From the journal, it can be observed that, I had high intake of calories and proteins. I consumed significantly small amount of fiber. Most of the diets did not have water which is necessary for good health. Over the week I did not take enough fluids such as water. I can say that I have bad diet habits considering the kind of diets I had over the week. Most of my meals had high amounts of proteins and calories, but they lacked or had insufficiency of some other nutrients which are important for good health and proper functioning of the body. I need to improve on my budget and make sure I include all the nutrients in my meals because taking balanced diet is necessary for good health. There is need for improvement on my diet habits. I should include by checking the quantities of the elements of the foods in all my meals and ensuring proper and sufficient intake of all the necessary nutrient content.
