Exersized-?yes
Caleries?-yes
Logged?-yes
I was a bit sluggish today but I did restorative Yin Yoga for 40 minutes & some cleaning. My goal for this month is to close all my rings for the entire month. I have planned exercise & calorie goals until our next trip. I have to recover the damage from our last trip.

January 1st
Exercised for 20 mins? Yep! Walked each of my 3 dogs individually around the neighborhood (0.8 mile walk each, 2.4 mile walk total) And 15 mins of various ab and arm exercises including fire hydrants, planks, starfish crunches, and bicep curls with a 20 lb weight (I’m trying to increase that number but dang are my arms weak lmao)
Stayed under calorie goal? Oh yea! I only ate around 1200 of my allowed 1700! That’s probably due to me eating a bit too much on December 31st; but new year, new eating habits!
Tracked everything? Yep! I’ve been using this app for about 2 weeks nonstop now and I think that calorie tracking is a habit at this point!8 -
Exercise - yes!
Under calories - yes!
Tracked everything - yes!
Off to a great start 😁6 -
@suzyqmelbourne, wow that really looks awful. I'm so sorry you're going through this. I live in So Cal so I understand what you're going through but that looks absolutely awful. Hang in there and hope the fires will be under control soon.
Hubby took me out to lunch today since I've barely left the house for the last 10 days.....LOL It was nice and I picked out what to eat before we left based on calories and fat. Funny thing was, I didn't really like the pizza very much and the salad was just boring so I didn't eat much of either one. I did have about 6 or 7 of my husband's french fries though. Lunch came in under 400 calories and I had leftover soup for dinner so I ended up over 300 calories under today.

Exercised: Yes, walked Penny Lane for 32 minutes and then did hip therapy for 20. The only signs I'm really having of vertigo now are very early in the morning when I shift position in bed or get up to use the bathroom. It's not completely gone but much better so I should be able to up my exercise now
Calories: Yes, as stated above, under more than 300 for the day
Tracked: Yes, even the french fries I swiped off of hubby's plate
Happy New year everyone!8 -

Yes. 35 minute walk

Yes
Happy New Year everybody. Here’s to getting into a groove and keeping it going into the month!7 -
Super Impressed with the December winner’s circle.
Starting January with a planned pass day as we traveled home from our getaway. So much good food!!!!
Really enjoyed being able to be a little relaxed about eating after over two years of being pretty rigid. Now I’m ready to get back to normal. Time to get the last bit done.
I love this time of year with so many people committing to their health. It gives me an extra push to work hard.

Spin bike 32 minutes logged my food stayed under. Going to try and do a dry January as if I drink a lot but thought it might be a fun challenge.6

Exercise: yes, six miles of walking

January 1 Day 1
Exercised?: Yes, 30 minutes on the elliptical!
Calories?: Yes, 78 under
Tracked?: Yes7 -
Exercise? Yes! 55 minute chilly walk. 8k steps for day. And core exercises.
Within my calorie goal? Aye! I started the new year by switching to maintenance on MFP (1420 calories before exercise). Because I want to get to the bottom of my maintenance range (about 3.5 pounds away), my plan is to eat at least 1350 calories, but leave a 100 - 300 calorie deficit with exercise. A slower weight loss should help my transition to maintenance.
Tracked everything? Of course!
Happy New Year everyone! Welcome to all the new folks!8 -

Exercised 80 minute walk covered 3.38 miles
Calories yes
Logged yes8 -
I was within my calorie budget, ‘tracked everything including a leftover cookie and I earned lots of activity calories. Pretty boring.
Yes x3
Glad to have a fresh new set of passes.
Have a successful day tomorrow, all!7 -
I’m excited to start the year off right. Looking forward to making these healthy choices a habit and a way of life.6

Happy New Year to everyone! Glad to join the challenge. Thanks for opening it up.
Exercised ? Yes - 20 minutes on treadmill
Logged? Yes
Did I go over? Yes...so I assume that is a pass for me.
Because I knew my food was going to be off today and I am excited to start this challenge, I purposely did an hour weight routine after work last night before going out for New Year's Eve.
I faced timed my daughter on the treadmill tonight so atleast I got some brownie points in today.
Here's to a great month of meeting the daily goals!!!!

Exercise: Tons! 4.5 miles this morning (4.25 run) then 1.5 mile walk this afternoon, then 30 min strength/ light cardio this evening
Calories: Broke even
Logged everything
I lost about 5 lbs in December and am hoping to lose at least that in January.9 -
exercise - yes
budget -yes
track -yes
- No alcohol for the big party. Actually no big party. So no hangover this morning.
Went to the "track" for some hill repeats. Got the first couple of repeats in before the sun came over the mountain. Cold. 19 degrees I think. I was more or less comfortable though.
Interesting to see who was out early starting their New Year with an early morning jaunt.
- Pretty well under budget. Only ate like 200 of my exercise calories. Didn't have my usual soothing beverage that I regularly indulge in after an arduous exercise. That would be a good habit to break.
- Happy New Year and congratulations to all of the Circle Winners.7 -

- 60 minutes Les Mills Combat...
- Outdoor Walk 3 Miles despite ice and snow and falling on first try on the driveway, but gorgeous day - mid 30's
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day?
- Unbelievably Yes! Still eating leftovers from party last night, will eat better tomorrow
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank?

Good luck everyone! And Happy New Year.
I was in this group awhile ago, and it helped me so much. Then I changed jobs, got stressed, let everything go, got into bad habits, steadily gaining weight every month. Arrrgh!
@RangerRickL thank you for being here, and being such a positive influence. Nice to see @craigo still here, and a few familiar others. I'm grateful to be back and to take another shot at healthy changes.
Yes x3 for me. Hiking w dog, under calories.8 -
Happy New Year!
@suzyqmelbourne please stay safe! What is happening in Australia is truly heartbreaking.
I felt hung over today. Since I’m an early riser, trying to stay up until midnight and one and a half glasses of champagne was all it took. That said, it’s January first and I didn’t want to quit on day 1 of the New Year. Got a scheduled walk/run in for my 10k training, ate pretty well and was below my 1500 kcal limit after a “compensatory” stair climb in my highrise (all 30 floors). Tracked everything including water, since I’m trying to increase both vegetable and water consumption. This year is off to an ok start.6 -
