Pass day #2 for Sunday, I enjoyed mimosas and couldn't track a few of the appetizers and dinner accurately.
But yes x 3 for Monday. I'm about to prelog dinner and a snack, and had a really long dog walk for the first time in months right after work. FINALLY have cooler weather and can go with the dog outside in the afternoon! That means a lot more calories are about to be burned!6 -
Ack! 2 days in a row of no exercise.4

@FibroHiker even if you have too many pass days to qualify for the Winner's Circle, you can still stay in the challenge and make the Champions list!
You can even adjust your calorie goal to a reasonable one now and then keep logging and checking in here as practice for November.
I also am disqualified with 4 pass days, but am continuing to track and check in here
Speaking of that, today was yes x3 and under by a bit so a good balance to yesterday's pass day7 -
@Fibrohiker Why not adjust your limit tomorrow and just keep going?

Everyday, I go back and read prior day's posts. I often get mixed up and do my daily report on a prior day...oops.
I just did it again.
Anyway, today was a 3 x yes day.4 -

Honestly I think I set my limit much too low. I had hoped that would help me continue to lose but it's a bit too low to keep going for 28/31 days in a month. Only one pass day was used because I didn't get to exercise. The others were because I was over my calorie goal for the day. Lesson learned.
I may be back in November with a more realistic calorie goal.
Off to do some jog,/walk intervals.
Stick around for the rest of the month. I have never made th winner’s circle but find the support helps me stay on track for most of the month.5 -

Pass Days: 3 left
I know this may sound crazy to some, but I really do enjoy listening to music and walking on my treadmill.
@ginadomaszewicz I love listenimg to music when I walk. Upbeat music makes me walk so much faster and futher. 1 1/2 hours is a lot on a treadmill. Hats off to you.
On the comment about our husband's a few days ago...mine thinks I'm crazy at times..like when we travel and I walk for 30+ minutes while waiting for a plane (back in the good old days..). When we travel I walk at the rest stops..when we are at hotels I walk the halls and stairs to get my exercise. Or go to the gym to walk on the treadmill (not my favorite). ..ect. However he is very suportive for the most part.. I am so thankful for that but he does shake his head a lot at my methods. I have to get creative at times to get the exercise in. But I feel so much better when I am consistently active.

@FibroHiker
Oh, I had to do that!! In fact, in UAC, YOU set your daily calorie Goal at the beginning of each day. YOU know what you are trying to accomplish!
Please consider staying! You are wonderful & who can resist a delicious dinner like that with DH!
Best,

Tracked all Yep
Walked like a beast LOL over 2 hours, 13.5K steps, listening to a guided meditation, taking some photos, singing and racing to some favorite, fast songs, and listening to an inspiring live art talk. Better to walk - at any speed - than sit for any of these!
Calories under 260

So needed! 🌻 Thank you so much, Rick❣
Pass day. And what a pass! I ate for two (days). However, I jogged for 1/2h in the park, instead of just waiting to pick up the kids from their trainings. 🙌
Scale surprized me this morning, though. Looks like I did retain water 😯 due to more intensive training at the end of last week.🤔 I am back down, inspite of eating so much yesterday. Just have to be super careful now, that I got a second chance. 😄
No more passes left, but not giving up just yet!
