Why keep a food diary?

Writing it down shows habits you do not notice — snacking, skipped meals, too little water — and helps with allergies, digestion or weight goals.

What should I write down?

The time, what you ate and drank, how much, and how you felt — full, tired, bloated.

Yes — add a column for calories, protein or anything else.

Should I show it to a doctor or dietitian?

Yes — a few weeks of entries give them a clear picture.

Is anything uploaded?

No. The pages are made in your browser.
