Exercised?: Yes (10 km walk in 86 mins)
Calories?: Yes
Tracked?: Yes
Long walk today. Cooler temperatures and no smoke haze. Ideal for walking.
Really needed the walk today. Was feeling drained and anhedonistic (usual activities I do to feel better not working).
Last night daughter had another emotional crisis. Fortunately, my wife and I managed to deal with it. Nothing as severe as what Rick has had to deal with with his Aunt and the scammers, but still challenging especially given the frequency of the occurrences.10 -
@JTreasures Happy Anniversary!5

This was a rough week on the road. Work stress, little sleep, poor food choices -- and the pizza and beer for dinner last night when I went out with the wife have all resulted in my feeling toxic this morning.
Today is a day for water and a long walk in the unseasonably warm temperatures. Tomorrow, I re-set. While I am out of the competition for the Golden Circle (or whatever it is called), I can still commit to having a good next week.10 -
Pass day 2 for me.9

Yes x 3. Just about managed the exercise. Really pleased with my food choices. I was at a children's party and could easily have accepted some of the treats offered to be polite which knowing me would have escalated into an "well as I've gone over my calories already so what's the harm in one more" attitude, but I said no to the first and then it was easy to continue to say no about 5 more times.7

Exercised?: Yes today I worked out for 60 minutes at my home gym. High cardio workout
Calories?: Yes
Tracked?: Yes
I know that we don't really count the calories in this group but, tommorrow is my moment of truth..weigh in day so, hopefully I did enough to lose more weight because I felt like I didn't eat that well this week even though I stayed within my daily calorie count...🙄🤔7 -

Exercise? Yes. 60 minutes of hot yoga
Calories? Yes, I will end up below
Tracked? Yes
Not feeling well today. I thought it was lack of sleep but I think I have a fever & stomach cramps. Hopefully it is something that passes fast. I am plan to close all my rings everyday this month. Getting sick puts a damper on exercise5 -
Jan 11
Exercise: 40 min on treadmill with incline
Tracked: Yes
Calories: Yes
Can someone check my math?
What %s do you get for carb = 127 g, fat = 50 g, and protein = 137 g, where total calories is 1481? Something seems to not be adding up right for me, and I can't figure out why.
The equation I'm using for carbs is Carb % = (carb g * 4) / total calories for day * 100. Similar for protein, replace 4 with 9 for fat.

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, 70 minute walk. Rainy, cold, damp, but layed up and got out there anyhow.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes4 -
3 x’s yes. Boot camp followed by kickboxing. Good on calories but lots of sodium and feeling bloated.4

Uggghhhh, I was dizzy until noon but eventually got around to my hip therapy including goblet squats, RDL's, step-ups and lots of other delightful stuff.
If it wasn't for this group I probably wouldn't have done that so thanks for this challenge!
Hope you're all having a great Saturday!

Exercise: Yes 40 minutes of hip therapy in two 20 minute sessions

Yes x 3
The Sweet taste buds were not so jealous today and they were more behaved.
Plenty of exercise and I was well in the budget. I feel energized and I was not hungry for some reason. (It must be because its the weekend! 😊)
Macros were a lot better today than yesterday
Pass days used: none so far, but tomorrow is another day.
@LesIckaBod, it will not add up quite to 100%
Approximately
Carb 34%
Fat 30%
Protein 37%
(I use the macro pie chart to get an idea and don’t usually calculate it by hand).
I hope that you are feeling better!
Have a successful day tomorrow, all!4 -
20+ minutes exercise: Yes. 107 active minutes, walking, Physio

Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes

I told myself I was going to track calories today, and it just didn't happen. However I need to develop the habit of posting in the UAC again, so this is today's post. Since I am joining so late in the month, I think it's only fair for me to be disqualified for this month.

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Walked along Clinton's Ditch for 60 minutes with DH...and then a 30 minute walk in the village with DH & Annie. Mild temps today...but both walks ended in the rain.

Saturday, 1/11/20
Tracking: Yes
Calories: under
Exercise: Yes
Water - ounces - 56
Goals/Day/Comments: 33 minutes HIIT strength, golf 9 holes walking, 10 minute walk each way to golf course.
I totally forgot I had lats. I am actually starting to see them. Just catch a glimpse if I look quickly. But they are there!e4 -
Yesx3 but pretty lazy day with bare minimum 20 min slow treadmill walk.3
-
Exercise? Yeah. 20 minutes yoga. Pretty low on steps. Quiet day.
Within my calorie goal? Just barely. Those step and exercise calories sure come in handy; really tough to have a deficit without them. That's probably a good lesson to learn during my maintenance "practice".
Tracked everything? 👍
@KCJen Just keep working at it. You will get back on track!2 -

Ack!

Today was supposed to be exercise "on" day.
But I didn't do it.
My funny little boy was due to come over so I vacuumed and cleaned things.
Not that the little guy cares much but I am kind of self conscious for his mom.
That funny little boy. My wife doesn't want me to think of him as "funny little boy."
She wants me to morph that into "fun little boy."
Alright, alright.
But today is bath day for the little guy. He ain't so little any more but he is still a bundle of joy. I let him play in the tub till his heart's content. Then I go to soap him up and get him done. He laughs the whole time. I wish I could record that.
My wife gives him the spa treatment. She puts towels in the dryer so when he gets out, he gets out to warm towels. He laughs and laughs as we dry him off.
He resists getting dressed which is kind of a chore. I get it though. He has to wear them pullup diapers 24/7. He gets regular changing but I think I get why a guy would appreciate a bath and some freedom from all that.
I ate moderately but I didn't really count calories. Not like I went hog wild or anything but I didn't track and I didn't exercise.
A good day. When I spend a day with Buddy I am mesmerized in the afterglow for a day or two. Then I start counting down to his next visit.
Tomorrow is exercise "on" day.5 -
Yes x3. Shovelled the sidewalk from the backyard to the front, down the city sidewalk and 3 neighbour's walks at midday. It kept right on snowing so I did it all again tonite. I love when I get to be productive and helpful while getting in my daily activity!4

Yes Xs 3...3
