The reason for keeping a food diary is to let yourself know what goes in your mouth every day of the week. People adopt unhealthy habits that they become accustomed to and forget how much bad food they actually consume. Its time to be honest with yourself, without keeping a food diary you are likely to miss some vital information about yourself. It may seem like a tedious task but it will only take you a couple of minutes each day at the most.
Doing so will uncover your strengths and weaknesses.
Be patient and fill in your food diary a day at a time. The more accurate it is the more you will get from it.
Carry your food diary around with you everywhere you go for the next seven days and fill it in as you go about your business.
Below are some tips of how to describe how you feel after each meal. The window is from a few minutes to a few hours after each meal.
Different responses
Feel satisfied
Feel full but comfortable
Have renewed energy
If you get any of the above responses and you are progressing with weight loss and reducing fat you are on to a winner.
But on the other hand if you are experiencing any of the descriptions below:
Feel full but still hungry
Have cravings
Feel tired
Feel bloated
You will need to adjust your ratios or eliminate problem foods.
Even if you are progressing with fat loss and your weight is coming down your body obviously is not running at its optimum level. Keep experimenting and see what works best for you.
