Not exactly. I glance at products I'm interested in. You won't find me stressing about the salt in my coco pops or whatever. But the amount of salt in cup-a-soup has put me off, and Tescos pasta (to eat on the go) is more of the GDA for calories (25%) than I feel comfortable with. I don't drink fizzy drinks regularly any more so it doesn't really bother me when I have a lot at once.

I used to with little success. Now I plan all of my meals using the food pyramid. I have lost 40 lbs so far.

I count carbs, but not by choice. I have to because of my diabetes. The last year or so I ignored watching my blood sugar and what I ate.

Went to the doctor last week and found out my blood sugar is 3 times normal. Back to rabbit food and Coke Zero for me.

No way! I hate all the emphasis -- BO-ring -- on "calories" and "carbs." I would never diet or eat diet food.

A little bit, sometimes. To GAIN though, not to lose. If there are two similar foods in the house but one has ten more calories, I'll eat that one. But it doesn't really seem to matter because I never seem to gain weight. I don't really care that much. Whatever. It's kind of neat being skinnier than everyone else, but they can't say I never try.

I check calories sometimes. Also, fat, sodium, and sugar. Many of the things I eat don't have nutritional info printed on them. For example, that peach I just ate.

Over the years, I've developed a fairly good idea of how many calories things have. I don't strictly count, but I definitely try to eat high calorie foods intentionally (do I really want this? how much do I really need?)

I try to. It's hard with things you make yourself.

Yeah, just so I know that I'm not over eating.

Sometimes. When I gain weight, which I have recently.

I watch the grams of fat.
I don't like the calories option - too confusing, or annoying when I want something.
Once I started doing that, I stopped eating certain things and replaced them with others.

Lost a bit of weight (in a good way) by dong that.

I believe 75g of fat is what an average person needs.

I don't eat much, so I don't really have to. I just try to stay away from the bad junk (especially those high in sodium).

I watch that stuff. I don't actively count it.
