Honor System Cover Sheet Student Name Elizabeth Basham S t u d e n t I D 905-305-977 Class 9:05-9:55 AM Professor / Instructor M.D. Lewis Assignment/Test Honor Pledge: I have neither given nor received unauthorized assistance on this assignment. Student Signature Date 1 HNFE 1004 INSTRUCTIONS FOR COURSE PROJECT 2 INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING PROJECT TASKS TASK #1. ESTIMATE YOUR ENERGY BALANCE FROM THE FIRST OF THE SEMESTER TO THE LAST PART OF OCTOBER. • Weigh yourself the first of the semester and record your weight in both pounds and kilograms on the “Estimate of Energy Balance” worksheet. • Weigh yourself again right before the due date and record it on the same worksheet as you did your first weight. • Calculate and record in both pounds and kilograms any changes in body weight during that time. • Indicate if you experienced a positive, negativ e , or balanced energ y balanc e during that time. • Estimate and record the number of excess of deficit kilocalories in your diet during that time, if your weight changed. If you did not attend the lecture on energy balance, you will need to consult your text chapter on energy balance for the information to figure excess or deficit calories. IMPORTANT : Weigh yourself on the same scale and at the same time of day for both your weight recordings. If possible weigh yourself without clothing, before you have eaten breakfast in the morning. This will give you your most accurate weight. Women, try to weigh yourself at the same time of your menstrual cycle. TASK #2. RECORD YOUR FOOD, BEVERAGE, AND NUTRIENT SUPPLEMENT INTAKE FOR THREE CONSECUTIVE DAYS. • Using the “Food Intake Record” worksheets, record everything you eat and drink for three (3) consecutive days including one weekend day. o It is important that you eat what you would ordinarily eat, so the dietary record truly is representative of your usual intake. Remember you will NOT be graded on what or how much you eat. o Try to record the food as you eat it or immediately after you have eaten it. This will help ensure you don’t forget small items such as margarine, sugar, or drinks. o Include all food, beverages, gum, candies, condiments, and water consumed during each 24 hour period including during the night. • In the “Amounts Eaten” column of the worksheet, record the total quantity of each food eaten. Estimate as accurately as possible in cups, tablespoons, grams, ounces, slices, etc. • In the “Food/Drink” column of the worksheet, record the name of each food item you eat or drink and how the food item was cooked. This is not necessary if the item as a whole is in the data base. o If you consume a food item that contains more than one ingredient, break it down and list key ingredients separately, one ingredient per line. FOR EXAMPLE: Hoagie: 1 small white roll, 1 oz. American cheese, 4 oz. lean turkey, 2 leaves of lettuce, 2 thin slices of tomato, 1 Tbs. spicy mustard, and 1 tsp. mayonnaise. Remember to record the amounts in the “Amounts” column not the “Food/Drink” column. o Record brand names of foods and how they are cooked. This will help with the diet analysis and make it more accurate. • Use the “Dietary Supplement Record” to record any vitamin, mineral, protein, or amino acid supplements. o Record the brand name, the nutrient name, and the nutrient(s) dosage for each supplement. If a supplement contains multiple nutrients, record each nutrient on a separate line of the form. o Place a check in the column for each of the three record days you consumer the supplement. 5 TASK #3. RECORD YOUR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FOR SEVEN (7) CONSE C UT I VE DAYS . • Using the “Physical Activity Record” worksheets, record all your physical activity for seven (7) consecutive days. Three of the days you record your physical activities should also be the three (3) days you are recording your diet. See the example sheet. o It is important that your physical activity for the week not be out of the ordinary, so that your record is truly representative of your usual activity level. o Try to record your physical activities immediately after you perform them. This will help ensure the accuracy of your record. o Include any activity that you do for a sustained period (for at least 10 minutes) such as walking to class, aerobics, biking. o Do not include time spent relaxing, sleeping, sitting, or engaging in other routine daily activities such as showering, dressing, and brushing your teeth. • In the “Day” column, record the number of the day an activity is performed, such as Day 1, Day 2, etc. • In the “Activity” column record the name of the activity in which you engage, such as cycling, weight lifting, etc. • In the “Minutes” column record the amount of time (in minutes) you participate in each activity