Meeting My Nutritional Needs

Keep a 24-hour food diary one day this week, recording everything you consume from each food group (with quantities) in that period and the physical activity that you engage in (what and how long).
Calculate your BMR: https://bmicalc.org/bmr-calculator-for-women
Determine your daily calorie needs: Multiply your weight in pounds by 18 -this equals the number of calories required daily to maintain your current weight (of course you would consume fewer when trying to loose weight), the average calorie need for most adult women is around 2,000 calories per day.Find out your precise daily calorie need by doing the math. Weight in Pounds X 18 = Daily Calorie Need

Use this information (food diary, your BMR and Daily Calorie Needs based on weight) to write a brief reflection (less than two pages) responding to the following questions in essay format:
What are the strengths and weaknesses of your current diet?
Which nutrients may have be missing?
How many calories do you think you consumed?
How does your BMR/Daily Calorie need relate to what you consume each day?
What would you like to change and why?
