My plan for the next two weeksin the hope that I can still get below 150 before Thanksgivingis to average 350 exercise calories/day and to eat no more than 1200 calories/day.Im relieved to find that I wont have to do any creative bookkeeping to satisfy CK. It turns out one of the many odd quirks in the program is that you can set a custom exercise at 0 calories! I can now log my exercise without affecting my calorie count.
Its always annoyed me that the CK Manager software ...
Looking Back
Sunday, November 8th 2009
I couldnt figure out why it hasnt been going the way it did my first time round until I finally looked back through my CK Manager program.

Whatever you chose to call this full moon it's been absolutely spectacular the past few nights. It's still impressive this frosty morning.I spent several hours at the park yesterday even though it was chilly and we never got the sunshine that was forecast. I'd had a nasty sinus headache off and on for a couple of days and I knew if I stayed around the house I wouldn't get much done. My hike didn't start off well when I saw that someone had knocked down all the stone cairns again (why,why,w...
Stretching the Season
Wednesday, November 4th 2009
I got out on my town bike again yesterday and if the weather forecast pans out I may be able to ride again next week after the snow showers on Friday.I've also been washing windows and getting an inordinate amount of pleasure from the results because, as I think many people know, the longer you put it off and the more disgusting the windows get, the more dramatic the difference when you finally get them done.
I'm counting half the time I spend on these chores as exercise because it...
