Happy Sunday wherever you are!
We are in the Southwestern state of Arizona. Here are some lovely photos of a beautifully landscaped desert home.

@RangerRickL Thank you for those beautiful photos! I was hoping you'd let us have some peeps into the beautiful desert landscapes of Arizona!
Wish everybody a happy, relaxed, stress-free Sunday, filled with good food (but not too much) and healthy exercise and, where possible, real or virtual contact with friends and family.
Here are some pics of sunset in Montpellier. Look carefully for snow on top of the hills in the background.

Morning run then duty at church and an afternoon watching series with my puppy again. Reasonable food choices which fit in my budget, but not being super strict with myself this weekend. Glad for the time with my boy but even with the extra meds I can tell he is in pain and the meds made him all dopey as well. 11 years is a good run for a labbie and he has been a very happy puppy for most of that time.
Sending virtual hugs to @RangerRickL and Rose.14 -
Sunday 17th January:
3 x Yes. Had a rest after work and travel. Had to come home on an early train. Managed a 40 minute walk in the glorious sunshine. Lots of people were carrying their coat instead of wearing it.
Stayed under calories, finished leftovers mostly.
@SModa61: I take it this is Marathon somewhere in USA, not the one in Greece? Nice!7 -

Great photos @Chinkiri and @RangerRickL
Condolences on the loss of Rose's uncle. It sounds like he lived a wonderfully long healthy life. Altho we say "just" a year of illness, I am sure that was horrific for all family.

Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes

Since we're sharing photos - here's my view on my walk/run two weeks ago. Just a different kind of beauty.

Yesterday I took my mum to have her vaccine (she’s nearly 92). It was very well organised and now I can start to worry less about her. I hope to have mine by mid-Feb, I’m in the 70+ priority group. We hope to have a relaxing of the lockdown rules by Easter, but it’s a long haul.

Exercise: yes, the same, many hours of slow walking and disinfecting public areas due to the virus, carried a few heavy things on purpose for upper body strength. Worked on walking meditations about nature while I'm in the middle of crowds.

Start weight, January 1, 2021: 132.0December 1, 2020 – 135.6

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
