It is fun to share information and just have fun banter.
This is a welcoming group. Thank you to everyone!

Another good day. Busy at work but very constructive so that’s ok. Managed to squeeze in a Pilates reformer class before kids Jiu Jitsu and then my new code machine arrived so I tested a few cups. It’s amazing. Boyfriend came over for a chat (we are now officially a couple after just getting to know each other with no pressure for the last month or so). Then we went to my church small group together so he has now met a few of my friends.
Food was ok choices but all logged and under budget. Not drinking enough water at the moment which leaves me very tired. Need to get back on track with that.11 -
and there are more and more posts dropping in all the time! This is wonderful. Loving all the chatter.

@Dory_42 so happy to see your relationship progress... and it is wonderful you both have flexibility in the day to make things work. What is a "code" machine. Is that code for coffee?7 -

Forgot to weigh my dinner ingredients before mixing them together.😳
Had miso broth with mushrooms and tofu, so should not be over by too many calories.🤦🏻
Since I cannot be sure though, I'm erring on the side of caution and using a pass day.🙊
@MadisonMolly2017 Congratulations and thank you for summarising those helpful NWCR statistics!
@SummerSkier The sunrise you posted yesterday was too pretty!
@lesdarts180 Congratulations on your vaccination!

Yesterday I got vaccinated - many of you commented and congratulated me, thanks but it's our vast number of medical and support staff and volunteers who need to be congratulated. It was very well organised and painless.
I did wake up (4 am!) with a headache and very slight fever but it passed by 12 so I went out on my bike in the afternoon. I'm very grateful to have received it and looking for the light at the end of the tunnel.14 -

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

Hungry in the evening for the second day running, I need to work out what I’m doing differently as I don’t normally get hungry after dinner (nibbly maybe!).6 -

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? (yoga 30, pilates 15)

Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? yes
Yikes, my Whoop is giving me a lot less calories than MFP or the fitness app I was using for today's activities, like not even a 1/3. It wasn't that far off for spin or weightlifting. Sad to have less calories to eat, lol.8 -
Got dizzy today. Don’t know if it’s the weather or lack of sleep. Dizzy most of the morning until late afternoon. Did get in 4300 steps just taking care of house and kid stuff.
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Nope.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yup.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yup. Didn’t eat or drink much. Too dizzy.16 -
@TheresaM787: I hope the dizziness subsided.
I just learned it's National Women's Physicians Day; sent some luv to my dear friends who fit that category.
Despite it being a tough news day, I stayed the course. I hopped on that elliptical and lifted weights. Tracked and will end the day with a much needed cosmo! Onwards.6 -
@ForLanston - Onwards, indeed. Good for you for staying the course...
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? ✅ 45 min walk
(SO sore from all the squats in bootcamp yesterday!!)
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? ✅.
My epiphany for the day is not to stress about eating my exercise calories... 1200 cals as my base
target is not realistic for every day. Good think UAC is helping keep me accountable on the daily
exercise thing

Way to go all the successes, everyone - reading all your posts is very inspiring!6

At least tonight is not a late work night. I’m drinking pineapple spindrift my favorite treat and soaking in the tub and going to bed!!!!6 -
I enjoy reading everyone’s posts as well. With the pandemic, I’ve not been getting out and doing as much as usual( my jogs outside are my major time spent away from home these days). So I especially enjoy reading what @Dory_42 has been up to. I think I’m living vicariously through her these days! Hopefully, not much longer until the rest of us have access to the vaccine!😀

Exercise ✔️ 30 minute walk, plus some core exercises
Calories ✔️ (Even with a treat for dessert!)
Tracking ✔️
I had one of those days when I was hungry all the time--probably because I've been coming in well under my calorie budget. I need to remember that this isn't an accomplishment so much as an obstacle I'm creating for myself farther down the line.12 -
2/3/21
Exercise - Yes - 20 min snow shoveling, 40 min walk
Calories - Yes
Track - Yes
I was looking at my weigh in histories and it looks like I lost 9lbs in my first month of UAC. I don’t expect that to happen again this month - shorter month and not coming off the holiday binging - but I’m gonna try for 6 or 7. It must be said, you all really do make it easier to stay committed to the cause. Thanks all. You’re (collectively) kind of the best. ❤️12 -
@Mrs_Hoffer Glad you're back on track. Woes be gone, I hope
@ForLangston 🥂
@snowshoe072 There seems to be quite a few of us shoveling snow these days. It IS a great workout!!

I have the same base cals you @newbie2143 and totally agree with you that 1200 cal is not realistic for all days. I always eat a portion of my exercise calories back bc I don’t like feeling weak and hungry all the time 😉3
