Lab Title: PLM Nutrition Analysis / Date: 2017-06-23

PURPOSE / OBJECTIVE(S):

§  To analyze my own personal nutrition on separate days, a typical work day, a typical school day, a weekend day, and a planned healthy day .

METHODS / TOOLS / INSTRUMENTATION / PROCEDURES;

§  Created an account at https://www.supertracker.usda.gov so that I could keep track of my daily food intake.

§  Followed the directions on the website and kept track or estimated my intake for three days during the week and from this analysis designed a healthy day.

§  The four days are described below.

§  These are examples of my Days. Some days are combinations of work and school and leisure.

§  My mother is a stay-at-home mom and is a good cook.

RESULTS:

§  In comparing five different days of calorie intake, it appears that most calories are derived from carbohydrates compared to fats, fruits, and sodium. Refer to Tables 3, 6, 10, 14 for analysis. ???????

§  It appears that on the more “disciplined” day, I consume less calories of every food group Refer to all Tables.

§  On a “typical” eating day, it appears that I consume more total fat, fiber, vegetables, and fruits that in any other day. Refer to Table 4, 5, 9, 10.

§  More protein was consumed on typical and high calories day compared to “low, school day, and weekend” days. Refer to Table 2.

§  The break-down of my normal daily food intake is seen at Table TYPICAL 1, Table TYPICAL 2, Table TYPICAL 3, Figure TYPICAL 1 and Table TYPICAL 4, below. (Refer to analysis/discussion section)

§  The categorization of my high daily intake is seen at Table HIGH 1, Table HIGH 2, Table HIGH 3, Figure HIGH 1 and Table HIGH 4, below. (Refer to analysis/discussion section)

§  The analysis of my disciplined daily intake is seen at Table LOW 1, Table LOW 2, Table LOW 3, Figure LOW 1 and Table LOW 4, below. (Refer to analysis/discussion section)

Section 1 Total Calories

This data represents my total caloric intake for the 3 case study days.

The data is consistent with my general knowledge that the greater quantity of pleasure foods, adds greater amounts of calories

Figure 1. Shows the total calories (kcal) consumed for five different days

Ø  9/29 is the highest day of total calories (2,294), 9/27 my typical day shows that I go over my calorie goal by 50 calories, on 9/25, which is my low discipline day I am under my calorie goal and on 10/02 I consume the same amount of calories as 9/25, and on 9/30, which is a weekend day I go over my calorie goal by 108 calories

Section 2 Food Groups

These results compare the my eating habits selection from the basic food groups for 3 case study days and my addition weekend and school day.

Figure 2. Shows the total protein in grams consumed for five different days
