3 Day Dietary Record

It is important that this record be both accurate and representative of your normal dietary intake.  Thus it is essential that you do not alter your normal eating habits in any way and that you record as precisely as possible every single item that you consume (this includes water, vitamins, condiments, etc.).  To do so, you must follow a few simple instructions (listed below).  The purpose here is to correctly record and quantify your normal intake, not to judge it.  If you change your eating habits in any way, then we cannot accurately analyze your diet.  The procedure may seem somewhat cumbersome, but remember, it is only three days.

INSTRUCTIONS

Keep a detailed journal, I would even recommend keeping a pen and paper with you so that you can accurately track all your food.  The more detail you can give the better.  If you have a food scale use it for the next 3 days.  You could also use measuring cups or spoons to track quantities.  Also provide detail if you are eating brand name packaged foods.  I would also encourage you to pick unique days if possible.  For example if you travel for work and your travel food days look very similar, include one of those days, along with a day in the home office, and maybe a weekend day.  If your weekdays are all pretty much the same but weekends tend to include more indulgences, include 2 weekdays and 1 weekend day.
