Maybe the types of food are the problem and being able to show them exactly what I’m eating is very helpful. And if the stall continues, the first thing they ask me for is to review “what” I have been eating. Tracking on an app gives me the data I need to determine exactly what I need to meet my ratios or calorie goals. Believe me, this really helps when trying to work on the “why”…but that’s an entirely different post.Įach time I turn to my personal trainer or doctor complaining about a weight loss stall the first thing they ask me is, “are you tracking what you are eating.” Most of us do not realize how much we are eating on a daily basis. Combining that with journaling about my feelings at the time of eating or my mood surrounding my eating behavior can be beneficial to help me in reevaluating my eating habits and dietary choices.
So a food log combined with tracking my food can be helpful as well. Not only seeing what I eat but when I eat can be beneficial.

Until you learn how to best hit your ratios properly, tracking is the key. In fact, the first thing I recommend for anyone starting off their keto journey is to track their foods. And with the right APP like Cronometer or Carb Manager, your net carbs are already figured out for you on most foods and that’s super helpful! And most importantly for all of us on keto, net carbs. The advantage of an app is that it tracks portion sizes, food weights and measurements and/or calories are typically calculated for you. Writing down what you eat is like seeing a day’s worth of food laid out before you. You can identify your good habits (such as eating three daily meals and choosing healthy snacks) and your bad habits (such as unhealthy snacking). You can write it down on paper, track on a computer spreadsheet, take notes on your phone diet-tracking website or app.
