I meant to add earlier that I'm pretty sure the food logging is accurate as well. I do know that this is somewhere you can go off track without realizing it. I measure and/or weigh most of what I consume. For example, I know that my grapefruit this morning was half a large grapefruit. The first few days I weighed it before eating, then weighed the peel when done. It was almost perfectly a match for a large grapefruit on Fitday, so until we buy a new bag I use 1/2 a large. I do the same kind of thing with the bread I made. I'll put the recipe into my tracking program, weigh the result and then weigh the portion each morning. I still measure jams, oils, butter, condiments, etc. with measuring spoons. And I weigh the cheese blend before tossing it into my omelet. I know (for me) I need to do this, as although I seem to have minimized my craving for junk, I know I can still overeat good things as well.
