Diet Analysis

My Diet Analysis

This is my average from both days on my 2 day blog. Overall I did well with calorie intake but I was very low in Vitamin D, Potassium, Fiber, and Water. I've had issues with Vitamin D so I expected that to be low as well as water because I didn't drink enough throughout the day. Now, that I can actually see how much I'm consuming and what nutrients I am getting I can more modify and see what I'm eating and how it will more affect me.

This is the full comparison from the 2 days I recorded my diet. According to the bar graph, the only thing that was more in the second day than the first was that I had more grains. I consumed no fruit at all which is totally awful. I also got only 1% Vitamin D on the second day and I really need to pay attention to that. But, since this I have started eating way more fruit salad and have fully switched to wheat bread. I have also begun drinking more water and noticing more portion control. This diet analysis tool really helped me realize what I eat and how it effects me. I can not see how much nutrients and fats and vitamins I am consuming. I am so much more aware of what I'm eating. A great start to a healthy journey.

My 2-Day Diet.....

Day One

An egg white omelet with cheese and bacon
 with a bowl of cocoa krispies with skim milk.

 The recording of my diet started off with an omelet and cereal. It would've been healthier but I was so tempted by the cocoa krispies. This was my busy day. Between classes, work, and clubs I was always doing something from 10:45 AM until 10:30 PM! Talk about crazy. But I honestly think that this meal made the start to my day more refreshing and energized instead of causing me to be tired throughout my day. 

 

Roasted chicken with mashed potatoes and a tossed
salad with caesar dressing and a cup of fruit punch.

 Lunch was just absolutely delicious.

I believe it was relatively healthy.

Between my small break this was a 

nice meal to give me some energy.

The food in the cafe wasn't bad at all

for lunch today.

       

 Stir-fry noodles with beef and string beans
 with a cup of orange-passion fruit juice.

My dinner was at the cafe again because I'm doing my

best to avoid food from the pub. These noodles were 

amazing. It was one of the best meals I've

encountered so far. I also love string beans so it

was a plus. I didn't finish the beef because it was 

dry but everything else was good. But, I did

start to notice that I had a lack of fruit and water.

Day Two

A ham sandwich with cheddar cheese and
 lettuce with a cup of brisk iced tea.



Dinner wasn't that tasty but I appreciated

the vegetables because I also love corn.

By the end of these two days I started

to realize that I really do lack important

nutrients and foods. I need to seriously

increase my intake of water and fruits.

It would definitely help establish a more

balanced diet.

Well today didn't start out well. I ended up skipping breakfast. My class started at 9:20 AM and didn't have time to eat until lunch. But when I got to lunch I wasn't too hungry. I ate a sandwich and had a cup of juice. I kept it really simple but still noticed I had no fruit.
