Last two days, yes x 3. Even the wine and cupcake didn’t put me over. 💪4

Whoop whoop; we made it to month's end
Go team!!! I'm yes x 3 today. Thanks to all of you for posting and supporting. @RangerRickL thanks for this group. I only had 4 or 5 pass days, which is huge for me. Onwards to July!!

Yes, yes, and yes!
Day late and a dollar short for the winner's circle this month, but a good way to end the month!6 -
I don’t know how I got here, the heaviest I have ever been! I’m so excited to say, since logging onto UAC June, I’m down 7 lbs!!!9

Forgot to say yes x 3!3

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? yes, walked for two hours and disinfected the public areas of my workplace for two hours, due to the pandemic
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? yes
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? yes
Pass days 4/35 -
I ate under for calories, logged it all, and did 20 minutes of walking4

Success! Feeling good tonight.
Exercise - Yes - felt a bit stronger than usual on a 5k with the running group tonight
Tracked - Yes
Calories - Yes, well under with no difficulty
I've lost 6 lbs this month! I suspect I've gained some muscle too, so those 6 lbs feel extra meaningful. Thank you to all of you for helping me stay on track!
July 1 is my birthday, and my plans for July 4 and 5 also involve a lot of temptation. July UAC is going to be a tough one for me. Looking forward to seeing you all there!

I think this is the longest I've managed to keep to consistent logging (almost a month) and the MFP community really helps keep me motivated and checking in. Thank you so much for organising this @RangerRickL. I feel like whatever I do, I always start out with good motivation and feeling committed, but sticking to it for a second month may be tougher - I hope carrying on with the UAC will keep me going. See you in July!
@fairy_daisy We’re here for you! You are crafting new habits, which took me a couple of months. I had to learn to spread my food out over the day. Log dinner BEFORE eating it, so I didn’t have an OOPS that could have been averted, spread protein throughout the day, etc.Ending the month with another pass day.
Not sure why, but I was just so hungry all day and felt completely drained of energy.
Started off tracking everything, but by this evening I gave up.. so definitely over the calories
Exercise was only a 1.5 hour dog walk.
But Wednesday is one of my running mornings, so I'll be starting the month off strong!
This group has been a huge help for me this month. I'm definitely motivated to be in the winners circle for July!
@ajdvegan
A 1.5 hour walk is exercise!!!
I wonder if you need a few more calories for your level of exercise. Marathon, not a sprint... 🐢 not a 🐇 and all that!
Have a great run tomorrow!4 -
Wow, amazing winners circle! Well done everyone! And well done everyone not in it, all winners, excellent!
Exercise yes 10 min quigong, 30 min yoga, 210 min cleaning, 50 min walk, 20 min gardening
Tracking yes calories yes3 -

@jillebean86 Happy Birthday (early!!)
I hope you have a fabulous day!
Re: July
You can do it! You set the calories for each day. My mantra: “Focus on the celebration & friends/family - not the food. It’s just food that I won’t specifically remember even 4 days later lol4 -

Yes x 3
💚
Even when I’m tired or sad or too hot, somehow I find myself at our front door (created a station there with everything I need for walking/hiking) putting on my hat, shoes, mask, grabbing water container, etc. and out I go. I always return happier & energized. I’m very grateful for UAC❣️8 -

@jillebean86, Happy Birthday!! I know what you mean about the July UAC. I have three days that I know of that will, most likely, be "over" days and I will not be logging, so they will definitely be Pass Days as well....a family barbecue at my sister's house celebrating my Dad's 85th and on overnighter at my BIL's cottage, where there will be lots of yummy cocktails!! I will try to get in a good walk beforehand, to bank as many calories as possible and to mitigate any damage on the scales, but other than that I am just going to enjoy. I may try to eat mindfully, as in reminding myself that a small serving of whatever tastes exactly the same as a large serving of whatever, and if I eat it slow, it will last just as long, but again, my main focus will be to just enjoy. For me, the UAC is about all the other days in between....how I manage those will determine if I have a good month or not, regardless of the Winner's Circle!!5
