8. Contents of a Food Diary
Some basic pieces of information are useful to record in a food diary:
- What you eat (including measurements of how much)
- When you eat
- Where you eat
- Who you eat with
- What else you're doing when you eat
This will help identify any patterns that you might want to change, such as a tendency to overeat when out with friends. You might also want to include physical health symptoms, mood, and energy levels, to highlight any connections between food and general health.
