When to use this form
Use this form when you want a clear record of what you eat and how it affects you. It helps you prepare for a first meeting with a dietitian, start a weight-loss plan, or spot triggers for bloating, headaches, or low energy. Log meals, snacks, drinks, portions, and notes across a week. If you are meeting a clinician, pair it with the Nutritional assessment questionnaire form to give fuller context. Athletes can track fueling around workouts. If sleep or late-night snacking is an issue, connect patterns with the Sleep tracker form. People managing diabetes or digestive issues can share the log to adjust portions, timing, and choices, and leave with a specific, realistic next step.
Must Ask Diet Journal Questions
- What did you eat and drink, and how much (portion size)?
Specific items and amounts turn vague notes into data you can act on. Clear portions help you and your clinician estimate calories, macros, and potential allergens.
- What time did you eat, and how hungry or full were you (110)?
Meal timing and satiety levels reveal patterns like grazing, long gaps, or rebound hunger. This lets you test tweaks such as a protein-rich breakfast or adjusted snack times.
- Where were you, and what else were you doing while eating?
Location and multitasking often drive mindless eating (TV, desk, car). Seeing these cues helps you set small changes, like plating food and pausing screens.
- How did you feel before and after (energy, mood, GI symptoms)?
Capturing energy, mood, and GI feedback links foods to how you feel. If symptoms are broad, pair with the Health checklist form to track details.
- Did you take any medications or supplements, and did you exercise around this meal?
Medications, supplements, and activity can change appetite, glucose, and blood pressure. If you track blood pressure, the Home blood pressure report form helps you see how meals impact readings.
