Create a personal Mediterranean Diet goal using the SMART framework (shown below again for reference) and start a food journal to track your daily intake for the next week. Checkout out the free one that’s included in the course to get started!
SMART:
- Specific: Be clear about what you want to achieve. Instead of a vague goal like “eat healthier,” specify “include at least two servings of vegetables in my dinners.”
- Measurable: Ensure your goals are quantifiable. For example, “reduce red meat consumption to once a week.”
- Achievable: Set goals that are within reach considering your current lifestyle and resources.
- Relevant: Your goals should be relevant to your health needs and lifestyle aspirations.
