How important is it to write down what I eat and keep an eating journal?
If you want to get the best results possible and really know exactly what you are doing and what’s working and what’s not, you really should write down what you are eating.
I was dieting recently and didn’t write down anything that I ate. After two weeks I had barely lost a pound and couldn’t figure out why. It was because I was being lazy and not writing it down or calculating it. When I finally did I realized that I was eating nearly six hundred calories a day more than I thought I was! You need to keep detailed records so that you know exactly what you are eating and so that you know what works and what doesn’t.
