HERE IS A SUMAMARY OF MY NUTRITION INFORMATION-

CALORIES-2123
CARBS-267

PROTEINS-79.2
Questions
1. How does your total calories compare to the recommended 2000 calories per day? (Hint: Divide the number of calories you ate over 24 hours by 2000 and multiply by 100. This number is the % of total calories.)

ANSWER-%106.15

2. What time of day do you eat most of your calories - morning, afternoon or evening? 


ANSWER-EVENING
3. What does your answer to question #2 imply about your long term health? (For example, if I eat all of my calories at night then I may gain weight because my body will turned unused calories into fat.)


ANSWER-IF I KEEP EATING ALL MY CALORIES AT NIGHT THEN IN THE LONG TERM I WILL BE FAT WHEN I AM OLDER.


4. Describe how many minutes you exercise per day and what activities you engage in on a regular basis. (Example: I ride my bike 42 miles to work each day this takes approximately 3 hours and 45 minutes and walk approximately 4 miles per day)
ANSWER-I PLAY LACROSSE, FOOTBALL and basketball 5 TO 7 TIMES A WEEK FOR TWO HOURS. ON THE DAYS I HAVE OFF I GO WORK OUT FOR 1 HR A DAY. I AM ALWAYS DOING SOMETHING ACTIVE EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK.
5. Use the internet to find out how many calories you burn doing the activities you listed in #4. Considering that the average person burns about 2000 calories per day without doing any extra exercise, how many total calories do you think you burn each day? (Hint: Use a website like this - http://www.nutristrategy.com/activitylist.htm)
    ANSWER- 633 FROM FOOTBALL OR LACROSSE 
422 FROM BASKETBALL 
                                          1126 FROM INTENSE WORKING OUT AND TRAINING

6. What is the most important thing that you can change about your diet or lifestyle to improve your long term health?
ANSWER-To improve my long term health i can stop eating most of my calories at night. I can spread my eating out and exercise after i eat so all the food doesnt turn into fat.

  1. Great work! Your total calories per day should include the base amount of calories that you burn without exercise. For most people this is around 2000 calories per day. Thus, your total calories needed per day is over 4,000. I hope that helps.
