just thought I would mention that we already have some new members on the December UAC "What's On Your Mind" and "Introduction" pages.
You might want to go say "Hello" ....3 -
Tonight, I will post the December UAC promo on the MFP Challenge Board. It's great to have some people already signing up.
Thanks, @BMcC95 -

⭐️ EXERCISE: Yes.
⭐️ CALORIES: Yes.
⭐️ TRACK: Yes.
PASS: 1/3
I walked 30 minutes at work today throughout the building, and then another 15 mins tonight on the treadmill when I got home.7 -
With 1 pass left (used 1 on 9th and the other on the 19th), I have to be super careful ;-).
Today was not so good in terms of eating, but I evened out by moving around and working out (funny, but I have exactly 114 cal left, just like yesterday!). I might go in loss mode in December, cause this "maintainance" thing got me moving in the wrong direction 😲 (admitedly, by just 1 kg, but I'd love to lose back about 3kg 🤷♀️).6 -

@RangerRickL Thanks for the birthday shout out to me today!
@Intrinsicat Sorry I meant to comment on your very cool shot of you swimming in pool with your mermaid outfit on yesterday. It looks like so much fun!
@TeresaSavage Thank you for the bday wishes
@SummerSkier Thank you for the bday wishes. I am surprised from my LONG walk on treadmill yesterday that I am not sore today, I thought I would be today as well, but guess because I have been doing treadmill every day for 2 months I am getting stronger doing it. I love your barn photos and this one is super cute!

I completed my diary today and was 60 calories over. So I thought to myself I can do better and went promptly downstairs to burn 60 calories on the treadmill. Again, I love this challenge for the personal motivation. Now I can say yes to logging, staying within calorie goal and exercising!8

Favorite summer activity is likely why I am here - probably "eating". I am not a summer person. Fall is my favorite. I am not a bright sun, heat, humidity, or water person. So of course it made a lot of sense that hubby and I bought a place in the Florida Keys last year. I think I'm going to need to find a better favorite summer "activity". :P

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? 2 mile treadmill run + 37 minutes of strength this morning, and 55 minute barre class this evening
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes and under
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yep!5 -
@ginadomaszewicz - Happy belated birthday!! 🥳
---|---|---|---
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? YES | Sandbag Workout #7 from Week 5 (61) TOTAL: 61 min
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? YES | Base + 283
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? YES |
---|---|---|---
This week, for simplicity, I'll be doing the same sandbag workout 3x (MON/WED/FRI) and trying to improve my time each time.
As for nutrition, adding my introduction to the December UAC reminded me that I've not been as accountable with my nutrition goals (like hitting 40% protein at least once a week). Until I get better at knowing my protein needs intuitively, this will require a bunch of pre-logging - which rubs me the wrong way - but I did it today.

I can relate! UAC has made me very conscious. No more excuses . No more lazy days.6 -
