Keeping track of your diet can help you prevent a lot of health risks and keep your body up and healthy. Even skipping a simple meal can result in something damaging to your body. This activity helped me learn a lot about my body and what I should be in taking and what I shouldn’t be taking. One of my biggest strengths when is comes to my eating habits is staying persistent with what I eating and how much I eat. For example, I eat breakfast every single morning whereas some people skip breakfast one day then eat breakfast the next. Another strength would be the number of calories I intake daily, although they are under the average amount I’m supposed to be intaking I do keep it at the same level almost every other day. One last strength I have when it comes to my eating habits is I don’t eat unhealthy, yes I do eat some unhealthy things here and there, but I don’t overload myself with unhealthy fattening foods. Although I do have strengths they still aren’t at the best they can be. To improve them I’m going to start keeping a food journal to keep track of all the foods I’m eating daily. This will help me come to an agreement and can stabilize my eating habits to the point where I’m satisfied with what I’m eating and my overall well-being. Keeping track of my diet was so helpful because it made me realize that even the slightest deficiency can

It was a frigid February Sunday. In the suburbs of Washington DC, the weather is like an infant, no knowing what it will do. I began my day gloomy, as I have been for the past couple of days since the day Maa passed away. I raced the sun to see who could get ready quicker, and I won. My head felt quite cool for I forgot that my hair had nearly been shaved off. I had the taste of chocolate milk in my mouth from last night, the warm mug that my aunt gave me. My next challenge was to get around this labyrinth in my room to the bathroom. Instead of rustic walls, the walls consisted of guests laid across the floor, staying at our place for today.

They want to add 90 min to school every day.They will hate that and it will be a long day and I get home late and not do my home work then I would go to sleep late because they added 90 min. All the class will be longer it would be long day for me we will stay later and now it gets dark outside and I will have no time to play outside then I just go inside and sit and play my game. We get out at 2:50 then if they add 90 min we will get out at

The primary goal of my behavior change project was not to eliminate my sugar intake entirely, but to cut back on the amount of sugar that I consumed per day to a healthier amount. Before this project, I was consuming 1-2 twelve packs of soda per week. Each soda can contains 48g of sugar…that’s 576-1,152g of sugar! According to the American Heart Association (AHA), the maximum amount of added sugars you should eat in a day are (7): Men: 150 calories per day (37.5 grams or 9 teaspoons). Women: 100 calories per day (25 grams or 6 teaspoons).This is a six week project, in which each week I will decrease my sugar intake, until I reach zero grams of sugar per day.

Five days can make a big difference. In as little as five days you can cleanse your system of drug toxins no matter how hard the drug or how heavy you have used. A 5 day kit can rid your blood, urine and saliva of any trace of unwanted toxins. But it does take time, effort and abstinence from drug use. Continuing use during a detox will greatly reduce your chances of success. Follow the instruction and you can be clean in 5 days.

Students love three-day weekends, but imagine a four-day week all year long. A lot of schools have already adopted this schedule, making school easier for both the students and the teachers. While the students have an extra day to recharge and relax for the week ahead, the teachers have time to plan better, more complex lessons. It's a win for both the teachers and students. This new schedule is a very controversial topic within schools which would be a great improvement to be adopted among all. School’s should switch to a four-day schedule because students have a higher morale, it would give them more personal time, time to study and sleep, and the teachers would have more time to prepare for more superior lessons.

It’s the smell of your grandma’s house, the scent of wax crayons and Elmer’s® glue, the aroma of your favorite home-cooked holiday cookies that your mom baked only once a year when you were a kid. Smells and odors have a natural tendency to transport you back to the rose-colored years of your childhood. Before you know it, you’re suddenly caught up in thoughts of who you were and how you’ve changed or perhaps reflecting on which decisions brought you to where you are in that particular moment in life. It’s in that moment, those short-lived moments, that one deeply appreciates the ability to smell and maybe wonders how such an arbitrary smell can have such a strong emotional response. Most of the scents that have strong emotional connections, nowadays, originate from inside of buildings and houses, just as most of the population lives indoors and spend most of their time in their homes or office buildings or schools.

