2 Good Reasons to Bite and Write

Are you writing down what you eat? Maybe you should be. According to bite-writer and nutritionist Madelyn Fernstrom, keeping a “food diary”—whether it’s the old-fashioned pen and paper or an online spreadsheet version—can sometimes double your rate of weight loss.

How does keeping a record translate to diet success?
Makes you pay attention to every bite you eat (no selective memory here!)—better calorie monitoring.
Provides accountability to yourself—a major boost to focus and discipline, the basis of all successful plans.

If you’re just getting started with a weight-loss plan—of any type—an easy and effective tool is a food diary. Give it a try. You’ve got nothing to lose but extra pounds!
