Hello all! Exciting to be starting a new month. Shout out to @RangerRickL for running this group again. Much appreciated.
It’s Canada Day here and I had an active happy day. Played with my older grandson in the pool in the morning, went to a Canada Day festival carrying the younger one, then went for a good walk with my husband after the grandkids went home. Indulged in a quintessentially Canadian Tim Horton’s muffin and still stayed under goal.

Exercised?: Yes! I did a 20 min ab workout from the nike training app.
Im trying to do a real "workout" workout for at least 20 minutes each day of the month, on top of my already strenuous work, proud that I got this in! (flood mitigation; lots of hiking and walking long distances!)
Calories?: no no no
Like 2000 over, oops. I need to start consistantly eating my calories! Yesterday I only ate 1400 on a 2200 goal, I think thats why I overate so much today, plus I was cooking for my team! I live and work with 11 other people at the moment,
but will be done around July 19th. 👍(Americorps NCCC! Message me of you want to know more!)
Tracked?: Yes, if i can do anything consistently it is this.

Hi Rick - yes, for two days a week you limit the amount of calories to 500 - 600 a day and on the other days you can eat to your tdee. I’ve seen a lot of successful stories about this so thought I would give this a go along with your challenge to keep me on track. Day one has worked, but if I find the low calorie option too hard I will stick to the basic counting calories2 -
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, 40 minutes on the treadmill.

@Rigibann I like to learn new things. Keep us informed about your experiment. I worry that you will feel depleted by the lack of sufficient caloric energy. Best wishes, Rick1
