Food journaling has been VERY eye opening. I eat nothing but shit. And lots of it. It also helped me identify that I need to eat more fruits and veggies and less sugar. I knew I was deficient in the produce area, but putting it on paper really showed me by how much. There were two days in the last seven where my only actual fruit or vegetable consumed was juice. Well, if you count spaghetti sauce, I had that too. But still.
I also had a day when I binged on chocolate, big time. I ended up with a horrible headache by the end of the day and puked. I almost never puke, even when I'm sick. I sort of suspect it was a migraine, but I don't think I have ever had one before. It was not pleasant. If I had not been journaling, I don't think I would have noticed the food pattern.
Interesting and worth the three minutes a day it takes to write stuff down. My goal for the next week is to track the calories too. I probably don't want to know how bad it will be.
