Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? yes - had an 8 mile run today. Longest in a week or so. Weather was great!
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? yes - I don't seem to have hunger the day of a long run. Just the next day! LOL
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? yes - prelogging for the win. And my little secret is that I usually leave some cals on the table in case I need a little extra late at night. Enough for a pc of laughing cow is perfect!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

@snowshoe072 Yes cute doggie pic as your profile. I have also had a weird creepy friend request awhile back. I was talking to the person because they were in our group, but then they started asking more personal questions, not questions about health stuff. I start noticing they were not in our group here anymore and decided to visit their profile page. When I did they had a slew of women on there and NO men at all. I believe they maybe using this as a dating sight? So anyway I stopped answering back and deleted them. A week or so later they changed the profile name and pic, but can clearly see its the same person! Now I have another friend request from another person who has never been in this group! Are you experiencing that? I was gonna post on here and ask if this happened to anyone else, but I never did, so thanks for sharing that.snowshoe072 wrote: »Didn’t want to but did 5.0 miles of spin in 23 minutes seemed like a struggle but got it done think I will pass on dinner to late so that puts me below my daily count

@RangerRickL Thus far, I've been in the main forums supporting the others' UAC comments with my emoji responses.
---|---|---|---
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? YES | Pre-work Interval Workout via Zoom (27), Sandbag Workout #7 from Week 5 (47) TOTAL: 74 min
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? YES | Base + 396
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? YES |
---|---|---|---
I shaved 14 minutes off the sandbag workout time since Monday's first attempt. Next round is on Friday and I'm aiming for <45 min. Perhaps doing it during my lunch break helped motivate a faster finish.
Zoom workouts have been cancelled the rest of the week because of Americans and their Thanksgiving events. That means tomorrow is now either a rest day or time to catch up on the Isometric Challenge.
May you safely enjoy time with your family and friends, my American UACers.4 -
Yesterday... Exercise: 1.5 hours of walking and horse related activity. Calories: well under limit; Tracking: good
Today...Exercise: 15 minutes active stretching, 35 minutes hike; 40 minutes horse related activity.
Calories: under by enough, but not much
Tracking: okay3 -
@MaltedTea Thank you for sending out the UAC message into new groups. I really appreciate you!3

I’m good with pre logging but just don’t find time to go back and change it to what really happened on the day. Still aiming to get back on track with that. Exercise was a busy work day including swimming chlorine out to my rock for shock treating the pool. Not as fun as swimming with the seals but for months I couldn’t pull myself up into the rock so every time I get there is still a victory. And of course Jiu Jitsu Coach for kids and attend adult class. We worked on a take down which I am always cautious about and the Wednesday class is mostly white belts so I try and avoid most of them. Worked with the purple belt who was taking class so actually got a really good session in.

It is just the time of year for creepy people to try and friend you. Unless they have common friends or write an intro message I usually do not accept. Esp if it's some young guy. LOL. The best thing to do is just not accept until you take a look at their profile.
