Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, a 3 hour and 47 minute walk. Nice thing about being retired, plenty of free time! Walked the roads for a change today and my knees are letting me know they don't like the harder surface! They better get used to it! lol

3️⃣ Pass Days leftdonna25trinity wrote: »Im finding with my passes once i know ive went over my calorie limit i hve the ah well im going to make it worth it mentality and then overeat. Interested to hear how others manage this??? Perhaps i may be better off to set a goal to use none of my passes??
What I do is to prelog my food for the day, then make sure I have plenty of exercise calories to cover last minute indulgences.
The idea of UAC is that you are trying to create better habits, and be accountable for your actions.
It’s all a matter of choice for me.
I ask myself these questions:
1. What real benefit do I gain if I throw the whole day away by choosing to continuing to overeat on that day?
2. Who suffers?

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, I went to the gym and worked out for 45 minutes and I'm a little sore now but it's all good. I'll feel it tomorrow morning...
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes, I'm under a lot today and that's not good. Exercising adds to my daily calories allowed and for me that's not a plus.

@Dory_42 and @SModa61
I am the moderator of the UAC group.
My personal goal for me and for those who participate is to help replace bad habits with good habits.
That is the only real goal of the UAC.
Since I am not doing an Excel spreadsheet on anyone nor anything, each UAC team member is encouraged to follow the guidelines of the Challenge.
@Dory_42 is right, no one has ever been kicked out by me.
I'm delighted that so many people have been benefited from following what are intentionally simple and reasonable guidelines.

Yes, x's 3 - zumba and possibly taking sweet pup for a late walk...but for now - just zumba. Adding free weights in. I am adding in some planks.
I am avoiding all media except for weather reports and such... If you are prayerful - scroll down for my prayer request for a friend:
would you pray for Mireya? Young woman hospitalized with serious pneumonia after - you know what...covid. Not doing well - in a medically induced coma.8 -
@Bovaryoo I like how you mentioned Pelofondo like it's nothing! I had to look it up but do let us know how it goes for you!!
@DouMc Kudos on all your progress so far this year. As for the bras, we can barter because all my new ones are too big since, well, errm, I guess I lose body fat from my chest first?! On certain days, I'm pretty sure I've only lost from my chest 😒

Many mozzarella sticks disappeared from my freezer today (if you use passive language, it doesn't seem so bad...right?!). Moved up Saturday's rest day to today which means it's "all work, no play" until next Tuesday. No regrets.2
