Diet Diary - Do You Keep One?

Here at That's Fit, we're constantly telling you what we think about things, but sometimes it's nice to know what you think. So from time to time, we'll ask you a question. Don't be afraid to speak up -- we love feedback.

When you're trying to lose weight, you've got to really get a grip on what you're eating, because many people find that they're consuming more calories than they estimated.

A diet diary can be a great tool for weight loss. It's also a big help when you're just trying to improve your eating habits. I know that I'm not one to keep a diet diary every single day -- I just find it too tedious. However, when I'm trying to lose weight or think my eating has gotten a little out of hand, I find it helpful to keep a diary for three to four days -- just long enough to review my habits and see where I need to make improvements. So I wonder ... do you keep a diet diary?
