1 pass day used so should make it fine to the winner's circle.
It's really hard for me to get my head around August almost being over. Seems like we were just heading into 2021 yesterday.5 -

I like ice cream, but not if I have to walk 11 miles for it! 😂

@TerriRichardson112 that's the whole point! I don't ever eat back my exercise calories - EXCEPT on my 11-mile ice cream walk! I burn off 900+ calories so that I can eat a pint of the Rebel brand Keto triple chocolate ice cream!! (600 calories!)5

@snowshoe072 and @ashleycarole86 Thank you so much for posting supportive message on the MFP Challenge Board September promo for UAC!!!
Your friend, Rick4 -
Back home from my two-day funeral driving tour of 1,100 miles.
A 3 yes day.
No Winner's Circle for me, but it's been a good month.
I've kept my weight at the lowest level in 3 decades.12 -
I made it to the winner's circle this month!
Woot Woot!
Yes, yes and yes
Walking and push-ups.

3 ✅’s Today
No Winners Circle. Way too many pass days.
I don’t qualify for Champions either as I didn’t post a couple of days.3 -
Exercise: Gym weight circuit day. Felt great all day after yesterdays 10k, so I headed out this evening for a 5k...let's say one step forward two steps back? Ugh, I just couldn't get through it without walking some parts. It wasn't pain, or pacing...just nothing in the tank and my legs were mush. I'm trying to evaluate what is happening and I think it might be the lack of calories causing the inconsistency. IDK.
Tracking: I ate at a restaurant for the first time all month. It's just too hard to find something to eat and to figure out the calories. But, I was out with my sons and they wanted to eat so I was agreeable. I ordered a flimsy salad with chicken breast and assessed the calories the best I could.
Calories: No problem

@bradkcrew - Congrats on feeling strong enough to attempt a 5k the very next day after running your first 10k! Most people have trouble just getting up to walk the next day.
As for calories, sadly it's not that simple. My advice there is just keep training at a safe level.
One thing that might be worth remembering is that your cardio and muscles don't get stronger, better, faster from exercise, but from the rest and recovery after the exercise.4 -
Another planned pass day.4

I plan to be in the Winner's Circle.

Excellent day today:
✅ Tracking
✅ Under calories
✅ Exercise - In addition to my extended puppy walk today (have finally mastered the harness system), I did two hours of gardening, the most strenuous of which was the clear out and clean up. Massive sunflowers stalks pulled and broken down into the composter (heads are in the bird feeder), clear out of the mildewed cucumber patch, weeding, and cutting back the shrubs. It looks so much better. I expect that my arms will be sore tomorrow. 😐
I have used two pass days this month and fully intend to be in the winners’ circle!
This experience has been so helpful to this newbie. Thank you for all your help, insights, and encouragement.
But the burning question is — did they have your favourite flavour this week this week @Mrs_Hoffer ? I hope so!

Yes x 3
No winner’s circle for me, but feeling good with my participation this month5 -
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? ✅ 12 minutes yoga and two walks totaling 107 minutes

Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? ✅
Pass days used 2/3
Will be hitting up that winner's circle for sure
@Mrs_Hoffer the concept of the ice cream walk is SO fun to me and this would totally motivate me too. Firstly just because I LOVE covering long distances on foot.. and the fact you said you take your spoon and eat on your way back just makes me smile.4 -
Exercise yes walking
Calories yes
Tracked yes

Exercise at least 20 minutes? Well... let's say there was movement for about 30 minutes. Not sure I'd classify it as exercise. Entirely too sloth-like. 😉
Tracking? Yes.
Within calories? No.
Definitely not in the winners' circle. A champion? I think so.

Yes x 3.long walk along a canal for exercise.
No winners circle this month. I've kept checking in though so counting that as a win.6 -
