It is 70 Days since I started my Daily Food Diary. That is 10 WEEKS! Whoo hoo! Only forty two more weeks to go.
This month, I have gone beyond tracking calories and have been tracking how many grams of protein I consume in a day.
In January, I learned how little water I drank. I am still working on it, but I am doing better.
In February, I realized how little it takes to eat a LOT of calories. After one stop for fast food, I realize how easy it would be to consume thousands and thousands of extra calories a day.
In March, I am surprised at how much protein there is in our typical meals. I am not concerned, because I am trying to build muscle, but I am shocked.
For April, I am seriously thinking of tracking my (processed) sugar intake. I am not sure I want to know, but I do know it is a problem. 🤦

* Six ounces of lean roast beef is a bizarre amount of roast beef, but I powered through and finished it off! I am sure I used to order 6 oz steaks back in the day, but those days were a while ago! 😯
That’s it for today. Take care and have a great day! ❤️☺️
