Q. Do You Have Any Idea?

A.

Unless you write down every single thing you consume over a day, you probably have no idea what or how much you are eating. And that can add to a lot of calories over a year. Just think about the possibilities. It might be a good idea to start a food journal just to see what and when you eat. It might surprise you. I know that my worst time for snacking is in the afternoon. Knowing this, I am able to make take care of the problem by having lots of vegetables chopped and ready to go.
