimenting not logging food but logging all my exercise. I also put the scale away and letting the way I feel be my goal. I am also going to be gone soon on vacation for an entire month and want to try doing it without tracking so that I can be confident that I will not get into trouble on vacation. A couple of my male friends log all their food and one does not as he is gaining and not losing weight. The only time I get aggitated is when people ask for help and don't open up their diaries. No one can help without getting to see the whole picture. Oh and I also put the scale away. I will weigh one time before vacation on July 1st and then will not weigh in till September. I don't like to be too dependent on anything to stay healthy. If my tight pants fit comfortably, then it is all good.

    I stopped logging after they messed up my recent food entires. It's incredibly frustrating to have to search for the same things every day. I used to be able to log my day in a matter of seconds by selecting the items from my recent lists, now they are are full of things I've never eaten before and aren't changing . Stopped logging exercise because it doesn't post strength related things for your friends to see, so it just looks like I'm not working out.

    Hmm I asked the question why do people keep their diaries private and everyone freaked out... Guess I should have asked it like this.

    12 pounds to go... 12 pounds to go...

    My dairy isn't pretty sometimes, but it's always honest.

    My thoughts exactly, and hooray for those of you who have too many friends to be concerned about their logging.

    Everyone uses this site for different reasons, I don't log because I know how many calories my food is. I support other people and get good advice from my friends on here. I used to log daily but I must admit it got tedious for me considering I eat the same foods every day. But we're not all here to take advantage of gullible women (besides multistyleswife wouldn't like that). Add her she is awesome!

    Nope, haven't logged in years. Here's a news flash...not everyone here is trying to lose weight. The only reason I would log right now is protein, but I just estimate it based on when I used to log. Basically I just read the forums and it helps keep me motivated.

    Thanks for all the posts, guys. I guess there are more guys that log their food than I thought! Letting someone into your world enough to see what you eat can be a very personal thing to some people. It requires a level of transparency that some may be uncomfortable with. No matter what our food choices are we all have good and bad days. I don't look at other people's diaries to judge; I do it to grow and learn. I totally get it when someone uses the "quick add calories" tab to include calories they don't won't to explain to the rest of the world. I am cool with that, too. Happy logging to all you fitness pals!:heart::smile:
