In my absence Dec. 5/13

Hello all,
The cold I have avoided during marks time has caught up with me. Sorry I will not be with you today. What follows are instructions to you and to your TOC.

• The TOC will write the 4 steps to a good short term goal on the board (tabbed in text on desk).
• If you have not already created your clearly stated and specific goal do so now.
• Ensure that your plan is point form, chronological and measureable.
• Check how your are doing ongoingly and how you will define ultimate success. 
• Please remember that these are short term and so must be able to complete in 2 months.
• Again, if you have not already submitted a plan please do so by the end of the block.

• Next, The TOC will hand out Food charts (on my desk)
• For one week you are to keep track of all you eat and drink. This is not a matter of pleasing anyone but rather just for you to get a real picture of your habits. 
• Start with today and then hand it in Dec.13/13
• Please indicate any supplements you take (vitamins/teas)
• give some idea of serving size.

• Next, the TOC will hand out the Canada Food Guides (on my desk and more on back shelf) These are for you to keep. We will use them a lot so hang on to them.
• If there is time you can do a general review of how to read the guide.
• If there is time, declare your favorite foods and check where they fit on the guide. What sort of nutrients do they possess.

I wish you all a healthy day!
Ms.S
