Keeping a food diary is one of the best ways to educate your self on how much food you really eat on a daily basis. Before you can improve your diet in order to lose weight you need to know exactly what and how much food you do eat. Food diaries also give us insight as to our eating and lifestyle patterns.
This is a huge help in managing a Diet. It’s pretty revealing when you look back over a day or two to see how much you’ve actually ingested. Then makes you wonder “did I really need this or that, etc”. Good motivation!
