I cook everything in bulk & freeze my meals so I do use electronic scales, but then I dont really have to think day by day about my food choices. I sit down once a week & plan my meals ahead so all I have to do is glance at the list day by day & away I go. I find I obsess & worry more when I dont know the content of food! I am terrible at estimating

I do want to point out, though, that while we talk about anxiety and "swaycession" and stuff, we don't really know how it works. I personally think it''s a lot more down to that nameless feeling of happily checking things off a checklist and how that ALLEVIATES feelings of anxiety for those of us who are planners by nature. It's not the anxiety, it's not the obsessiveness, it's the control-freakishness. Thus, I still urge you guys to have extreme caution when measuring food and planning out meals to the perfect degree and stuff.
Guesstimating, accepting inaccuracy and having faith that good enough is gonna have to be good enough, and flying by seat of your pants = sways pink
Measuring food or any method of trying to control one's universe, and being happy it makes you less worried and anxious - I believe this sways blue. It's the control freakishness, NOT the anxiety. We may have more anxiety and thus be more control-freakish, but it's still the control freakishness and NOT the anxiety that is swaying.!!!

Tell me about your kitchen scale
I weigh things but I should add that before trying LE I was a macro counter purely for body composition goals and I know lots of macro counters. It's a perfectly healthy lifestyle when viewed objectively.
It's simply a tool to use.
So with that in mind, I'm well seasoned with counting my food and figuring out what I'm eating.
However with LE I'm not being as strict as what I usually am. I usually count everything but because I've been doing it so long, I can estimate most things now.
Usually I hit my macros to a T but doing LE I'm just keeping at near enough.
Works for me

Just not a fan of weighing the foods, gals. I don't recommend it.
If you're doing it already, up to you of course, but no one start weighing foods on LE Diet PLEASE!
