Analysis of My Diet

Weekend

General Overview of My Diet:
According to USDA - CNPP's analysis of my weekend diet, I achieved a satisfactory grade for almost all categories. I lacked the recommended intake for all categories, only eating up to half of what is recommended. I guess from this analysis, I now know that i have to place greater emphasis on my weekend diet.

Nutrients Analysis:
USDA - CNPP's analysis of my weekend nutritional intake, surprisingly shows that I'm meeting my recommended nutrient goals despite the fact that i am not meeting my recommended calorie intake. Calories need to be my main focus for future weekends, without it, i lack the required energy to carry out my daily activities. Vitamin E may be another thing i need to focus on; from what i know, vitamin e effects my immune functions, and skin condition.


Exercise Analysis:
According to USDA - CPP's analysis of my physical activity, I performed well, and burned a decent amount of calories. This is all thanks to my frequent workout routine during weekends and weekdays. I shall maintain this score throughout each week.


Weekday

General overview of my diet:
Compared to my weekends, i seem to do much better during weekdays. I get a full grade for most of my food group goals; HOWEVER, the analysis shows that i may have eaten too much - i've exceeded my sodium, cholesterol and total fat intake - this could potentially harm me.
