realize that my diet is very erratic most days. I believe some of this is because I live in a dorm and I have to use my meal plan. I am very picky eater so that does not help in my erratic diet. I notice many times that I eat because I am bored. Also, I need to eat while I study to stay focused. My meal plan shows the mental and emotional state that I felt before and after I ate the meal. I believe this is a very important aspect of the dietary analysis because it shows how you feel and what…

snoring of the person sleeping beside me. I opened my eyes right before the flight attendant asked me, “Can I get you something to eat, sir?” I said, while suppressing a yawn, “A chicken sandwich and a cup of coffee, please.” She handed me the last meal on board with a smile and said in a merry voice “Here you go, sir.” After having my sandwich, I looked at my watch, it was 6:15 PM.

gets wasted and many ways we can reduce the amount of waste from food. One way that food gets wasted according to "This Apple Could Of Been Saved" is that it is just easier to just throw away the food instead of taking care of it, for leftovers. "At school, you might toss your half eaten bag of pretzels because that's easier than carrying it around in your backpack all afternoon.

In fact, I couldn’t think of anything more boring to do than talk about a diet of pasta and potatoes for three generations straight. But the more I thought about this topic, the more I realized that my grandmother growing up couldn’t say her favorite food is a mango like I can.

Eating sweets in moderation can be a pleasure that is not disordered, but if you eat sweets three times a day everyday, then that is a disordered desire.
