I have lost and gained so many pounds in the last 30 years and one thing every loss has in common is a food journal. I’ve done printable food journals, downloaded free food journals, used online food journals, and even posted my Weight Watchers food journals here on my blog.  I’ve had success with every type of journal; but my failure comes when I stop writing down ever thing I eat. I’m always thinking about food quality and portion sizes, but actually writing it down helps me stay on track.

One of my biggest health challenges is diet soda. It’s a habit I’ve had since the early 1970’s and it’s my dirty little nutritional secret.  Going vegetarian and organic was easy. Heck, even quitting smoking was easy in comparison to getting off the artificial sugar.  Soda is the only “food” I ingest with the nasty stuff in it. I know there are many serious health issues associated with artificial sweeteners and they’ve been found to contribute to obesity, so my goal is to journal just how many diet sodas I’m drinking a day.  Armed with that info, I want to redirect the money I’m wasting on these non-nutritional drinks into something else. I shudder to think of the huge amount of my food budget that goes for drinks; especially when water is practically free.

So that’s my nutritional challenge – do you have one? Are you looking to add more fruits and vegetables? Perhaps journaling can help you break a bad habit or create a healthy one.
