Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes, easily.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yep
I know your actual age, and this PROVES that AGE is NOT a factor for YOU! I want to grow up to be just like YOU! AWESOME job on exercise, my friend, as usual!5 -
My very first day!! 👏😊🎉
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? ✅ (Strength Training for 105min & Spinning for 72 min)
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? ✅ Yes, did a nice 40 hour fast to start the month right
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? ✅ 180 oz. water, herbal tea & plain decaf
Way to go! I know that you are new to the group, as I have now entered my 4th month in the UAC! I have not had a chance yet to post on the welcome page or read who has posted in there yet, but tomorrow is another day! I will get to it and all posts I can not read until at a later date and time. I do READ them ALL, though! My name is Gina; as you can see, I do NOT use a screen name, not sure why I don't? Welcome to the group!4 -
@Beautyofdreams I just checked youtube and here is a start on chair exercises https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=chair+exercise6

Well here we are, aren't we? I'm so happy to be in such great company! 🤗
---|---|---|---
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? YES | Bret Contreras' Strong Curves "At Home Workout" (30), Monday Magic 💃🏾 (34) TOTAL: 64 min
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? YES | Base + 328
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? YES
---|---|---|---
Personal Bonus: Did I meet my protein macro for the day (40%)? NO | 28%
Pass Days Used: --
Finally, as I've done on the first of every month thus far, I'll list my accomplishments. With the help of UAC participation over the past month, I've been able to:
* Lose 0.5 % body fat
* Trend comfortably under 25% body fat percentage
* Increase the number of days reaching at least 30% protein (from 16 days in DEC to 19 days in JAN)
* Skip so much in JAN that the rope gave up and broke before I did
And, since joining UAC in October 2020, I've lost a total of 3.1% body fat and gained 1.2% in lean body mass. I'm trying to figure out how to improve this ratio so as to pack on more lean muscle faster.
Other goals for February:
* keep enjoying @Dory_42's lurv updates 🥰
* somehow convince @calvin20874 to finally give up the secret of 50-minute stretching 🧐
YOUR daily updates, just like @ Dory_42, crack me up, make me giggle, what I am saying!
What made me crack up?
1) Skipping so much rope in January that the rope broke before YOU did!
2) Following the budding romance of @ Dory_42, just like I am!
3) Trying to figure out how to convince @ calvin20874 to FINALLY give up his SECRET to his 50 min stretching!
Way to go on achieving YOUR GOALS, my friend! Here is off to another month of CRUSHING it!3 -

Congrats to all the people on the Winner's Circle list. Now onward to February.
@RangerRickL Thank you so much for all your support and for hosting this group and keeping it interesting, great job. I appreciate the correction, things happen.
Here is a pic of the snow and slush I walked through today
It looks the same here in Illinois! 1 -

It's February and today I was up at 5 a.m. and after active stretching, out into the desert hiking. Began the hike under the stars and the moon was bright enough for me to cast a shadow. My downhill return was lit by predawn light over the eastern mountains. It was a beautiful hike and it was only one hour for that change from night to day.
Calories: under my limit
Tracking: good12 -
Hi all!

And Rick, thanks for including me on the Champions list, I don't feel much like a January champion, but I am still at it. Targeting the WC this month!3

@ RangerRickL Sorry that the UAC page today has MY NAME all over it!
I FEEL like Oprah Winfrey today! She used to do a special show called Oprah's favorite things! It was usually done around the holidays! I ALWAYS wanted to book a ticket to that show, but YOU, as the guest or person booking the ticket, never knew when that show would be! If you purchased the ticket, it was because YOU thought it would be on a certain topic, then YOU would find out the truth! People would get so EXCITED to know it was the FAVORITE GIVEAWAY SHOW! I would be excited too! She gave away wonderful gifts, such as cars, vacations, and pricey gifts! I loved when she would say, " you get a car, and you get a car, and you get a car, etc.." This is how I FEEL today in the group, just like Oprah! I went through ALL the posts for this special first day of the month. I ALWAYS give each person a check on either inspiring, like a hug, or insightful! Today I felt like Oprah Winfrey as I marked my checkmarks and repeated.
" You get an INSPIRING, and you get an INSPIRING, and you get an INSPIRING, and so on!"
Date:2/1
