3/2
1 pass day
Exercise, yes. As out of my normal routine that it was I went to the gym before grocery store to get a walk in.
Wouldn't have done that without this challenge.
Calories, yes due to using my exercise calories.
Teacked everything as best I could. Had to do a lot of baking today. I think I actually over calculated.
Funny thing is I really didn't enjoy the cookie dough or cookies as i would have a month ago.
I gave myself an allowance of one bite of cookie dough and one cookie from each batch.
I didn't even do that much!6 -

Although, I went to work from 9-5, it was a very good day to catch up on some pressing projects. Since my wife, Rose, is in the desert condo in AZ and I'm here in Chicago, it's easy to be productive. On the other hand, I'll be flying out this coming Thursday to see her in Arizona.
My report:
It was a very good day.
Calories: nicely under my limit
Exercise: 25 minutes of Pilates and back strengthening exercise, plus, 25 minutes treadmill at 4.5 mph7 -
Yes to all 3!
10 mile treadmill run this morning. Ending the day with over 30,000 steps.
Stayed under calories and tracked it all!6 -
Strength training this afternoon. Left plenty of calories for the evening as we had a friends 1920’s themed 50th birthday celebration at a country club. Appetizers and desserts. I cut it close on calories but made good choices and didn’t overdo it.5

It’s hard to get outside of your own headspace when you are sick and down, but you will get through this. It’s temporary and you are committed to making healthy changes in life. Just the fact that you are still logging shows your dedication.
UAC is all about health, taking care of yourself while you get through shingles is your health challenge this month. Keep checking in everyday, stick with us and every single one of us will stick with you.
We’ve all heard it around MFP a million times, be kind to yourself. Speak to yourself how you would speak to someone you love.
That all being said, it’s ok to be frustrated!!! Shingles suck☹️

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, 30 minutes on the elliptical plus a LOT of extra steps yesterday
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? yes. We went to my mother in law's for an amazing dinner, so I put in the extra activity yesterday to give myself a buffer - and I was mindful of how much of anything I ate or drank, while still enjoying the meal. That in and of itself was kind of an NSV, to go out for a nice meal and enjoy it but still pay attention to what I was consuming, instead of just eating and drinking whatever.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? I did! I had to make educated guesses for some items, but I think I got it pretty close overall.5
