I prefer to focus on intutive eating and health at every size. That is, I eat when I'm hungry, and stop when I'm not, and let my weight fall where it may. I'd rather focus on buying and eating healthy foods than buying "100-calorie packs" of garbage so that I can easily track my calorie intake.</p> I’m with Patrick on this one, I think that writing down everything you eat can bring obsession to the eating process.

I think writing everything down all the time borders on an obsessive complusive behavior. I have family members that struggle with O.C. so I don't make that comment lightly.</p> This is something I might do for a week at the most for awareness but as a lifestyle I think it’s better to replace your idle eating time with more activity or buy healthier foods to begin with.
