Ho! Ho! Ho!
All we have is the present. Forget about the past. Don't fret about the future. Everyday, focus on being thoughtful before you take a bite, taste, or lick (BTL). Whatever you eat, you should measure and track. Track it right away...not hours later. Right then! It will change your life. It will change your health. It will change your view of yourself.
This is NOT a short-term Challenge. This is a habit changing challenge that if you want it to work, you will be doing this challenge everyday.
When I don't follow the rules of this challenge...I ALWAYS gain weight. When I follow the rules of this challenge, I always lose or maintain weight.
All of us in the UAC are here to support each other. I encourage you to write about yourself and what you are doing each day.
We are here for each other. Rick5 -

Woo hoo for Dec so to celebrate i don't care if it's freezing out and it's raining I'm going to break out my heavy duty tights and a dress & celebrate the new month. Plus the truth is it's my early day. As I have to work the branch this Sat and there is no overtime I get to leave early so why not. By the way I never realized how obsessed people are with giving new money as gifts. Shoot if people give me cash for a gift I don't care what it looks like.LOL Have a great day everyone!!

Oh no....My office buddy just filled his M&M dispenser with Christmas colored M&Ms, adding his usual kind invitation to please share. (Sounds like cat food kibble being poured out, and just like the cats, everybody came running.) Quite tempting, but luckily, I am empowered with my magic UAC shield!6

Re: Goal Setting
In college I learned of a study which tracked self-improvement. Subjects were asked to toss pieces of trash into a waste basket which was placed by the subjects themselves, as they saw fit. Some made it very easy, hitting it every time. Others placed it so far away is was very difficult. The middle group set the basket just far enough so they were mostly successful, but not always. Guess what? It was the middle group that was able to improve the most.

@fitqueenbess do we work in the same office? I have a guy near me that does the same with his M&Ms.
I love the goal setting post. It is important to set, realistic, attainable but challenging goals.
Congrats to all of the November Winners Circle!3 -

12/1 Yes x 3. I got the tree up and the lights on it. This Sun is the lunch with my daughter's boyfriend's parents. I am wearing comfy clothes and walking boots just in case my hubby walks out and leaves me there. It's 5 miles to get home and I will be really ticked but I will stay 4 my daughter and walk home so I don't kill my husband. He is really not happy about going. Oh well life goes on.3

exer: yes
budget: yes
track: yes
On track. 25 degrees this morning but went cycling around the block 18 times. Pretty weird. Mr wizard gave me 510 cal credit for that. Couple hours later rode to walmart. 300 cal for that. Just ate the last of it. No more supper for me but I guess I am not hungry.
Oh, Stairmaster, my knee isn't totally happy with that experience. If I do it again it will only be for thirty minutes5 -

I am a teacher and we had a fire alarm before school started, so I got an extra bit of time to walk around the baseball field with our PE instructor, who is also an early bird.6 -

Hi Everyone!
As the group leader, I have learned that tomorrow, I need to read everyone's report that may appear after mine. If that applies to you, I will read EVERYONE's report.
My report is pretty basic:
Tracking: ok
Calories: Under my limit=ok
Exercise: Now that we are in the boring coldish weather of Chicago area, I usually just putter along with indoor exercise. 25 minutes on my treadmill while watching TV.
