Daily Food Diary – Day 202 of 365

by annemariedemyen, posted in 2025, Health and Fitness

It is Day 202 of my Daily Food Diary.  202 Days without a single miss! 🙌

There is nothing earth shaking happening in my life today, but a few things of note…

First… Molly and I had another win yesterday!  Dan was golfing and we had a repairman come to check out our water heater.   When I saw him pull up in his van, I called Molly and put on her leash so I could ensure control while he was here.  She’s never been aggressive – but she is big and she can show attitude.

No attitude yesterday.. Molly sat beside me quiet and well mannered! 👍

Second… Yesterday, despite humidity of  100%  I had a Molly walk, did my morning aerobics, did weights and cardio and met my Net Calorie Goal.   Today we got up to a Smoke Risk of 11 (Very Bad) and humidity of 94%.  The smoke risk has dropped to a 7, which is still too high for my lungs to handle especially with the humidity.  No walk today. 😢

Third… It has been 18 days since I started taking collagen supplements.  My hands are definitely less crampy and painful than they have been for decades.  I don’t know what other benefits I may see in the months to come, but I do know that when it comes to supplements, vitamins, and medications – they don’t work unless I do.  So, I am doing the best I can to get the most I can out of these collagen supplements – weather permitting.

    1. All is well with you and Molly, wonderful!! The humidity really sucks doesn’t it? I suppose its better than two feet of snow to shovel, Anne. 😂

    2. Thank you, John. As long as our temps stay above minus 20 c, the snow is way kinder to my lungs than rain and smoke. And I love to shovel snow! Snow blowing not so much, but maybe it will grow on me. 😊

    3. I think of you often when the smoke and/or humidity is high, Anne. I have a dear friend from nursing who also suffers from lung issues in her retirement. I can’t imagine how frustrating and frightening that must be at times, when the environment doesn’t cooperate. Take good care, Anne and a wise choice to stay indoors when you have to.

    6. Thank you for your concern, Terry. I stay in if I can smell or see smoke. I push through the humidity. Smoke is way worse, but the worst is thinking of the people right in the fire zones. Especially if they have respiratory issues. I can’t imagine! 😢
