Yes Nick, I agree that a food diary is essential and for me personally so is keeping track of how many calories I eat per day.. If I go above 1000 -1200 calories per day I put on weight.
Good luck

oohh nick! If I kept a food diary today... I think it will be full! I haven't stopped eating... and it is because I have stopped recording.

You are right. It is really important to be honest with yourself and record everything.

Maybe you and I will both have a better week this week.

Hi Nick,

I totally agree with you 100% about keeping a food diary. I thought now that I am maintaining I would not bother, however a kilo has crept on over the last 2 weeks. We have had an exceptionally busy social life these last 2 weeks with much eating and drinking, however I do know if I am accountable at the end of each day to read just what I have put into my mouth, I think twice.

So to-day the diary is back in place on the kitchen bench.

We are heading off to Cairns for 2 weeks so I certainly don't need to be 1kg heavier before we begin.

I hope your weigh-in to-morrow gives you at least 0.5kg loss. That is certainly much better than nothing at all.
