I spent about 3 hours hiking with my sisters and will do stronglifts later so lots of exercise
But I didn't count calories - we had a big picnic and I did lots of grazing. My phone wasn't connecting to the Internet so I wasn't able to use it whilst eating and it was lots of little bits and I can't remember how many bits of different things I had etc so I just put it down as a big buffet and estimated it high on my diary. But no I didn't track properly.
When I am out and about or in situations where it's more fun to enjoy the company I take a picture of the before and after plate of my meals. I put my hand in the picture so I can guage the portions I've eaten.
That's a great idea!3 -

Catch-up entry - short and to the point ....
Days goals met: 5
Pass days used: 2
Didn't log for two days (didn't even sign on the MPF yesterday for the first time in over 3 months!) The exercise calories via the exercise bike were plenty high enough to keep in the calorie plan zone (Sunday for sure / Saturday ... probably ?)
The home breadmaker raisin bread loaf turned out perfectly ... albeit molecularity unstable ... evaporated quickly .... somehow bypassing the digital scale on the way out of this dimension ...3 -
@fatbambi2017 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angles_Way Great walk! My kids went to school around there and my daughter-in-law's grandmother lives in Thetford. I love the area!
Happy Belated Birthday @WMEJA! Glad you had a good day!1 -
Exercised: Yep! 50 minutes of cardio and abs. Then 100+ minutes of walking the pup.
Under calories: Yep!
Tracked: Yep!I hung out with some friends for the first time in-person since February/March and it was so wonderful to see them in-person. I planned to only have one beer while I hung out with them, so I only brought one with me, and a quick fruit salad to snack on instead of the salty chips and dip they had available.
All in all, it was a great time seeing people again and being mindful of enjoying food and drink in moderation.3 -
Yes, yes, yes
Put in an extra long walk of ten miles. Felt good to be able to do that since I am mostly confined to the home.4 -
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, walked for 20 minutes (today I will run)
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes
One week since I started the challenge and I am down 3.5 lbs! Of course most of that was binge weight, that's why it's such a large amount. It feels good to be back in control of my eating, thank you UAC!
