Nutrition Journal Update- Due May 17th

As a class we are setting good goals, however, we are missing the specificity part of our goal setting. Go back to the idea of setting a S.M.A.R.T. goal (Specific, Measureable, Attainable, Realistic and has a Time frame). Without this concept, our goals can be hard to track. Take a look at your goal. Many of you are saying, "I will eat more veggies" or "I will eat less snacks." What does this mean? How many less or how many more? BE SPECIFIC! Revise your goal if it needs to be. If you've already placed an amount on it, for example, "I will eat at least 3 fruits a day," then tell us how you are tracking this goal. Do you write it down? What may help you be held more accountable for sticking to your goal?

  2. i will drink at least three glasses of water a day to stay hydrated and prevent me from consuming other sugary choices, such as soda. i will also will only eat 1 sweet thing, such as a candy or a cookie, a day. i should probably start writing it down because that would help with accountability.

  3. (i thought i did this on friday, but i guess it didnt publish right?)

    i will drink 3 cups of water a day, and if i am craving a sugary drink such as soda, i will put a little bit of a low calorie crystal light in my water so that it fulfills the sugary craving without consuming a SUPER sugary drink
