Here's your challenge: Take at least
ONE DAY to write down
everything food related that passes your lips for one entire day.
Keep track the best you can. It's up to you to see how detailed you want to be. At least, write what food you ate and the amount (ounces, piece, etc). If you'd like to get detailed, you can journal like I do:
food - calories - fat - carbs - protein - fiber - calcium
If it's a prepackaged item, all the nutritional information is right there on the package. Just write it down. If it's an item like fruits, nuts, meats, veggies, chicken-stuff that's not prepackaged and has no nutritional info, check out a site like CALORIE KING, just click the link:

For those of you who use FITDAY.COM, you can make your journal public for that one day, if you wish.
Any day this week is fine, doesn't matter. I think this will be a great way to show others what we eat, while some people who don't ever journal; may have a eye-awakening experience to see how much they are really eating.
I wish everyone luck-any questions, don't be afraid to ask!!!
