Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has tried not logging for a week or two to see how they did on thier own? Did you feel like you were able to stay within your calorie range without tracking what you ate and still see a loss? Or did you feel completly lost without having that visual to track what you were eating? Any feedback is appreciated! Thanks

    Haven't tried it yet, but I tend to keep a running track of calories in my head till I can log them. Staying aware of what I've eaten helps me.

    I did o.k. not logging when I went on vacation for a week, but it seemed I was mentally watching the calories. I have not been great at logging lately and it has me in a bit of a weight rut. I definitely need to start logging again.

    I only track when the scale isn't moving...

    When the scale is consistently going down I don't log anything... I still make healthy choices... When the scale stops moving I track !Everything!...

    I think if I could stay within my calorie range without tracking I wouldn't have ever needed to come to this sight. I met my goal quite a while ago, been logging for almost a year. It's good for me to stay accountable. Good luck

    I barely ever track (once in the last month) and I've been losing about 1.5/week consistently. I just try my best to eat healthy, and move on if I don't. And above all, I always get my workout in!

    I stopped tracking for about 6 months and continued to drop 1 - 2 lbs a week.

    I don't track calories and I've steadily been losing 1 lb per week.
