Eight hours of sleep with one wide awake episode. I drank four cups of weak coffee. I'm sticking to my plan of getting up an hour later and using the bed only for sleeping.
Morning plank and ten minutes first thing in the morning on the Air Walk Trainer to burn off glycogen.
Thursday was an up day on the Alternate-Day Diet (eat all I want) .
Decided I will continue to weigh in Saturday, once a week, while adding new numbers from the new scale, including body age, based on resting metabolism. My sister says real world functional abilities are more significant, though. I agree, but there are plenty of functional people who are walking heart attacks waiting to happen. Body age is calculated by using your weight, body fat percentage, and skeletal muscle percentage to produce a guide to where your body age is above or below the average for your actual age .
Cardio: one hour on the Air Walk Trainer yesterday, plus five minutes every hour to offset the effects of sitting. Steps: 823. My new daily average to surpass is 733. My record on the Striiv Smart Pedometer is 1,781.
Time spent on organizing the kitchen to date: four hours, 15 minutes.

The Omron tracks fewer indicators than the Tanita, but is less expensive. I like the fact that the readout is large and built into the handle (my eyesight isn't that great). How do you like yours so far?

I remember looking into that one actually, it does sound very nice. I liked the idea of it measuring from hand to foot rather than foot to foot, seems like it would get a much more accurate measurement that way.
So far I have been enjoying mine. It think after a month or two I will have more of an opinion about its accuracy with the body composition features.

"I think after a month or two I will have more of an opinion about its accuracy with the body composition features." Me too.
