Week 3 Health Report

Hey everybody!  It's Rachel.  I have my health report for today!

Rachel
21 year old female
Full-time student
Moderate exercise (2-4 times a week)
Height:  5'1"
Weight:  212 (up .9 pounds)
Thoughts:  "I didn't watch the diet as much as I should have this week--granted, each meal had all my MyPlate options, but sometimes I only ate 2 meals and one was larger and so on.  My snacks were also a lot of peanuts and sunflower seeds, which have a ton of salt!  I felt so bloated all week and my fingers even swelled up to the point where the rings I was wearing that got really loose were now tight and uncomfortable on the original fingers they were on!  Looks like I'll have to stay away from such tasty (and supposedly healthy!) snacks and eat things with far less sodium!  Next week will be better though--I'm learning a lot!"

That's all for now.  Watch sodium intake, MyPlaters!  It'll make you retain water and you won't feel your best--needless to say you'll gain some weight!  However, I'm confident I can get that off and maybe a little more next week!

That's all for now!