By making a three-day food log I could see that I am eating very well. Like we have discussed in class most of us are getting more than enough of our fair share of calorie intake. Taking this into account I knew that my calorie count was going to be high but I was a bit surprise that I averaged 3,700 a day. I am not worried about this because I am training for the Chicago Marathon so eating good is part of my preparation. When it comes to vegetables I do need to eat a few more servings per day but other than that I eat more than enough to satisfy the recommended amounts from the food guide pyramid. What I do need to lower my extra sugar and fat intake. Sugar has always been a problem for me, I just love it too much. However about six years

It is November 4th, one of the longest days of my life it seemed. I woke up that morning to get ready for school, and I told myself, “One more day. Just get through today and your patience will have paid off. The best things are worth waiting for.” Though I told myself that, it was very much easier said than done. That day felt like it never ended, each class seemed to drag on for hours, and the bus ride turned from an hour and twenty minutes to a whole day. When I finally got home, I ran into the house and kicked my shoes off so fast while still running they flew across the room and hit the far wall I was so excited. My mind was running at a million miles an hour, gathering my gear, retrieving my clothes from the scent free laundry

Nine months is all it takes to create every single human living on this planet . Nine months and in that time you turn from something as small as a seed to a newborn baby . During this whole cycle and amazing journey we are all made to be unique and different from everybody else . There is only one you in this planet which has characteristics that make you who you are. Some of these characteristics happen in the womb which can affect your whole life. Situs inverses , Ectodermal dysplasia, and Sonic hedgehog are just a few examples of genetic conditions that have a complete impact on one's life.

I was unable to take the challenge for a full day but I did succeed a half of a day. In the beginning, it was very difficult. When my phone went off, I jumped to it to see who sent me what (the reason as to why I was unable to take the challenge for a full day), soon realizing I wasn't supposed to. It was also very difficult in the beginning because my friends will send me several messages throughout the day of funny tweets, videos, or pictures they have found, which is the highlight of my day. As talked about in Turn Off the Phone (and the Tension), my hands almost ached to reach for my phone. As talked about in this article, the more the day went on, it was easier to not pick up my phone every couple of minutes to get on my regular social media and the less I had JOMO to see what my friends were doing. I got used to putting my phone away in my bag or leaving it in my room. It felt really good being able to disconnect for a while. After a while, I wasn't worried about what my friends were doing on social media and paid more attention to what was happening in that moment within my surroundings.

For class, I was challenged to avoid a sweet food that I eat almost every day for forty-eight hours and see the effects on the brain by avoid this sweet. Therefore, I decided to avoid ice cream because every day when I go to the cafeteria I end up having ice cream for either lunch or dinner.

God did not create us for the easy times. He did not breathe life into us for the times of peace and tranquility. These are our restful periods when we can re-group and regain our strength for the battles ahead. He created us for the messy periods, the turbulent times, and the crisis moments. Why?

The college workload is something that teachers did not prepare students enough for while they were in high school. Many students fall behind and have difficulty completing all of the work that is assigned to them. A twenty four hour library that is available for students is a great idea because it provides students with many great opportunities and conveniences when it comes to getting their schoolwork done. A twenty four hour library molds to the way of life for college students, gives students a quiet place to study, and provides students with resources that a student may not have. Yes a twenty four hour library can prove to be difficult for staffing, but the positives greatly outweigh the negatives.

My daily sugar intake was about 30 grams, which I think is not so bad compare to a lot of other people. My sugar intake are mostly from my sun tea that I drink every morning, instead of drinking blended very fattening coffee. I gave up a lot on sweets, which means no cookies, cake, pastry’s, cereal, soda or fruit drinks. On a daily life I usually will eat 2 or 3 teaspoon of ice cream, then I quit. I try not litter my body with too much toxic, I try very hard.
