Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes

Habits to maintain this month:
Kitchen Closed? Yes
Did you go "nuts" with nuts today? No (1day -free)
Within Sugar macro today? Yes (1 day)
Pass day 0/3 (this is for accountability to myself and my records).5 -
Personal goals for March 2022:
Every month, I like to revisit my previous goals and reset them for the new month.
1. Plan to be in winners circle (track everything as expected in this UAC) .
2. Not more than 3 pass days - If I did not meet this goal, I will post everyday. I am a champion
3. Stay honest (even if it puts me out of the circle for the month). This is very important to me. This UAC challenge is a honour system.
4. Maintain the habits of "kitchen close"
5. Create a habit of not eating more than 1 serving of nuts. "Don't go nuts". I am getting a handle on this goal. But will continue to maintain it!
6. I will like to work on not going over my micro for sugar for the day. This means I need to work on the fruits I eat since most of my sugar come from my fruits. I like fruits, but I have discovered that they could derail you.
7. Forgive my mistakes (forgive myself) and don't leave the UAC for this month even if I failed. Very important for consistency and accountability.
8. Encourage others where possible.5 -
Tuesday March 1
Congratulations to all the Winners and a big shout out to those who had ZERO pass days in February. 🌟🌟🌟
Made room in my daily calorie limit and tracking for Pancake (Shrove) Tuesday celebrations at dinner. Yum! ✅✅
Today was Day 1 of the #WalkingTowardsSpring challenge I am taking part in for the first 20 days of this month. I got my early morning Apple Fitness+ workout in and then a great outdoor walk with Beauregard before preparing dinner. ✅ We like to walk along the creek bed path, where you’d never know you were in the city. It is just one block south of our house. A very grey day today, but not as bitter a cold.

I may add or swap a habit in the next day or so... still deciding if I want to add yet or not🤔. Not sure if I feel these are both well established yet although I saw improvement with the accountability check-ins last month. Would love to hear any thoughts from long-time UAC'ers about how you know you're ready / it is time to add new habits!4 -

Time for another month of fun! Woo hoo! Happy to be spending it with all of you!
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, 57 minutes of walking, 40 minutes on the Peloton including a very intense FTP retest with improvements I'm super happy with
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes
@makattack220 Great question. I use a habit tracker in one of my other groups. For me a habit stays on the list if I'm finding the behavior is not yet automatic (meaning without the requirement to push myself to check the box i might not do it). So I had a 64 oz water goal as well - but now I basically do that automatically so I work on something else. I still track water but consuming at least that quantity feels automatic. If I wanted to specifically increase that target I'd have to put it back on.
It's also good in my opinion not to overwhelm yourself and to ensure your base habits are truly solid before piling on more. I think it's easy to feel overwhelmed. Focus on less but do it well, and eventually those things become automatic!5 -

Congratulations to the winners! You all are inspiring
Pass days so far: 0
Exercise: 25 minutes walk, 25 minutes stretching
Tracking: Planned the day with a little wiggle room, had a few extra nibbles but tracked them
Calories: Under!
First time I've managed it a while. The amazing thing was that I was not ridiculously hungry, for the first time in a while. I don't know why. I'm going to post about it in What's on Your Mind.
There are 3 kinds of intentional movement that I try to do each day:
1. MommaStrong - to maintain/build functional strength, especially core strength. Those are mostly 15 minute videos.
2. Walking - I try to go for at least a half hour walk outside each day. I work mostly from home and getting out of the house every day and seeing the sun is KEY to my sanity.
3. Stretching - I haven't tended to list that when I list out my exercise because I don't think it "counts" because there's not much of a calorie burn. But stretching is maybe the most important thing I do for my wellbeing, because I am in a bunch of pain if I don't do it. I have some stretches that are prescribed to me by a PT for a tailbone issue, for which I am discharged but still experience pain if I don't do the stretches regularly. And I get tension headaches if I don't stretch my upper body. And I have been having trouble prioritizing it. So I am going to list when I do it in March. Though I think a day with only stretching as exercise I would still count as a pass day.

thank you @ashleycarole86 😁👍 This helps tremendously and makes my answer about swapping/adding easy for me: I need more time for these to feel automatic. And, I am trying to do this in a way specifically not to overwhelm myself so that these are permanent changes. Great insight - thank you, thank you!4
