From the table that I have created above, I noticed how much

unhealthy for my body, so I created a menu below that incorporate a
nutritious, delicious, and low-calorie meal.

Total
1,446

This menu is has a total of 1,446 calories, which gives me a

remaining of 54 calories as opposed to the negative 1,000 calories in
the table where I recorded my daily intake. The meal plan I created is
not only healthy, but it gives me the proteins that I need daily. This
project gave me an insight of what I am putting into my body
everyday. I know that it is hard to eat healthy, but when you start
caring about your body and thinking about the future, it is all worth it.
I have also learned that everyday, I have negative amounts of
calories, which means I have consumed more calories than needed.
This is a big problem because if this continues on a daily basis, it will
be harmful for my body.
I will begin maintaining a healthy diet by setting three simple
yet nutritional goals for myself, which will be easy to reach. First, I will

substitute white rice with brown rice. I have been eating white rice all
my life but it is not because it tastes better to me, but that is what my
family eats at home. So, I will start by buying brown rice because it
gives my body much more benefits than white rice, despite the calorie
difference. My second goal is to change the type of snacks I have each
day to fruits because that will give me more health benefits and it will
not add extra unnecessary calories. Lastly, rather than having
scrambled or fried eggs, I will have a boiled egg because it is cooked
without oil; therefore, having less calories.
