1.) From this project I would like to learn how to eat healthier foods and take care of body more. This information will help me live a longer and healthier life.

2.) I am willing to make some changes in my eating habits in my life, but some of my favorite foods will be hard to give up.

3.) One long term goal of mine is to get in shape and stay a nice weight. Two short term goals are to cut back on the chips and ice cream and also to stop eating so much fast food.

Implementing a healthy diet and exercise is very important in my life. A healthy diet helps prevents me from getting overweight or even becoming obese. Exercising helps keep you in shape. Exercising also helps you burn off all of the fat that you have from either eating the wrong foods or from previously not exercising.

In school we don't really have a large variety of food to choose from. We have a lot junk food. We have things like dooughnuts, cookies, and chips. The only healthy things are the salads they have. I would love to see healthier food being served at lunch, but I doubt that, that change woould occur because the school knows that most kids would stop buying the lunch. At my old school we could get fruit salads, granola bars, and other healthy snacks that were delicious. I would like to see those things here at Thornridge, also.
