Carbohydrates:
 

1. I consume a daily average of 300 grams of carbohydrates.
   
2. This means that I consume about 1148 calories of carbohydrates every
   day.
    
3. This means I consume about 41% carbohydrates from all my calories.
    
4. My carbohydrate intake percentage is just under the recommended 45%-65% so

           I'm ok. 
 
Complex Carbohydrates-
100% Whole Weat Bread

Simple Carbohydrates- apples,
 
strawberries

Concentrated simple carbohydrates-
  butter,
pudding, lemonade

Fats:
 

1. My average daily intake of fats is around 150 grams.
    
2. These 150 grams equals 1206 calories of fat.
    
3. My total fat intake is at 46% which is pretty high according to the
   recommended 25%-35%.
     After analizing myself,  I think I
   could cut back on some of the sweet bread and chips to
     lower my fat
   intake.
4. My cholesterol intake is at 500mg which is not that bad for my age. I
   could cut back on my 
      bad cholesterol by eating
   more eggs. Atleast 2 a day. 
   

Protein:
 

1. My average daily intake of protein is 60 grams.
    
2. I consume about 240 calories of protein.
    
3. My protein percentage way below the scale only at 12% which falls
   very short of the recommended amount of protein
   25%-35%.

Vitamins and Minerals:
 

1. The recommended amount of salt intake is 6 grams, but I consume an average
   
     of 1 grams of salt daily so I need to consume more salt. I will
   go about doing this by eating a lot of salt
   everyday.

Conclusion:
This nutritional
journal is eye opening. I thought I was very healthy just because I ate a
lot of veggies and fruits. However, I didn't realize I had a
terrible balance in my diet. Now that I know my eating habits: I
will fix my diet so it's balanced.
