In order to become more aware of your diet and eating habits, please keep a food diary for seven consecutive days, starting today. Please list all foods and beverages, including calories, serving sizes, and number of servings.

 Highlight all fruits and vegetables consumed.

Choose a per day goal # of calories by using the BMR & activity level formula.

 Please list all of the foods and beverages, including calories, consumed for seven consecutive days. Don’t forget to include the total number of calories consumed for each day. Highlight the total calories consumed for the day and the goal # of calories, showing how well you met your goal # calories for the day. The total number of calories consumed per day is what determines weight gain, weight loss, or weight maintenance.

Men should never go below 1500 calories per day and women should never go below 1200 calories per day, as these are the lowest caloric intakes that provide the necessary nutrients the body needs.

Many food containers list the number of calories per serving and the number of servings per container, making it easy to calculate the number of calories consumed. If you don’t know the number of calories in the food consumed, go to www.my-calorie-counter (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. .com (a free site), and calculate the number of calories according to the serving size. You may also use Appendix A at the back of your textbook.
