Reflection on the Process

Hello everyone :)

During the 3 days of tracing my diet and analyzing it, I feel that I have learnt a lot about my intake of food.

Through this exercise, I realize that I don't usually take note of the type of foods I eat, and may end up eating unhealthy snacks with high sugar, salt or oil content.
Instead of eating this kind of snacks that are usually loaded with salt, I could instead take a muesli bar or some wholegrain cereal. This would be a healthier choice as they contain more vitamins and minerals and less fats.

My Conclusion: The amount of protein, total fats, and sodium I ingest is way too much, while the amount of vegetables I eat is too little. Nonetheless, I feel that my diet is quite alright as I play sports quite often (basketball, swimming, badminton, etc) which can help burn my fats and sodium. I also eat fruits everyday. However, I feel I need to reduce my diet of protein as I am eating too much of it than what is recommended for a 14-year old girl and increase the number of vegetables I consume.

This performance task has helped me realize the importance of a balanced diet, and that everyone should watch what they eat lest they end up having heart and respiratory problems caused by excessive fats clogging up the body system.

This is the end of my post and blog, sadly, and I hope you have enjoyed this "learning journey" as much as I did.
Thank you!!

Patience~
