For Mindfulness, I need to start recording everything I eat. Whatever passes my lips gets recorded. No judgment from me (I hope) just an honest account of what I eat, how much and approximately how many calories. Also what I drink although I usually only drink tea, coffee and of course water. Any exercise is also recorded with an estimate of calories burned.