during the day. • Mark an “X” in the “Aerobic”, “Weight Training”, and “Flexibility” columns as appropriate to indicate the type of activity. • Mark an “X” in the “Warm Up” and “Cool Down” columns as appropriate to indicate if you performed these activities. TASK #4. ANALYZE YOUR THREE-DAY FOOD INTAKE USING THE SOFTWARE SUPPLIED WITH YOUR TEXT. (PIN CODE CARD) • Using the “Diet Analysis +” software that came with your text, perform a nutritional analysis of the three- day food intake you recorded. • Read all the instructions for the software before beginning your diet analysis. • Follow the instructions to enter ALL foods and beverages (BUT NOT SUPPLEMENTS) into the appropriate software dialog boxes. Please remember that you must enter all your data for one day at one time. • Save your three daily intakes by clicking on the “Save” icon on the toolbar of the program before attempting to print your results.  Before printing your “Intake vs Goals” page, you need to average the 3 days of intake. To do this choose the start date of your 1st day and the end date of your last day, click “Recalculate”. The information will now be an average. • Print an analysis of your diet by clicking on the “Print” icon next to the “Help” question mark (?) on the program tool bar. A selection window will appear that asks which report you which to print. Select “Print All” and click “OK”. All of the reports you need to evaluate your diet and include with your project will be printed. TASK #5. ANALYZE YOUR SEVEN-DAYS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY USING THE ACSM PHYSICAL ACTIVITY GUIDELINES IN THE PROJECT. • Using the "ACSM Physical Activities Guidelines" and the "Physical Activity Analysis" worksheets, analyze your physical activity routine. (DON’T USE THE DIET ANALYSIS TOOL) 6 • Indicate if you have a pre-existing health condition and consulted a physician about exercise before beginning. • For aerobic activities indicate (a) the total number of aerobic activity sessions for the week, (b) the number of aerobic activity sessions that lasted 30 minutes or more, (c) the total minutes engaged in all aerobic activities for the week, and (d) the relative percent of times you warmed up and cooled down before and after the sessions. • For strength training activities indicate (a) the total number of strength training sessions for the week, (b) the number of strength training sessions that worked major muscle groups, (c) the total minutes engaged in all strength training activities for the week, and (d) the relative percent of times you warmed up and cooled down before and after the sessions. • For flexibility training indicate (a) the total number of flexibility training sessions for the week, (b) the average length (in minutes) of a flexibility training session, (c) the total minutes engaged in all flexibility training activities for the week, and (d) the relative percent of times you warmed up and cooled down before and after the sessions. TASK #6. EVALUATE THE ANALYSIS OF YOUR FOOD INTAKE. • Use the information from the “Intake vs. goals” of the diet analysis printed report to complete the “How Does Your Diet Compare” worksheet using the software supplied with your text (the green with red apple registration card with a PIN number inside). The textbook representative will visit class to show you how to use the registration card. • Use the “My Pyramid” report to complete the “My Pyramid” worksheet • Use the information you have gained from completing the “How Does Your Diet Compare” to complete the “Evaluate Your Diet” worksheet. (nutrient intake okay, too high, too low) TASK #7. EVALUATE THE ANALYSIS OF YOUR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. • Use the information from the ACSM Physical Activities Guidelines” and the “Evaluate Your Physical Activity worksheet to complete the “Evaluate Your Physical Activity” worksheet. TASK #8. PLAN A NEW DIET PATTERN TO MEET STANDARD NUTRITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS AND YOUR PERSONAL NTURITIONAL GOALS AND PLAN A NEW PHYSICAL ACTIVITY ROUTINE TO MEET STANDARD PHYSICAL ACTIVITY RECOMMENDATIONS AND YOUR PERSONAL PHYSICAL ACTIVITY GOALS. • Using the “Plan Your New Diet and Physical Activity Routine” worksheets, thoughtfully plan your new diet pattern and physical activity regimen. Remember don’t plan an ideal diet pattern that you will never be able to follow. Rather plan a realistic diet that thoughtfully and honestly considers your personal nutritional goals and the constraints you will encounter while working to meet those goals. Also plan a realistic activity routine that thoughtfully and honestly takes into account your personal physical fitness goals and the roadblocks that you and life in general will put in your way as you work to achieve those goals. 7 f.
