Today I did Kelly Coffey Cardio Pump using the Raw channel and stopping at the end of the kickboxing portion, 32 minutes, heart rate 133/160, 170 calories, 3027 steps. I then did Cathe Lite Cardio Party timesaver 3 hi/lo, 34 minutes, heart rate 119/144, 113 calories, 2,46 steps. I also went to the Fitbit discover and did A popsugar standing abs 10 minutesm 27 calories, heart rate 102/121, 155 steps, and used an 8 and 10# dumbbell, finished with Fit Bit using discover and did Stand Tall yoga 20 minutes, 55 calories, heart rate 87/104. Fit Bit app set it at 55 calories when I pushed log workout upon finishing. I was curious as yesterday I noticed I got more calories through the app for the yoga than my watch, My watch said 27 calories. This yoga had 110 calories listed on the description. Total time was 86 minutes, 365 calories, 5,284 steps.
I looked up and read there was an update on the taurine in dog food and it is not always a problem. They seem unsure as sometimes the dogs are low in taurine and sometimes it may be the ingredients in the food like the lentils and chickpeas and other times it is probably something else. Also it is unsafe to supplement a dog with taurine unless the vet suggests it. I have avoided dog foods that had lentils and chickpeas and that sort of thing on the ingredients because those cause humans some distress quite often and I could see it causing a dog digestive issues and probably flatulence. So, I am still researching. I told my husband when he was playing with her and her toy and making her get some exercise that I think she looks like she may have lost a little of her body fat. Maybe the food has helped with that. I went back to adding some pumpkin to it. She seems okay now, but I am researching. I saw a list of several foods that were the best on ingredients and odd that the Science Diet and Royal Caanan that the vet sells were not on that list. There was descriptions of what made the foods a good option. Also, they said a lot of it is what they called exotic food ingredients that newer formulas are selling.
I went outside and swept yesterday only to get up this morning and all of these seed pods were everywhere. I swept up our walkway and down to the back of the house and they were still floating down as I cleaned them up. I finally gave up. Wiped down Gerties paws as this stuff all tracks in. My husband told me to order the leaf blower/vacuum we have in our Amazon cart. It would probably be faster and better for my allergies than picking up and sweeping. I still have leaves in back that need cleaned up. Tree pollen is an extremely high 11 scale today. I rarely see it that high. We were going to go out on the motorcycle to get out, but my husband decided to go in the car since the pollen would have been terrible for me.
I kind of wonder how many people are actually getting tested for the virus. A woman on our Nextdoor neighbor posted that she has only been out of the house for store trips two times, wore a mask and other than that walks outdoors and she "talked" to her doctor since she is sick and he says he is pretty sure she has the virus. Now my thought was, does he report it as a case without testing?? I just wonder quite often how accurate numbers are. Particularly if people do phone doctor consults. Do they just tell them to stay home unless they get really so sick they need to go to a hospital or emergency care?
Judy, glad your husband's appointment was cancelled. Kelly said something on her check in in answer to someone and getting on her raw channel and checking into it. I forgot what the name she gave of who handles her channel. Today I pulled it up and the fire tv went to sleep while I was looking up something on the laptop and when I came back it said it could not load. I retired and it loaded and I was up and running. I still need to check in on the facebook group today.
Valerie, we pay for a 55 dollar a month package of Hulu. We dropped Directv now because they raised their price for the same type of package to 60 dollars a month. My husband does not like the format of Hulu as well as the other though. I think we have some nice days coming this week.
Carolyn, for grains(as tolerated) buckwheat, quinoa, and wild rice. Legumes (as tolerated) lentils and pinto beans. Some people can handle these foods in small amounts and some cannot. I am finishing off the dairy yogurt that I have, but when I go to the store I will get something else. I like Forager Cashewgurt and SO Delicious Coconut milk yogurt. I have made my own, but unless you use a thickener it is pretty thin or you have to use a high fat coconut cream. It is yummy, but would not do for my goal for heart health. I am not real fond of almond milk products, but will use them if I have to. I always feel that the step part of Intensity is the highest intensity portion of that workout. Probably wise to leave it at that.
Deb, yes, prayers that that works. I heard about that on Fox news late last night. I would love to see them come up with something that can stop this insanity and save lives. Nursing home really seem to be hit hard. So sad. The book I have gives guidelines and some subs. Also some need to avoid nightshade vegetables and some do not. I had to really hunt because in the RA books I found the nutrition needs were different than ones for just anti-inflammatory diets which tended to allow more things than the RA protocol is. There are not a lot of focused on RA books that I could find. Today I ate my yogurt anyway with berries and protein powder and then a turkey teriyaki rice bowl that I had made, but without the rice. I just dumped some kale in it to get the green veggies. I am about to the point of needing to go to the store for fresh produce again. It is 90 today. The next few days our highs should be nice in the 60's . I have not seen many children out in the stores. Of course going at 2 am they are probably home in bed. I cannot imagine anyone wanting to take chances with their children. Best to take chances on pick up if you have to . My husband offered to take my daughter shopping and leave the children with me overnight, but she does not want to even do that. She keeps ordering from Walmart pick up and gets no meat. I need to make a couple of suggestions because they seemed to have only larger packages of ground beef, so if she orders a pound they won't sub for something the same or lower cost.
