  • I fell off the mfp logging bandwagon for a few days but kept doing the elliptical--maybe 13.30 miles once, twice between 46-49 miles per day, yesterday 31.70--I can put details another time. It really bugged me that mfp started to change my totals--I put the exact (rounded) minutes (83+ yesterday) and calories that my…
  • Fell off the mfp logging bandwagon for a few days, but have been doing elliptical underdesk--maybe one day 13.30 miles, a couple of days 46-49+ miles each, yesterday 31.70 miles (83:16 and 765.2 cals). Today mpf bugged me by 'correcting' the calories--my machine says exactly the calories, times, speed, distance listed, and…
  • That is kind of you. I am sorry for your loss and hope you can still have nice memories and maybe even dreams with your beloved pet. My belief is that they still 'live' for us as long as we remember them and the love we shared. Yesterday was elliptical underdesk 27.77 miles (so far 321.4 of 500)
  • Thank you. I took Latin in high school and college and still (a million years later!) am really good at etymology and word origins and meanings because of it. I'm glad someone is still studying it!
  • Thank you. I understand and at least come by daily pretty much while doing other things. It's nice to get to hear from really nice-seeming folks.
  • yesterday elliptical underdesk 27.77 miles (68:04, 670.5 cals) and arm bike 12:44 (414 revolutions, 59 cals). I hope to get a little/lot more arm bike in, since that tones the whole thing since I do it with my legs up off the ground and it works abs, core everything--life is giving me excuses to wimp out but I am trying!
  • Our little cat passed away peacefully at home yesterday after a hard week or so. Have been okay and getting spiritual insights about It All and doing my best to stay healthy and well. If anyone wants to friend me for mutual support, please do. This is a lovely group here, thanks and best wishes
  • yesterday 44.34 miles on elliptical underdesk (so far 293.63 of 500). Our poor little cat did pass peacefully, so soon I can get back to better schedule in general--
  • yesterday elliptical underdesk 44.34 miles (106:00, 1070 cals) and arm bike 5:57 (25 cals, 175 revolutions). Our poor little cat did finally pass so may have chance to get back to better schedule.
  • Yesterday elliptical underdesk 43.21 miles (so far 249.29 of 500). Poor little cat still in middle of passing on so schedule messed up--
  • yesterday underdesk elliptical 43.21 miles (109:34, 1043 cals) and arm bike 4:11 (252 revolutions, 33 cals). Cat still ill.
  • [/quote]My son used to like them- I always rinsed them off before giving them to him. Mac and Cheese- his favorite that he makes for himself at least once a week but cooks it the way I taught him- add real cheese and some garlic powder to it [/quote] I know what I'm making tonight--mac and cheese and garlic, and chickpeas…
  • Some are still made with lead wicks too, even though it is illegal in the US. Some imported ones have them. I buy unscented everything too.
  • Please check with your specialist first, but I have had great luck using an underdesk elliptical (just the pedals of bike) as an arm bike--it sits on the kitchen table and I do it while looking out the window at the yard. If it is safe to do, it can help with core strength and toning in a surprisingly short time. Again,…
  • yesterday elliptical underdesk 32.29 miles (78:06, 779.6 cals) and arm bike 8:48 (65 cals, 458 revolutions)
  • Yesterday elliptical underdesk 32.29 miles (so far 206.08 of 500)
  • Me too! If you're still around here, please friend me. I have trouble being able to physically/mechanically friend people due to some sort of mechanical thing with my computer. Thanks!
  • I usually do the underdesk elliptical for an hour or two a day while reading mysteries, maybe six days a week (old injuries allowing), but have a very ill kitty so have been unavailable to do much this week. I can aim for about 400 miles for the whole month of November, and already have done 1st 29.23 miles, 2nd 51.63…
  • No idea how old I am but suspect my birth certificate would say something that sounds very high to me! I just rejoined this week and am happy to have people friend me since somehow the friend function is not working for me. I am able to accept friend requests but it doesn't show me where to send them--probably security…
  • Having trouble adding friends (maybe my security settings? I try and try), but if you'd like to add me I'd be happy.
  • Still dealing with extremely ill cat so sleep and free time etc. iffy, so yesterday only underdesk elliptical 26:35 (290.5 cals, 12.03 niles) and arm bike 3:47 (24 cals, about 174 revolutions).
  • Other than getting out of bed (very ill kitty keeps me up off and on all night and day this week), I am trying to keep filling in diary here (rejoined this week and always looking for pleasant no-drama friends). I try to do at least enough elliptical underdesk legs and arm bike to keep the core strength going. Oh, and…
  • I'm in the ballpark of that age and just rejoined--vegetarian who does a lot of indoor exercise and tries not to eat much junk but does anyhow. I cannot see how to friend or send requests--tried profile, activity, this and that, so if anyone wants to send me one I should get it. Thanks
  • Day before last 115:24 on elliptical underdesk (46.07 miles, 1112 cals) and arm bike 10 mins and 52 cals. Yesterday nothing due to veterinary emergency. Might get back to it today--we'll see.
  • I only rejoined myfitnesspal yesterday, so this month I will fill in the food and exercise every day and not give myself a hard time if I have to skip a day here and there for health and sanity reasons!
  • I'm longtime vegetarian too, but yeah cheese is great and for me hard to give up. Good for you for giving it up if you want. We try a lot of the vegan cheese in our house and yeah some is so foul and not even organic or really healthy, plus peeyew smelling. Those round nice expensive ones--name forgotten--are good, mostly…
  • Yesterday did 82:43 minutes of underdesk elliptical bike while reading (841.0 cals, 34.83 miles) and 8:18 mins 'arm bicycle' (on similar underdesk bike on table) for 44 cals. and 309 revolutions. The arm bike thing does MIRACLES for core toning and abs, no joke. I keep my legs off the floor when I do them and the extra…
  • I am not a drinker although my whole family of origin was/is. I'm happy to be your friend if you want. Good luck with it. I was thinking about how glad I am that I never became a real drinker--if I had done it for the past 40 or so years, even if I only spent $50.00 a week on it, that would have been over $100,000.00 down…
  • I'll be your buddy if you want. I just rejoined after having been off MFP for a few years, and am trying to eat healthier, reduce sodium, and do well. Longtime vegetarian but happy to be buddies with anybody trying to eat better.
