Do you keep a food journal? What types of things do you track?
A few of the competitors in my weight loss group struggled with their weight loss this week. I'm want to encourage them in any way I can, offer tips, advice, etc. (Not that I am an expert or anything) I think a food journal is a great place to start. So what are your thoughts?
I found this article from Science Daily that says food journalling doubles weight loss. Has that been your experience?
Tracking definitely helped me until I found my groove as far as daily choices goes. I still track via pictures on my food diary. That way if I hit a stall or an unexpected number on the scale I can look back and see what might have impacted that.
ReplyDeleteAnd I've read a lot of articles and studies that say that journaling increases success.
While I am far from perfect, when I do "bite it and write it" I am very successful with the weight loss. When I wing it...well, not so successful!
