Daily Food Diary – Day 151 of 365

This is Day 151 of my Daily Food Diary. This is also June 1st! 😁💞

In May,  I was tracking my  Total Net Calories – calories consumed minus calories burnt exercising each day.  I was also tracking my Saturated Fats consumption.

In June, I will keep tracking my calories, but instead of tracking anything detrimental or beneficial, I am going to set a goal of eating 7 servings of fruit and/or vegetables each day.   The recommended number of servings, per Canada’s food guide ranges from 7 to 10, depending on age and sex.  For women over 51, seven is the magic number.

We will see how that works out!  I love almost all vegetables, but I am no fan of fruit!

According to the Weather Network, we can expect another wildfire smokey day today.  Fortunately, it was fairly clear at 6 am so Molly and I were able to spend an hour outside cleaning up, feeding squirrels, and watering the plants and seeds I planted this week.  Molly wasn’t much help but she had fun stealing my mini plastic watering can, tossing it up in the air, batting it around with her paws AND chewing on the spout whenever she caught it. 😜
