Part 1: Connect to Your Values

Track Your Daily Food Intake and Physical Activity

Print on Demand

Use the HealthyLife® Weigh Eating & Exercise Tracker™ throughout this program. It will help you monitor and better understand your habits.

 

Before making changes to your eating and exercise habits, complete the Eating & Exercise Tracker™ for one week (7 days). Do the activities in Part 1 during this week while you are tracking your eating and exercise.

 

Tracking Tips

•  Log every day. This will keep your efforts at the front of your mind.

•  Log before or after you eat. Logging before you eat can help you plan. This guide will talk more about meal planning in Part 3.

•  Be honest with your portions and the extras you add to your food (e.g., sauces, dressings, cheese).

•  Reflect on your mood and energy throughout the day. What you eat and drink can affect how you feel. And, how you feel can affect what you eat and drink.
