My calorie rule for January UACDefining, for myself more than anything, what is the definition of my daily calorie goal. For Oct and Nov, I used 1430 and not eating back exercise. December, I raised that to 1480 with no additional calories for exercise. For January, I am going to try a blended rule; either Food calories under 1480, or Net calories (ie Food minus exercise) under 1200. So, if my exercise burns less than 280 on a given day, there is no added calories. BUT, if I exercise more, I have the option additional food OR if I overeat, I have the option of exercising more to not use a pass day. This flexibility was not something I allowed in my previous rounds. Once I exceeded my goal calories, regardless of my exercise burn. Also, I am defining that I am using the MFP estimate for the caloric burn from exercise. I know I could get different numbers elsewhere, but I am going to use only the one source – good or bad.Date: 1/1

*** As the day wound down, and my tongue to my ear was still numb from dental implant surgery, it was temping to do no exercise at all. But I have no passes left and so few days to stick it out to the winner circle. 22 minutes on the indoor cycle is not great, but I did it. Good thing is at least I am not being tempted to nibble past my calories.

*** So for my first time, I am giving myself a gift and allowing myself to count unstructured exercise ( ie no plan and no timers running). I have been lifting and moving boxes all day after starting by shoveling the access for my MIL’s movers. Back to her condo tomorrow. Could I do 20 minutes of formal exercise? Yes, but I have a couple hours of prep for tomorrow still to do tonight and for today, that is the priority. Will be there 4 out of the next 5 days, and then hopefully after that I can get my own home back in order. :P
Pass #3
Remaining passes: 0
I, too, my friend, started this month allowing myself to count " activity," which I do, ALL day, as counted towards my formal exercise! We both are at the point, and we are close to our goal weight! We no longer need to push that hard towards formal exercise, but rather keep tracking and moving our bodies daily! Good for you and, yea, for us!1 -
