    Sorry jkatch- I didn't copy this quote correctly.

    Wow! It is going to take me a bit to greet you all personally! I have responded to everyone who signed in to the UAC Introductions. I'm glad you are on the team.
    I usually try to reach out and encourage you via your own MFP site.
    My report today:
    Exercise in the morning: 33 minutes at 4 mph, and then in the late afternoon, I spent another 30+ minutes walking in the woods
    Calories: under my limit
    Tracking: Ok

    Pass ....I am so upset I have to pass so early on in this challenge. I Got my letter today saying my position has been abolished! I have worked at a psychiatric hospital as a behavior therapist for the past 25 years and now no more!

    Yesterday I couldn't eat! Crying
    Today I was mad and ate my emotions.

    Tomorrow will be better.

    What??! What a shock this must be, not to mention insulting and stressful. I can only hope that this turn of events turns into an opportunity for you that you didn't even know you wanted. We are routing for you!

    I did a 2.5 hour hike today at the Niagara Falls gorge. Lots of stairs ascending and descending. I'm sure I burnt off the Halloween candy I had last night!

    I tracked my food and stayed in my calorie goal for the day. :)

    Hi Ms. H,
    For some reason, I cannot connect to your site via the usual process. Thank you for joining the UAC Team!
    Best wishes, RangerRickL, just, Rick

    My exercise was the elliptical for 20 mins at 430 am and mowing/raking leaves for 90 mins tonight. I tracked absolutely everything and came in 300 under my calorie goal (like that ever happens...) Thought about having a mini candy bar since I have "spare" calories, but I'm still full from my spicy chicken dinner and I don't want to risk a sugar binge. I refilled my water bottle and closed the kitchen for the night instead.

    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes - 90 minutes tennis clinic, + 50 minutes walk/run
    Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
    Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes

    @jtkatch , I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your job! My training is in psych, too. I used to work in an outpatient children's clinic associated with the psychiatric hospital and they shut it down because of budget cuts as well. Hang in there!
