Steps yesterday: 931 (SmartHealth watch); 839 (Withings Pulse)
BPM: 75
Blood oxygen level: 99%
Looked at the scale today and I'm now below 130 so my goal for the rest of the week will be to gain weight. I'm taking DebN's advice and leaving some room for error and insulation. I'm more worried about burning muscle than I am about gaining weight. I'm speculating that cardio may be doing too good a job of burning calories so I'm making the stepper the priority over the air walk trainer.
The sports physiologist/nutritionist I'm consulting with later this month sent me a health history form to fill out. It's a PDF. Now I've got to figure out how to fill it out.
Been hitting the whey protein and milk shakes hard to fight sarcopenia. Turns out there's no nutritional rationale for favoring nonfat over whole milk so I just cut my powdered milk bill in half. I run out of milk tomorrow so I will just double up on the whey protein since I have two tubs left. I'm also running low on Domino Light, but I may go on another sugar sabbatical even though I usually don't exceed the six teaspoons a day limit. Since I'm trying to gain weight, I may switch to regular sugar and save some money.
Time for my twice weekly seafood. It's either dumping shrimp into the lentil soup or cracking open a can of sardines.
Lessons learned from my first lentil soup: cook longer with more water. Some of the first batch was crunchy and burned

You may have to print it out unless it allows you to type into it.

The monitor isn't working on the only computer I have that works with a printer. I do have a tablet that may work with a printer.

there is a way to fill in PDFs on the computer, but not really sure how to go about doing that on a tablet.

There's an Android app called Print Hand I'm going to try. I also have a HP Stream Windows tablet that may natively recognize the printer. Or I may have to bite the bullet and get another monitor. :-(

this should tell you the best way to do it. It appears as though there's several apps for it.

Unfortunately, links are cut off in FatSecret comments. There is an Android and Fire app for Brother printers. I will have to figure out how to configure the printer for wireless printing.

Thanks. Where there is a will, there is a hack.

Well, gaining will be a lot easier than it is to have lost that weight. Enjoy. :)

JGBOOGADES, wish I could stuff my face with junk food, but I don't have any left in my pantry. 😢

Aw. I know the scale isn't going to budge tomorrow or will state a heavier amount with all the sodium I had today.

Sometimes our weight loss routine can get to where we might go too low. Right now I have to add a couple of snacks to my food each day and walk less than I used to do or I will lose weight instead of maintain my weight. I'm sure you are doing fine. Good luck whenever you go to the sports physiologist/nutritionist!

Deb_N,the only problem with eating vegetables is they're not very dense in calories. I ate four cups of broccoli and barely moved the needle towards hitting my RDI.
