When I am out of town at a conference, I tend to eat a little (actually a lot) more than normal. This, in combination with a lack of exercise, means I can put on about a pound a day. This is not a good thing.
It turns out that the Government has just the thing to help me out – the new Food Pyramid. It appears the new pyramid takes into account some changes in thinking about nutrition and the reality that nutritional needs vary with age, sex, and activity level. The only way to provide everyone their own chart is provide access to a dynamic web site that will generate the chart for you (see following – this will also work for you if you happen to be 56, a male, and exercise regularly under normal cirumstances).
There is no coffee group! I will also have to figure out how much milk is contained in my cafe au lait.
