I go back and forth (and back and forth and then back again) on keeping a food log. But I have come to realized that is really does help me keep on track with my eating.
I really keeps me honest about what I am eating and makes it harder for me to forget when I slip up. So here I go again. I will be trying to log my food here everyday.
Some links on benefits of keeping a food journal
I am also trying to change my taste buds for sweet. I am cutting down the Splenda I add to coffee and tea. My diet soda comsumption is down too. I will have one here and there but not as many as I used to have. Ooooo more news. I brought my walking clothes today so I can walk after work today. I haven't done this for well over a week.
I will come back and edit this post to include the rest of my food for the day, but so far....

I keep track of all my food choices with FitDay. I really like it. It helps me to stay on track with my calories each day.
No matter what the method... I think that food journaling is a great strategy for success!
