After seeing my daily total calorie intake I am a little surprised of how

little I actually eat. I feel that I already eat enough throughout the day but

this data shows that Im wrong. I am under the average calorie intakes. What

I also notice is that I tend to eat less when Im at school which is Monday and

Wednesdays. I have class the whole day from 7am to 9pm. I dont have much

time to eat a full meal because I have classes back to back. And that the

days I dont have school I eat more, so Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays

are the days I eat the most. I saved one day, which is Saturday for me to eat

healthy. On Saturdays, my routine a cup of coffee to go to work, then lunch I

sometimes eat a Caesar salad or a yogurt or fruits. Then, for dinner I

normally cook vegetables at home like broccoli, asparagus, or cabbage with

rice. Cooking at home is a lot healthier than eating out because its less

sodium.

What Ive learned from this project is that this projects breaks down of

all the food and calories that goes into my body. It makes me realize why I

cannot gain weight no matter what I eat. It is because I dont eat enough

even though I feel that I do. Eating healthy is very important because it

maintains your health in every aspect of life. It lowers risks from many

diseases such as heart diseases. This project made me to choose food more

wisely after seeing all the unhealthy food I feed my body. I learned that it is

very important to be healthy physically and mentally. Fitness also plays a big

role health.

One of my goal is to drink more water rather than green tea or coffee. I

tend to drink caffeinated drinks everyday. Not only that, I feel that I should

definitely cut back on fructose drinks such as soda and boba milk teas. Its

hard to resist not to drink those because I need sugar to keep me awake

throughout the day. Another goal is to take time to exercise during the week

no matter how busy or tired I am. That way, it can give me more energy

throughout the day. And last goal, I want to gain a little bit of weight. By that,

I would have to eat a little more food each meal. Not necessarily fast food,

but eat a bigger portion or at least eat breakfast. I notice that I dont eat

breakfast on the days I dont have school. Which I sleep in, and skips

breakfast.
