I have found that not only writing every morsel I put in my mouth down on paper, hold me accountable. Another big help: if it isn't in the house, you can't eat it. Two pretty simple philosophies but they are the two that are helping me stick to it!

So what is your it? I think mine might be either potato chips or cheese (melted of course)! I guess you can tell I am a greasy eater and not a sweets fan.

not having food in the house works for me; its just living with other people doesn't really make that an option
(ESPECIALLY people who love to eat lol!)

I hate it when my SO orders pizza or brings it home. That's probably my "it."

documentation of everything eaten is the best, but i just have to get back to that. it's hard for me to keep track of everything because i am still a "picker"...and all that counts, too, of course!

Writing (all) of what I eat has been very helpful. Also I joined the slow eating challenge. This is really helping me because I tend to eat when I'm stressed. Naturally a fast eater, I tend to pack away a lot of food when I'm stressed.

So frustrated!
8 pounds in a month is pretty great. That is 2 pounds per week. That is the far-end of the range of what you can leave and keep it off.

recording activities and food intake
You should be able to add most of your foods by grams. If the only option is a teaspoon, there are 28 grams (dry) in a teaspoon.
