How healthy is your eating? Here is a simple activity to try (which real dietitians do with their patients!):

STEP 2: Use this MyPlate widget to find the actual number of calories your body needs:
STEP 3: Analyze and compare – Are you eating the appropriate amount of calories? What can you do to improve?
