[quote=Anonymous]I too love to eat and drink.  I found tracking calories in (from food) and out (from exercise) key to losing 25 pounds.  I considered myself fairly knowledgeable about food and nutrition, but when I started tracking using Lose It, I discovered I was consuming a lot more calories than I thought.  Tracking them made me accountable and also allowed me to plan my calories.  For example, I'd skip never skip my workout Friday morning but I would skip the doughnut that my office has on Friday, because I knew I wanted to drink a beer and eat pizza that night.  I never felt like I was making a huge sacrifice when it came to good food and drink, just better informed choices about how to spend my calories.  Once I started tracking calories, it was relatively easy to lose the weight, although consistent exercise also was a key part of the weight loss for me because I wanted a higher daily calorie allowance.  I stopped counting calories after I lost the first 15 lbs because I felt like I had a better feel for it, but I'm considering tracking again because I'd like to lose another 5-10 lbs and I have stalled.[/quote]
