The First Page of Your Food Diary - Your Starting Weight and Diet Goals

Some examples of health goals could include reducing your blood pressure, reducing your cholesterol levels or you could use this space to list exercise goals. (Our Walking guide has some great walking journals you can use to track your exercise.) You may also want to record your daily calorie goal. This goal can be a single number like 1550 calories, or a small range, something like 1500 to 1600 calories. If you aren't sure how many calories you should be consuming each day, use my Calorie and Nutrition Guide to help you. If your weight loss or gain slows down, you can always adjust your calorie goal up or down in a few weeks.
