How to fill out my 3-day food diary

How to fill out a 3-day food diary:

1. Start by selecting a specific 3-day period to track your food intake. It is recommended to choose days that represent your typical eating habits.
2. Record each meal and snack you consume during the selected period. Include details such as the type of food, portion sizes, and any condiments or beverages consumed.
3. Be as specific as possible when documenting your food choices. Instead of simply noting "sandwich," include the type of bread, fillings, and any additional toppings or sauces.
4. Keep track of the time at which you eat each meal and snack. This will help identify any patterns or specific times of the day where you tend to consume certain types of food.
5. Additionally, note the location or the context in which you eat your meals. For example, if you tend to snack more while watching TV or eating out at restaurants, this information can be helpful in analyzing your eating behaviors.
6. Include any relevant details about your eating experience. For instance, whether you ate alone or with others, if you were distracted while eating, or if you experienced any emotional or physical sensations during meals.
7. Utilize a food diary template or smartphone app specifically designed for tracking food intake to make the process easier and more organized.
