Data collection is pointless unless the data is analyzed and conclusions drawn.
That’s my opinion, anyway.
I track everything I eat and all exercise I perform, and I aggregate the overall numbers to determine the basic truth that, yes, I really should just follow the Weight Watchers plan as specified if I want to lose an average of about a pound a week.
That’s not telling me anything I don’t already know. That’s not helping me rethink and change my behaviors.
It’s time to drill in from the aggregate, high-level view and get into the daily details. Ask the hard questions.
Why did I eat that?
