Although my measurements are probably not accurate, I do log everything I eat. I don't leave out sweets and stuff, I log them.

Okay I will try. Thanks.

My limit is currently set to half a pound a week.

So how do you correctly estimate them? Does a food scale necessarily guarantee accurate calorie counting? And then how would I do that for exercise?

I don't use a food scale. I mostly use the Lose It! app but I started using MFP because a friend recommended it. I just go off the calories that it says the food has. And I scan the bar codes of packaged foods.
