Food Diary

 I found that It's easier to measure how much healthy and unhealthy food  one is   eating by simply  using a food diary How to keep a food diary and  track of what you are eating for a length of time: Is about  writing down what you are eating  and  seeing a day’s worth of food laid out before you. You can pick out your good habits (such as eating three daily meals and choosing healthy snacks) and also looking at your bad habits (such as drinking sugary drinks and snacking  all day ).
How to track your eating habits:There are many different ways to keep track of what you eat. it is  suggested  that you write down the times you eat, like (shown in the Food diary  below) the foods you eat, portion sizes (more or less), and make notes about what you were doing or feeling at the time.
At the end of the day, review your food list (Food Diary) and ask your self  these questions:
To control hunger: have I eaten  three meals?Did I eat at least 5-7 servings each of fruits and veggies?Did I have some filling foods (such as water) with every meal or every snack?
To reduce calories: Did I have  smaller portions than my fist?  Have I kept cooked meat, chicken, fish or shellfish to three ounces per portion , that is the size of a deck of cards)?What trade-offs can I make to cut calories? (See next section, Goal 4: Make trade-offs to reduce how much fat and sugar you eat).Did I eat because   I was not hungry?If yes, what and how  was I feeling or doing that  has made me eat?

Weight Loss Guide Features

If an individual is overweight, it’s usually because that person is eating and drinking more calories than he/she needs. Losing weight - Getting started is designed to help you lose weight at a safe rate of 0.5kg to 1kg (1lb to 2lb) each week by sticking to a daily calorie allowance. For most men, this will mean consuming no more than 1,900kcal a day, and 1,400kcal for most women. If you go over your limit one day, don’t worry, we've got that covered. It simply means you’ll have to reduce your calorie intake the following days. For example, if you're a woman and you have 1,700kcal on Tuesday – that’s 300kcal more than your daily calorie allowance of 1,400kcal. To stay on track, you’ll need to remove 300kcal from your remaining calorie allowance over the rest of the week. Information guides The guide is delivered through 12 weekly information packs full of diet, healthy eating and physical activity advice, including weekly challenges.
