So today and yesterday were absolutely lovely. Sunny and warm. It was nice but now I wish I were down in the heat of Florida. I'll be sad to leave the luke warm weather in NC for the frigid weather in NY, but happy to be home. This morning I had a Resting Metabolic Rate Test, or RMR. I had to fast for 12 hours and then go over to the Duke Center for the Living where they did the test. They put me in a semi-dark room and put a hard plastic bubble around my head. I then waited, sat still and rested, but didn't fall asleep, for 30 minutes. The test measures your breathing and somehow they are able to calculate the amount of calories you would burn in a day if you just sat on your butt. My RMR was completely average. This information is helpful for planning out calories and exercise once I get home. It was nice to speak to my grandparents and everyone who is in Florida right now. I'm sure you are all going to have a blast. I am tired tonight, but am looking forward to the Olympics of the evening. I've had a lot of fun watching them lately. Steak night tonight! But more importantly (in my opinion), dessert night! hehe.
