That was interesting. According to the calculator, I can lose on 1333 calories a day. I try for 1200 so that makes me feel good that a little overage won’t slow me down. My maintenance level was 1800 calories. I’ve rounded that number because I didn’t write it down. And since I’m not planning to just maintain, it wasn’t important.0

Me:
Light exercise 1436
Sedentary 1189
Okay, so getting on the treadmill buys me a little over 200 calories!!0 -
DH rousted me from bed at 6 am so I could go feed before "heavy snow".
I was dubious about feeding in the dark but it wasn't too bad. The worst part was I'm responsible this weekend for all the colonies and finding two of them on my own for the first time in the dark wasn't the easiest.
It is now almost 11 am, I'm sleepy and we've yet to see a flake.
Someone owes me big time (DH? weather channel?). LOL!

My goal for exercise for the week was five days with a minimum of 30 minutes each day. This morning, according to the FitBit, I got in 6 days with a total amount of 4 hours and 23 minutes.0

Maryanne--Isn't it amazing how "few" calories are burned in 45 minutes to an hour? A minute on the lips may mean an hour of exercise to compensate.
We had the temperature drop but just rain. I feel for those in the Mid West from what I saw on the Weather Channel and possibly the Northeast in a few hours.0 -

For some reason I get a kick out of this crafter's cat prints on book pages. I have several of them.

Oh, that poor kitty! Good that he was adopted by you!
A dusting of snow this morning. I am not thrilled. Very little sleep last night.0 -
I awakened at 4am and couldn't go back to sleep so I got up and started working in the house. There is a room in which I'm moving stuff around getting ready to put organizing shelving in it.
Twelve days until a new month and see how much progress has been made during this month. Yesterday I got in 64 minutes of exercise and burned 163 calories in the first session of 34 minutes and 113 in the second session of 30 minutes. The heart rate was lower in the second session,

Boy, you're WAY ahead of me this morning. I just stumbled out of bed in the last hour.0 -
I'm still working on cleaning out the freezer and am sort of planning meals around that. Last evening we had sole and I discovered to my surprise that our Sammy likes sole (none of our current crew have a lot of interest in people food)! He's DH's cat, without a doubt, but for some reason he always sits next to me on the floor when he likes the smell of dinner.0

I tried the NS high protein pancakes today. I like wonderslim better - lighter in color and fluffier. Wonderslim has mostly better specs.
NS - 160 calories, 10 grams protein, 1 gram saturated far, 3 grams fiber
Wonderslim - 120 calories, 12 grams protein, no saturated fat. 5 grams fiber
Wonderslim does have 1 more gram of sugar0 -
I haven't tried the NS pancakes but I really like the Wonderslim pancakes.
Midnight is giving me that "I want a treat" look.0 -
I slept in this morning as well. I usually wake up around 7:30 but today I didn’t open my eyes until 8:45. I guess I needed some extra sleep.
Today I’m doing laundry and maybe some cleaning. I noticed yesterday that my tables really need to be dusted. I absolutely hate dusting, so that’s one chore that I put off as long as possible. When I was a child dusting was always my chore, so I suppose that is where my dislike stems from. We lived in West Texas where dust storms were almost a daily occurrence, so dusting had to be done frequently. That isn’t an issue where I live now, but I still hate dusting.0 -
I didn't sleep in but got up super early. This enabled me to do a task I've been delaying. I now have the new organizer shelves put in the enclosed porch. I am not a "happy homemaker" so I do it when the motivation hits.
I just finished 51 minutes of pedaling while watching part of a 600 Lb. marathon which is a rerun of the new season. I must be getting adapted to this as my heart rate is gradually dropping while doing it. I burned 191 calories which is not enough to take care of breakfast.0 -

Several of mine try to jump up on my desk for treats/attention. I use the computer air to discourage. But now Jack's doing it and after all he's been through I just can't discourage him. So right now I have a large black cat on my desk!0 -

I dislike cleaning. Period.0 -
Apropos of nothing. Linda Spangle has a new program. I'm tempted. An email a day might get my attention. And it's cheap in January.

I didn’t get up until 8:30 today too. I have my second load of laundry going and I’m picking up clutter. If I get really ambitious, there’s always vacuuming0

Linda--I have that 100 Days of Weight Loss book. It was good but stored on my original Kindle. I just had it transferred to the Kindle I am currently using.0

Pam--Where cats are concerned, we know who is in control; it isn't us!!
Maryanne--That is a good price but I'm trying to watch my expenditures. It may not last, but so far I'm doing fine with the food and exercise. Because of the age and metabolic level, I may not lose much but I'm focusing more upon healthier habits and the cardiologist wants me to exercise.
I work tomorrow so I won't be posting until the evening.
