Measuring does many things. First, it lets you know what you're doing wrong. Second, it helps you track progress. Third, it keeps you from making the same mistake for too long during the course of a week. Good point. Measuring does many things. First, it lets you know what you’re doing wrong.

Fun food and lots of beer is too tempting. I think that if I have a "slip" at this week's weigh-in, I'll start explicitly recording food again to reinforce my efforts. I mention this because I think that recording what I eat is a good way to get a real idea of how badly I'm going off track. It's easy to say "oh, another glass of wine won't hurt too badly" until you look at the other nights over the past week where you said the same thing. And at the same time, it encourages you savor those special treats even more as rewards for sticking to the plan. Keep going! It will remind me that I need to get to my goal, and then set a new one, not just drift off and regress.
