I would chart my weight vs calories taken in because I wanted to see how many calories I could take in and still lose the weight I wanted. Over time I saw patterns which helped me learn how I needed to lose weight. I saw that when I ate too little I didn’t lose much weight…and when I ate too much I wouldn’t either. I found my perfect caloric range and 60 pounds later I am happy I did. But this fits my personality type…and I would agree it’s not for everybody. You can take the fat guy out of the geek but you cant take the geek out of the fat guy. I guess it’s just the geek in me but I weighed everyday because I wanted data.
