Happy New Year.
Early walk. Visited friend for dinner this evening. Great start to the new year.
Late check-in for me as I was tired and after New Year and visiting friends so posting this on Jan 2.
Congratulations to all who made the Winners circle in December. That is the hardest month to keep consistent with all the temptation and social functions about.
Congratulations too to all who kept going in December, even after the fourth pass day. This is really what UAC is about.
Each month I post my goals for the month. It helps keep me focused. They are often the same month to month, but it is what I aspire to maintain.
Personal goals for January:- Be in winners circle (track everything, keep under budget, 20+ mins exercise per day, no more than 3 pass days).
- Stay between 64kg and 75kg (full maintenance maintenance trying not to go too low but allow it to bounce up a bit too. Feeling fine spending the entire of last month well under 70kg, seems now like for me it should be healthy and sustainable. Still have 75kg as my upper limit as it is still just in normal BMI range for me.).
- Stay honest (even if it puts me out of the circle for the month) and continue past failings (forgive mistakes and keep moving forward).
- Encourage others where possible.

Congratulations to the winnerrs circle.
Welcome to the newcomers.
I got a good start. Didn't get carried away last night. Felt good this morning.
So ...
1) 3 hours of climbing
2) tracking check.
3) budget... if I close the kitchen right now I will have an 630 cal remaining.
For January I am going to be a little more formal and meticulous on reporting.6 -
January 1
Exercised?: Yes. 30 mins of strength training - which is good because adding strength training is a goal of mine this year. I wish I would have gotten out for a jog but with a -22 degree wind chill today here in Kansas City I could not force myself to get out there.
Calories?: Yes I regret the white wine I had - but a nine hour work day with no break does that to me.
Tracked?: Yes - even the wine.

New day, new year.
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes 30 minutes combination videos (20-low impact aerobics, 10-strength, & 10-stretch) Subsequent 20 minutes of HIIT Low Impact (H2O Plan workout day 1 of 5 day plan) Not sure I will continue with the remaining 4 days of that workout plan. While they are supposedly beginner workouts, I think they are not intended for my aging bones!

Hats off to those in the December circle.
Good day 1 of 2018 for me. Cross country skiing (6 F. I didn't want to know the wind chill, but it was blowing!). Family brunch at SiL to send off those returning to outside the US. Made a french toast casserole with egg substitute and fat free milk. No butter. It was a hit. No one realized I got the recipe from googling healthy brunch ideas. Tracked and calories were fine3 -
