The air fryer rotating basket didn't work so well on the fries!!!   They cooked but only a few had some slight browning.   The non-rotated potatoe wedges were a lot better.   

they seem to like batting around plastic grocery bags.

HAPPY, trying to post a pic of the cat stepladder  & it won't upload.   ok, took another. 

Girls, I nearly went into cardiac arrest.  The rotating basket came for the Air Fryer and I opened the rotisserie cookbook that came with the AF & out flops this promo for a free basket.   I paid $21 for mine.   BUT!   they want $18 for S&H and say it will take 6 weeks to arrive, so now my heart is beating at it's normal rate.

Lots of Flex Protien Crisps, tuna pouches and Quacker Crisps coming in.  More expected today and every 5 weeks thereafter. The Quacker Crisps average 80 cal, depending on the flavor.  Man, are those bags small and air inflated!  No more than a dozen or so tiny crisps inside.  And they cost a lot more than the big bags, but I have difficulty controlling the serving size.   The big bags of M&Ms don't work for me either,  even when I weigh or count them out.   Will have to stick with the 70 cal Fun Size. 

 Dang!   wanted to hit 30K on the Fitbit today and now I'll never know.   stepped into the shower with it and the poor thing is drying out.   mostly the ankle strap.   have done this many times.

Wish I had a better idea of how many calories I burn on this bike.   I'm on it a minimum of 5 hours a day.   I'm reading that's 200-350 per hour for my weight, but it simply cannot be.   I'd weigh 50 pds by now if it were so.

 I finally found 5 items for Amazon subscriptions that will give me 15% off already good prices. Bummer is they send the first batch soon at only 5% off.   thereafter it's 15% off.   I chose every 5 weeks for: BBQ Flex Protein Crisps, Buffalo Flex crisps, Buffalo tuna pouches, mixed tuna pouches, & Quacker Rice crisps.  Two boxes of the BBQ crisps & Quacker arrived yesterday.   So I may have too many.   if so, looks like I can easily suspend the subscriptions.   Calculated this will save ~$150 per year when I hit the 15% off.  yay! 

Maintaining weight.   A struggle somedays.   Was thinking this AM when they had blood drives in San Diego & you had to weigh at least 110.   You got free tickets to pro baseball and football games, So I put dumb bell weights in my pockets to get me to 110.   I was closer to 105 in my 30's. 
 

Second try ok.  DD getting flaky 

Pic came out long & weird!   Found a $5.99  for a better pc.   potato slicer at Harbor Freight plus a 20% off coupon!

Ate like a small pony yesterday and dropped .2 pds!   The power of hours and hours of exercise.  Hit the gym and the treadmill.   And did >30K bike "steps."  Stopped after the national news.   Too much for everyday, but I burned lots of calories. 

Paid for the fat sandwich!!!! Or part.   never could translate bike peddle "steps" to calories burned.   did 500-600 probably 

So the sandwich was wonderful! They use a Hawaiian sweet roll like Popeyes.   many of the calories must come from the sauce, above & below the meat.   some kind of flavored Mayo.   This is tne best chicken sandwich I've ever had! 

I am going surrender and buy the new BK spicy chicken sandwich.   Saw 930 Cals the first time I looked and now see everything from 730-850.   Even the BK site is confusing.  Pumping fast on my bike now while waiting for them to open at 11.   Will take 2 fat blocking pills, Alli, so I poop out some fat, probably ~100 Cals worth.   My diet is so low fat that I haven't taken any Alli for a while.  This one bottle from eBay has lasted years.   Only blocks 25% of the fat anyways.

 Made these with parmasean cheese, garlic powder & oil spray.   air fried. 

The bariatric scale in the Cat Room gave me a good scare when I weighed my fat cat.   I really don't like how this thing talks: Ready, Step On, reading, Thank You.   Forgot it says: Bye after a pause.   So I put the cat down and was watching him when I left the room.   just as I closed the door, the scale said Bye and the cat opened his mouth a little.   For a split second thought I needed a shrink.   you know, auditory hallucinations.

 Saw interesting article which I like because it shares my opinions.   Said Counting Calories works best, better than keto and intermittent fasting.   But is discussed calorie restriction counting.  25% less than needed resulted in greatest weight loss.   I try to do 15% less, 25% is too hard, but I am not going for rapid loss.   I'm after the disease related benefits.   Especially cancer and heart disease as best described in the book: The Switch. 

Just a final May weight.

 Creeping up!   Need to focus more.   

 This is the third time today I tried multiple times to upload a pic.   Can someone please upload any pic so I can see if it's DD or my device?   my device is uploading elsewhere.

Ok, tried again.  DD  not allowing me to upload pics today.

Can't upload picture!  Had a special one for HoP.   will try again later.   this site is glitchy today

Anyone ever tried an air fryer?  Getting  one at Ollie's Friday on my shopping day with the 20% off coupon they sent.

 So I asked the husband if we had an unused scale around the house so I didn't have to carry my Fitbit Scale into the  Cat Room for Fat Flash.   He brings me this huge scale, at least twice as big as any I've ever seen.   It's a bariatric scale he got for weighing his latest project car.   Does 700 pds and talks!   he uses it by weighing one corner at a time.  You depress a side bar and if says: Hello.   Then it says: Step on.   Then it says: Your weight is 3,725 pounds, but the digital display is accurate.  When you step off, or says: Goodbye.   All in a very weird female voice.   LOL  Matt thinks it needs a new battery.f

Same old same old re diet and exercise.

Struggling with the taxes.   been doing ~4 hours a day.   Should be done in a few more.   All the trading and switching around brokerage firms greatly complicated things this year.  Boring!   Looks like I underpaid ~10% and it's over 10 I'll have a penalty.   The husband can easily change his withholding online so will do so very soon.

Yay!   I have a new bar on the graph!   Going in the wrong direction and I couldn't care less.   I know I can and will get lower if I work at it.   Too many things going on now for me to focus on losing more, although I'd prefer to be at the 105-110 in days of yore.   Actually 100-105 in college.

investigating Amazon subscriptions.  Can't figure it out at first glance.   They have a regular price of 85 cents a bag for the Flex Protien Crisps which beats the $1 at Box.  Which I didn't pay.   Had the 15% off first order coupon & then got them free due to nutritional mislabeling.

But Amazon has 15% off on a subscription, which gets the crisps down to 72 cents.  Herein lies the rub.  Appears Amazon is saying the 15% subscription discount requires 5 different items each in a subscription.   I can only think of my tuna pouches.   Tried sodas and they don't appear to be an option.   I really don't understand how this works and need to look into it.
