Daily Food Diary – Day 243 of 365

Today is Day 243 of my Daily Food Diary. ๐Ÿ˜

Today is also Labour Day and a stat holiday in Canada.ย 

Tools of the trade… (Maybe my trade lunch ๐Ÿ™„)

Kudos to those who labour to provide the goods and services that we require.  And kudos to those who have in the past, and those who still do, dedicate their lives to ensure the safety, fair wages and benefits, decent working conditions, and fair/honest treatment of those in our workforce.  

Being employed in today’s work environment is far from perfect,ย  but fortunately improving work standardsย  is an ongoing process.

Happy Labour Day!

It is eight months since I began posting my Daily Food Diary. As I approach each new  month, I struggle to find another monthly focus.   This month (September) I have finally decided on calories used

Every month since February, I have counted my calories consumed and subtracted my calories used (by legit exercise).  This month, I am going to highlight all significant calories used – by exercise, housework, yardwork, Petcare, shopping, and the like.

Since being unwell the past few days, I need the motivation to get back to my regular level of activity.ย  Let’s see how that goes!
