Thanks for your replies. I was wondering. I know it doesn't help me a whole lot to keep track of what I eat, etc, for weight control. I do the best I can each day... some days it just doesn't happen (eating) When I went to Disney recently, I ate at every buffet... and lost weight! If I had kept track (like family did on me) then I wouldn't have eaten nearly as much, and maybe not lost any weight?

Like I said, perhaps just thinking about the purpose of the journal, will help someone?
