For tracking consumption this first month, your digital camera could come in handy and prove telling. On Day 1, and the last day, take photos of:

Your open fridge and freezer.

Open cupboards/pantry.

Cooking oil bottle(s), jam, peanut butter, other basics (hygiene products).

-- you might also mark the start and ending levels on the bottles with a sharpie

TP supply


A picture is worth a thousand words.

This is an interesting project. Most of us aren't really aware of our rate of consumption (which makes it impossible to accurately plan for long-term sufficiency).

It was only this summer-fall that I actually tracked my dog's consumption of her food. With surprising result. A bag of her food lasted a lot longer than I had guessed it would.
