   Food Diary 
     Healthy eating and being physically active are essential for 
     good health. What you eat can either protect you or increase 
     your chances of heart disease and stroke.
     The key to healthy eating is to eat a wide variety of foods. Using the Food Pyramid as 
     a guide will help make sure you get all the vitamins, minerals and goodness you need 
     from your food. Aim to eat regular meals throughout the day.
     Choose most foods from the bottom two shelves, smaller amounts from the net two 
     shelves and a very small amount from the net shelf. Foods on the top shelf should be 
     avoided as they are high in fat, salt and sugar and not neessary for health.
     Does your diet add up?
     eeping a food diary for ust three days an help you see how your diet ompares 
     to healthy eating guidelines. rite down everything you eat or drink during the 
     day. Then add up the number of servings for eah of the si shelves and ompare 
     them with the reommended servings on the Food Pyramid. ow did you do  hat

               as you may eat different foods on weekdays ompared to weekends.
