I did, until I discovered that doing it is less efficient overall.
When writing my first draft, I often have very little idea how the whole thing is going to turn out. I simply don't have the big picture yet. If I spend time honing my sentences then, most of the editing time is wasted because I'd later rewrite them anyways.
