Haha..yeah stress is my middle name! Working full time at a med school, full time student and mother of two. I'm positive that's the MAIN reason I gained so much this past year. Trying my best now, to find my balance.

YIKES!

I stopped looking at the scale way before December. I only weighed myself about a week before I changed my eating habits. As of now, and I know it's wrong, but I weigh myself at the same time almost every night. I just keep seeing the scale creep up. I almost threw in the towel and joined weight watchers, in fear that I…

good to know. thanks!

This has really helped me though. Thanks to everyone that took the time to dissect my diet..lol! You guys are awesome.

@aridtarose the olive oil is typically in my recipes which I create then name...then log. That's probably why it's hard to break down my diary. Most of my food is from scratch and logged into my recipes.

I guess long story short here is...I need to weigh EVERYTHING and ditch the measuring cups. That seems to be the theme.

@CoffeeNCardio things like "clean chili" are my entered from scratch recipes that I named clean chili. For things like mozzarella or organic butter (etc) those I don't typically look up the brand.

@katiely95 the serving sizes you see that I posted are my premade measuring sizes my recipes. For example, my homemade pizza dough and homemade pizza sauce will serve 4. Thats the entire recipes contents split into 4 servings and Ill have like 1-1.5 of a serving... If that's what you meant?

@diannethegeek WOW. That's insane! I guess I am so use to the old Weight Watchers way of measuring things.

@ariditarose, I always measure all ingredients in recipes. But I don't weigh everything. Mostly use measuring cups and spoons.

I never weigh out fruits, nuts or butters. I only use measuring cups and measuring spoons.

I use measuring cups, measuring spoons and the food scale. The one slice thing maybe for the bread?

or maybe you can break it down for me..lol!!

Hmmm...think I opened it?? Not sure. Anyways...most of the meals you see on there are my own recipes entered. So I don't think you can see every ingredient... unless it allows you to click on them? Also, I never log water...but that is because I have my gallon bottle here that I just make sure to drink everyday. Other than…

@diannethegeek thanks. It's been since Jan 4th or 5th (new years resolution). Maybe I do just need more time.

how do I open my diary...then close it? I've never done that.

@SarcasmIsMyLoveLanguage don't really feel comfortable opening it publicly. But maybe I can take screen shots??? Let me give it a try.

Hey guys, I weigh everything. The only things I don't are whole fruits and pre measured items. But I really don't know what else I could be weighing incorrectly. Even my husband is baffled as he sees my efforts. I'm making an appointment with my Dr, but this isn't right. I've lost weight before through Weight Watchers,…

I can't see any chart from @auddii?

Nope, I use the withings fitness tracker which is hooked up to my fitness pal. I decided to not use my exercise calories. Maybe I should?

Yes! I measure everything and weigh meats and cheeses or anything I may question.
