It's true, writing things down is just part of the package, I'd definitely need to look back and see how the thing I'm eating affect me week to week!Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17513506761902989567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5361165394983545569.post-29668174654705338302011-06-28T11:27:41.254-04:002011-06-28T11:27:41.254-04:00I think the hardest part for me when I did food jo...I think the hardest part for me when I did food journals was actually going back to look at my habits or any trends. It's one thing to write it down but also to analyze the history to see what you did right or wrong. WW definitely helps me stay on track and yes I do go back and look at what I ate previously :)<br /><br />You could always track online at sparkpeople or livestrong like someone else suggested so that you almost always have access of it and don't need to buy a journal (though those cute ones are hard to resist!)Michellehttp://www.heylovedesigns.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5361165394983545569.post-24567757320760693972011-06-26T21:32:31.312-04:002011-06-26T21:32:31.312-04:00Thanks everyone for your comments!

I highly suggest at least trying it out to see if you notice any patterns you'd rather get rid of.Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04974235202743391870noreply@blogger.com
