Hi bluespacker, do you mean like a calorie counter, I saw them do that on 'The Biggest Loser Australia' which I pick up through youtube and they have facilities now to keep an online journal to monitor calories. I've never done anything like this as I think that the best way of keeping the weight off is just to try and eat healthily and only indulge in the bad foods occasionaly rather than daily. A diet of processed or sugary food should be avoided as consistency is the key rather than yo yo dieting. The programme does show some really intersting facts though regarding the dreaded calories in foodstuffs one can underestimate such as an obscene amount of 8 spoonfuls of sugar in just one glass of coca cola. People should be more educated to avoid such empty calorific laden substances.

well i don't need to lose weight so i haven't done this but it sounds like a good idea if you do because we all eat more than we think - i just thought through what i ate yesterday. my first reply would have been three meals but actually there were also: a packet of crisps, an extra lunch (just a sandwich), lots of orange juice, some fruit, and i ate more what i had for dinner much later in the evening. that is practically the same again in terms of calories.

Most I should do this because I can be a 'mindless eater"! I will eat stuff doing the day and I won't realize just how much I eat or amount of what I ate. Then when I do I'm like "what was I thinking?" or "I shouldn't done that?". I also need to lose weight or least try to eat better! Not easy to do!


myLot reputation of 82/100. jb78000 (1707)  1 month ago

i don't really believe in dieting, although i suppose if you are eating a lot of stuff for no reason then perhaps you should stop doing that. however i think exercise and perhaps changing (but not necessarily reducing) what you eat is the answer.


myLot reputation of 97/100. thea09 (4403)  1 month ago

You'll be bigger than your rats soon if you carry on pigging out like that JB. Crisps are evil but the fruit was good.


myLot reputation of 82/100. jb78000 (1707)  1 month ago

if i don't do enough exercise the worst that has ever happened is i put on about 1/2 a stone which disappears as soon as i stop living on the sofa again. as i just said i do not believe in dieting. and crisps are fine as part of a balanced diet - you need some fat.


myLot reputation of 97/100. thea09 (4403)  1 month ago

It's been said enough that I don't know why it hasn't sunk in yet as its a fact 'dieting makes you fat'. People go round living on stupid packets of diet meals, lose some weight, go straight back to what they were eating before and put more on than they lost, then do it all again. People need to educated themselves about food. I'm like you jb, same weight for 30 years, but it drops if I'm sick then goes up to what it was.


myLot reputation of 82/100. jb78000 (1707)  1 month ago

i probably could get fat if i ate when i wasn't hungry (my granny was and i take after her in lots of other ways physically) as it is i just eat what i feel like when i feel hungry and don't spend all day obsessing about calories or something equally interesting. diets never seem to work for the people that do them. they are also an incredibly boring topic of conversation.

I do not do this at all. I have thought about doing it to try to keep track of my food intake also. I have a hard time when it comes to losing weight. I mainly eat what I want most of the time and try to exercise more.

Oh I should i should keep a food journal. I eat when I'm stressed sometimes. even though I've been losing weight. I've had a stressful life these days. I'm sad. I think a food journal can help you lose weight. I've kept one before. It did.


myLot reputation of 84/100. blue65packer (1863)   ranked 4 out of 803 in obesity  2 weeks ago

I keep a food journal online (caloriecounter.com) and I keep it for a good month or two - if I see a gain in weight or feel it, I guess. For me, I mainly use it for portion sizing. Once I get used to sizing the portions again - I back off from the calorie counter. You should try it- it's very effortless. Especially if you go online a lot anyway. It's free - google it! Good luck!
