Summary
Throughout the Fitwell nutrition project I made many discoveries about my diet. Based on the Harris Benedict Equation, I found that I am eating approximately four hundred calories more than the suggested amount. This somewhat surprised me because I have not gained any weight since I arrived at college. However, what most likely put me over the top was my consumption of soft and crunchy white chocolate macadamia nut cookies that I so much enjoy. Another aspect of my diet that I found disturbing was my very high consumption carbohydrates. According to the government’s guidelines I should be getting about half my calories from carbohydrates instead of the sixty-five percent I am currently getting. From this information I plan to change
