More cheers going out to team members achieving three ✅✅✅ today:
@lesdarts180 Travelling days can be so hard on our bodies. I hope you are able to have a good rest tonight and that your sleep gets back on track now that you are home. Thinking of you as I know how hard this time of the year can be for everyone who has experienced such a big loss as you have. ♥️
Well done @NicoleThomas002 — Yes, we can do this and we will. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
@SummerSkier Just went and looked up your weather this weekend in Texas — that must have been a shock! Your animals must have wondered what was happening!?! Keep warm.
@Jana_2020 Welcome back - I missed you and your lovely posts. I am glad the time off was restorative for you and so happy for you that you have your daughter home with you for a while. I hope the work on her thesis goes well.
@tahm42 What a fabulous goal - 2022 miles in 2022! 🏆Does all mileage count or will you count only running (or biking)?
@victorious55 Your posts are so inspirational to me and really help me to focus and find my way forward. Especially important to me is the commitment to forgive my mistakes (and myself). Thank you. In other news, I re-discovered my challenge with setting limits when it comes to nuts over the holidays. 😳 To being otters together 🦦🤎🦦

Enjoy all your time with him and safe travels when you pass back through. It is such a mild day here in Regina and we are hoping for more of these to come. It felt SO good to be outside for a 40 minute walk. 💛

Well done @Ginharbe @Anya_000 and @donna25trinity on today (and I will dream about walking to the beach for a swim tonight Donna 🏖☀️🏊🏻♀️)
Super job @Juliexx00 on getting into that treadmill and fitting in a strength session after a long tiring day at work. 🏆 You too @twdempsey and you should be very proud of yourself 🌟
@loopydo2017 Sadly, I know your plight with the -30 temps. 🥶 I live in Regina Saskatchewan Canada and we had a day of respite today as well. So happy to walk outside!
@StayFITTer Way to go today! I just left FitBit for Apple Watch but would have loved to be fitness buddies there with you.

Went for a long hike midday - lovely
But only had 9K steps so I went out around 8:30 for more. Ended up with 11,300 steps & under my calorie goal by 200.

Pass day.
We had an impromptu dinner party that was organised a bit last minute so I didn't budget for the extra wine calories!
My January goals are mostly to complete the yoga with Adrienne 30 day challenge and to stick to calories. I'm going processed sugar free in February - I have done the last couple of years and it's a good challenge - so I want to start reducing sugar as January goes on.6 -

Wow, so many new people posting! So terrific and inspiring! And it means that I am behind in my reading. I think I can catch up tonight.
I am back on track after a bad start on the 1st. 1 pass day so far. But I am hopeful that was an aberration.
Exercise: 15 minutes MommaStrong, 30 minutes stretching, a lot of house tidying that involved going up and down stairs. I didn't get out for my daily walk - in fact I didn't leave the house at all.
Tracking: Planned the day
Calories: Followed the plan - Under!
I am excited for the new beginning!
I still need to post my intro in the intro thread but I have run out of time for this morning... I have been reading everyone's intros and am so excited for all the new people!9 -

Another pass day for me. This is classic for me. I do really well for awhile, and then 1 or 2 days of slipping up and it’s hard to get back on track. I’ll get there. Not beating myself up. It’s just part of the process. It both explains why my weight loss is so slow and why Ive managed to keep off what I’ve lost.
I do have a cold right now, but no fever, no aches and pains, The symptoms are pure cold. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a cold, which is proof that wearing a mask, hand washing and hand sanitizer works! But with Christmas shopping and concerts, I’m lucky all I have is a cold.
I want to welcome all the newbies and encourage you to keep posting even when you use up your pass days. The point here is to learn how to get where you want to be, how to be consistent even when things get tough, and instill good lifelong habits.9 -

@Marilynsretired and @Intrinsicat I am a walker too! A one hour walk is terrific. What is your step target for the day Marilyn? Do you each live in a climate where you can walk outside in winter?
@jamcnewman - you asked about my walking target. I have mobility issues which prevent me from standing / walking for any length of time without lots of pain. So for me 20 minutes of walking is broken down into smaller time frames - and right now I am getting between 500 - 600 steps in as I am also a very slow walker because of issues. Due to the winter and cold I am walking inside the house and use a pedometer to track the steps. Praying that in February I will be getting in more to 1000 steps in that same time frame but time will tell.4 -
@jamcnewman I want Ideally this to be workout miles. I will be striving not to convert steps to miles except if it is a day of sightseeing or amusement park steps. Even those days I want to travel 5.5 miles.4
