Plans for setting calorie goalFor February, I will be joining the others in the group that are here for accountability while maintaining. I am adding 200 calories/day to my January target calories, for a total of 1680. For comparison, MFP stated that my maintenance calories should be 1610. Weβll see how this goes and adjust daily calorie goal if I begin to consistently gain.
Also, I will consider calories a βyesβ if either my food is under 1680, or my net is under 1400. Both of those numbers are 200 calories above my January numbers.Date: 2/1

***So though my βexerciseβ is on the lighter side, before I headed outside at 8:40 PM in 27 degrees, my apple watch said I had already done 602/510 move calories, 49/30 exercise min, 14/12 stand hours, 9,792 steps, 4.4 miles and 138 flights.
Today was also my βsecondβ run. Shorter than my first, but I needed to make sure my second run was a success so there would ever be a third. I did throw in a hill AND the one time I passed my friendly speed detector I sped up and got it to flash a β9β. :P

*** I owe a bunch of responses and will catch up today. At dinner time last night, I made gnocchi but scalded my hand and dropped my iphone into the recently boiling water when I tripped on the dishwasher door while carrying the pot to drain while calling for information to help get my advanced senior parents their COVID vaccinations. Amazingly, saved the gnocchi, iphone works (was in the hot water at least 5 minutes β Kudos to Apple), parents got their appointments, and I after a long evening trying to treat my hand I feel asleep with mega dose of advil and my wrapped hand in a bucket of cold water. This morning, I think it is going to be ok. Still tender, but I think I wonβt lose any skin. Last night, I tried to type on the computer but could not, and for my indoor cycling I did it will my hand raised over my head. The cycling increased blood flow made my hand burn like heck. BUT, no Pass day. I am saving those for something I enjoy!!!

Bundled up and walked the dog this afternoon, although the temperature hasn't risen above freezing all day. (In south Texas, this is very rare--even in February.) We're in for a rough few days, so say a prayer for our pipes and citrus trees!
Barely stayed within my calorie budget again today. This has not been my best week. But, on the plus side, I did put on a pair of jeans today that didn't fit me a year ago. Very excited to find they not only fit, but felt comfortable. That was a nice little motivation boost.8 -

Easy day exercise: Active stretching in the morning is more than 15 minutes and stable chores and horse care today. Rose the nurse helped with wound care on my horse's ear from another horse's bite. No lasting disfiguration, but a it requires daily cleaning and care. It's a good way for me to spend more time with the horse.
Calories: less exercise demands less calories, but I'm below my intake limit
Tracking: good.
Tomorrow is Valentine's Day but no big meals planned. It's not that kind of a holiday.3 -
13th February:
Difficult work day yesterday. Was examining in Lyon, an easy 2-hour train journey, plus 20 minutes metro to the venue. It had been snowing there and was freezing cold! Found that a colleague hadn't turned up and had to examine extra candidates, so missed the earlier train back and the later train had 3 hours delay! Waiting at cold station, all shops closed so no food. Home after 11pm, straight to bed!
Stayed under calories, hobbled for 20 minutes through snow and slush, finished tracking this morning!9
