Log your food BEFORE you eat, not after

Logging food before you eat puts the calorie number in front of you at the exact moment you can still choose. That tiny pause lets you eat less, skip, or pick something smaller, while after-eating logging is just a late audit.

There is a tiny moment before every meal. You can still choose. You can eat it, eat less, or skip it. That moment is the whole game. When you log the food BEFORE you eat, the calorie number lands right there, while you can still act. Log AFTER you eat, and the same number is just a sad receipt. You cannot un-eat it. This is the Burnie method in one line: log first, decide second, eat last.
