Personalized Nutrition and Exercise Plan
I started this class in July and at the beginning of this class we did an assignment to assess our nutritional needs. My daily eating habits are very bad and over the past 15 years I have gained around 80 pounds because of the way I eat. It has been a challenge over the years to come up with a diet and exercise plan that I can implement with my work schedule. I sleep during the day and I work and eat between the hours of 7:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. rotating days throughout the week.
I do have several medical conditions that would benefit from a healthier diet. I have been diagnosed with high cholesterol, acid reflux, and high blood pressure. A logical diet would be one that is low sodium, low in saturated fats, and watching when and how I eat my meals. I also need to implement an exercise plan that I can work into my schedule and that is sustainable with the fluctuating of my work schedule this year. My work schedule has changed four times this year which means my eating schedule has changed that many times also.
This is the Healthy Eating Plan that I made at the beginning of this course that I now realize is a little too ambitious for me to do, in order words the preparation time on this meal plan is too much.
