Day Three Food Journal

My Day three food journal has been recorded. It is now becoming my new normal to write stuff down. The first journal was a struggle, this seems pretty easy now. It is interesting how quickly we can adapt to something new. I am definitely seeing some things to adjust! Can you see it?

This seems like a nice day of eating.  I added times, I added amounts, and I tried to include brands when applicable.  I have one more day of food journaling then I am going to look at all four days and try to find any commonalities.  

A few takeaways:

•  I eat a large amount of nuts

• I am always having dessert

• I have two, very close together snacks.

• Actually it seems like I am eating constantly through the day. Every two hours except breakfast to my first snack.

Well, while journaling, I am not going to worry about all of that now.  I am going to eat as normal as I can this last day, write it out, THEN start looking for things to improve upon!  I am almost there, ready to take the next step!!

My final journaling day will be on the way…
