I'm a stickler for tracking nutrient consumption (maybe because I'm OCD). Knowing that I'm tracking helps remind me not to overeat or eat poorly when the opportunity exists. It has also educated me on what is good and what is bad. Sometimes I'll go "wow, I can eat a ton of that" or othertimes "oh snit, that was twice the calories I thought and I'm still hungry".
I use myfitnesspal.com for my tracking.
