Should I Track What I'm Eating?

9/19/2020

 
Most people think about tracking their intake to "keep them on track." 
In other words, as a behavior modification.
Sometimes this can be a great practice.
Sometimes it is really annoying though.

However, tracking your intake for even a really short time can be excellent as a data collection practice. 

I recommend the free version of MyFitnessPal.
You can download it from the App Store or GooglePlay. 

This simple Health Journal is great also.
Sometimes putting pen to paper is a bit more therapeutic.
Also, I really like that this journal lets you track a lot of data in a really streamlined way.


This journal tracks:
  • Foods Consumed
  • Macros and Calories
  • Exercise
  • Blood Sugar
  • Weight
  • Blood Pressure
  • Sleep
  • Water
  • How You Feel
  • Pain Level
  • Goals For The Next Day
  • Vitamin and Supplement Log (This can be used for medication also.)
