Exercise Lite - Day 7

A.M.

20 crunches
40-second plank pose (ugh) -- this is harder than I thought

P.M.

35 jumping jacks
10-minutes on elliptical -- still 1 minute all out, but I've extended the moderate pace to 4 minutes and lessened the cool-down portion to 2 minutes
40-second plank pose -- yep, still harder than I thought

So, I had my resting metabolic rate (RMR) computed (just google it, there are available RMR calculators on the net, and it's free!). It's only about 1,166 which translates to a daily calorie requirement of about 1,600-1,700. Nyarks!

I'm probably averaging 2,000-2,500. But I can lessen that if I stop eating my Mom's baking experiments. If I diet, I'd have to really think about what I'm cutting back on.

Because ice cream is essential to my sanity.:)
