Sometimes I hate it because there are some foods that I really have to spend a lot of time on the internet searching calorie information for (my work lunches since they are provided for me and don't know the weights of and can only really guess the servings I eat, as well as goods from the bakery that can really vary from…

Cereal portions. I knew I ate more than the recommended portion but seeing 40g weighed out was depressing.

Sky Ferreira- Everything is Embarrassing

Live in Japan so more than half of my entries for anything packaged or eaten at a restaurant are in Japanese. I use quick calories a lot for anything that's packaged, not in the database on MFP, but I have the calorie information for. Calorie banking, basic meals and disorded eating habits.

custard and avocado

If it was a significant amount of calories in one day then I'll just leave it and accept it as a big day. If it was over by a reasonable amount and I didn't get back into it the day after and still ate poorly, I have a section in my food dairy for calorie banking and allocate calories from the overeating to days where I…

Diet soda. Obviously no weight loss from cutting it out but I would drink at least 2 cans everyday and I wanted to cut back on how much I was drinking. Being able to cut back on something that was a part of my daily diet made it easier for me to say no to going back for seconds, going back for one…

coffee, tea, gum, mints, pepper

Start the next day type of person, though in reality only start if I focus on a very specific goal in my diet rather than the whole.

You probably should be at more than 1200, but just curious, did you decide on 1600 calories on your own or were they calculated by MFP? The loss of 7lbs that quickly would have really been water weight, so don't worry too much about it fluctuating up and down like that, it's normal. Make sure you are eating the right…

Yes, you are currently in deficit and once you switch to maintenance you remove this deficit and should be eating more. How much all depends on your stats. When you reach your goal, go back to the MFP goal settings and adjust your settings, follow the suggested amount like you are for losing weight. After 2-3 weeks,…

I weigh daily. If you are scared to even weigh yourself to find out where you currently stand then it's probably not the best option for you though since the fluctuations might drive you nuts. Something like once a week would probably be better or maybe skip weighing yourself all together and keep track of your…

Bulgarian yoghurt

I eat a banana nearly everyday, dip them in Bulgarian yoghurt while I eat them, so good! I find if I eat 2 on a day I know I'll have a late lunch they'll keep me full but if they don't work for you then find something that does and appeals to you more

I used to practically inhale my food, still do sometimes if I'm not thinking about it. I wanted to slow down since I would eat so fast that I would go back for more thinking I actually needed more, regardless of how much I had actually eaten. I found with things like bread or cookies or chocolate, I would slow down if I…
