Daily Food Diary – Day 363 of 365

Today is Day 363 of my Daily Food Diary.  THREE days and I will have fulfilled my commitment to maintain and post my Food Diary for one full year!

Every single day during this past year, I have benefited from this exercise.  My Daily Food Diary WIN yesterday, was having the knowledge, practice, and incentive to switch out of holiday mode and serve up a healthy supper of fresh salad with baked chicken.   😀

Outside of my Daily Food Diary wins, I continue to acknowledge my basic life wins every day. 

Today, my Daily WINS include:

1) The variety and quality of foods  that we have available to us.. With each trip to the super market,  we have access to fresh, frozen or packaged dairy products, vegetables, fruits, meat, baked goods and more.   Our foods are produced locally or shipped to us from around the globe.  There are  people the world over  that cannot conceive of the abundance that we too often, and too easily, take for granted.   For us, our food supply is a daily win in our lives. 🥦🍖🍪

2) My waist! I know that is odd, but for too many years I struggled to bend over because my gut got in the way, I struggled to sit because my gut pressed into my lungs, and I struggled to buy clothes because properly fitted clothing is not designed for narrow hips and shoulders and big bellies.  🤦‍♀️

3) Peace and quiet…  at the busiest, noisiest  times of my life – I cherished moments of peace and quiet.  I craved silence.  Nowadays, it is almost an obsession.  I love those random moments of silence in my day to day life.  I notice them, I appreciate them, and to this day, I  absolutely  cherish  them.  🤫
