As per chart below, my vitamin D levels have come up with my new lowest vitamin being Vitamin E. I don’t think I will address this right now. If it happens next reporting period then I’ll consider it.

It hasn’t been that difficult really, just takes a little discipline and a handy smallish notepad.

I have used Fitday.com to calculate and track my calories. I wasn’t worried about complete perfection at this time, I just did the best I could with the time I had. Here are the results:

a) I have been consuming an average of 3,183 calories per day. Much of this coming from Fat and Carbs. See chart below.

Based on a quick search online of recommended daily calorie intake, my ideal caloric intake is 2000 to 2,500 calories per day depending on activity level. So….my average daily caloric intake is way too high.

b) Also of interest is that Vitamin D intake is very low. Vitamin D is important for Calcium to work in your body. This needs to be fixed. I will visit my local health store and see what they have this week.
