5 September 2008 : New Scientist reports that photo food journals are the best for dieters
WATCHING what you eat really does help, at least if you do it through a camera lens. That's the conclusion of a study of dieters' eating habits comparing the effect of written food diaries with taking a snapshot of each meal.
The research by Lydia Zepeda and David Deal at the University of Wisconsin-Madison found the food journals provided powerful visual documentation of snack binges
and made people think about what they ate - before they ate it. Read the New Scientist article and then set up your food journal!
