Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes, a little too low per the app, but most days I don’t eat meat or dairy so I eat a lot of fruits, veggies, beans, and starches that are not very calorie dense. I don’t plan to eat anymore today because I’m satisfied.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes 🙂3 -
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? YES (snow shoveling, or, rather, scraping ice off driveway/sidewalk -- don't want my dad to fall)

Unfortunately, there is an overpopulation of white tail deer in our area...not uncommon to have 5-15 of them in our yard at different times of the year. This was a mother and fawn in our back yard last spring. We see deer in our back yard most every evening.fitphoenix wrote: »March 1
@w8goal4life, your property looks lovely! I had no idea deer simply slept that near to human habitation and kind of in the open.

March 1st
Exercise: Yes - walked from the train to uni (40 mins) and from town to the train (20 mins)
Calories: All good - felt very satisfied actually after two grain salads for lunch and dinner (I didn't plan it that way - there was catering at lunch, but they were both different and delicious!!) And a big bowl of fruit. Need to think about what it was about it that really curbed my cravings so I can recreate it!!
Logging: All good.
Good new month luck everyone!5 -

Exercise yes, 10 min quigong, 30 min leslie sansone, 20 min yoga, 120 min cleaning, 2 x 20 min walk to& from work
Tracking yes
Calories yes3 -
Exercise- yes, 30 mins cardio 30 mins weights
Tracked- yes, though I didn't weigh everything but I have over estimated to be safe
Calories- yes, though not the best choices today as about 50% came from alcohol. I used my exercise calories which I don't usually do.
Weekends are gonna be tough I think! Using exercise to up my calories will be key.3 -

Pass day.
So I have noticed in February once I hit my "disqualified" mark that I started slacking. It appears from my spreadsheet everything went downhill around valentines day. Then the following 2 weeks after that have been stressful from my MBA class. Luckily my lightbulb came back on this morning as I was "catching up" with Thursday and Friday's tracking entries in my spreadsheet. I have been more stressed due to not being on the treadmill this week, and slacking on tracking and eating whatever was quick.
Learning to have a healthy lifestyle is teaching me not only do I need to learn what healthy is, and track calories, but I also need to learn how to deal with setbacks in a more healthy mindset, versus all or nothing thinking of "I'll get back on track in March" and let things slide until then.
On a positive note, January I used 21 pass days and in February I used 16. March goal is to use fewer pass days than February and not go in this all or nothing thinking I did in February. I need to focus on progress, not perfection. Slow and steady wins the race
