Chart Your Progress Put your calorie counter away -- focusing on the kind of food you eat is the easier and more effective way to keep your diet in check. Use this chart to help keep track of what types of food you're eating and when. By week's end, you'll see at a glance how balanced your diet really is. The target goals, which are in the column on the right, are from the USDA's food guide pyramid. (For descriptions of serving sizes, see the riddles of the Sphinx.)
