Part of my daily routine is to write down everything I eat and the calories so I can keep track of what I am putting into my system.  It has really helped me to stop overeating and take a good look at all the unhealthy foods I have been eating.  It also makes you more aware of how many calories some of things we eat actually have - wow, some of foods have enormous amounts of unhealthy calories.
