I met with the president of the nutrition club at Cal Poly, Jaclyn Goldsmith. She introduced me to a website called "My Pyramid". It asks you to enter your weight, height, age, gender and rate of physical activity. It then tells you how many calories you should consume each day. Basically, I need to eat 2000 calories a day and limit my fat calories to 265. Eating 2000 calories a day isn't realistic with just one dollar a day. Jaclyn says that it would be best to eat a small variety of food groups each day rather than just a large amount from one food group.
