^ argh sorry about the missing bracket and ending up with the full spoiler posted
Its actually ok you did this as sometimes I forget what someone wrote awhile back. You and I started same month, think we want to loose about same amount of weight, as well as are loosing about the same average each month. I actually found it interesting to read your past few months again. I got to see what you are doing versus what I am doing, but yet we are achieving the same weight loss monthly. This just goes to show you that the program works and its also tailored to the individual and you decide how to accomplish your goals, yet we both end up arriving at the same end result! Thanks for the accident on post, that I actually don't think turned out to be an accident! You probably really helped some of us in here without realizing that you did!1 -

If you were to open my exercise diary, you'd see that I logged 1 minute of Jumping for Joy! That's because I weighed in for the first time since beginning this group and I've lost 4 lbs.! I think that I've found my mojo again after a long absence.
I can thank this group for my recent success. All I needed was to be held accountable for what I eat and how much I move. (I thought that it would take a stick of dynamite to get me moving again.) Since I don't like lying to anyone other than myself, I've stuck to logging everyting that goes in my pie hole, so to speak.
Another reason for my success is the fact that anyone, regardless of age or physical abilities, can join. Since I "ain't a Spring chicken" and can't walk very well YET, that's a big plus for me.
So thank you @RangerRickL for creating this group.
So happy for you and exact way I felt about joining this group and what keeps me coming back each month! I too can't believe how well I am doing on my weight loss in this group versus when I try myself! We are happy that you chose to take the ride along with all of us members of the UAC!0 -

Dec 14
Yes x 3, mindful, in maintenance range
Still not entirely well - Gastro. Will contact doc tomorrow- hoping it will all just go away, but realized it’s been 1 pretty rough week & a milder, but not normal week before that ... glad I track my food & how I was feeling (as part of a Dec Eating Mindfully habit I created for myself)
Perhaps subconsciously I knew something was up
Like @Bill70sStrong, I’m strong - will consult the experts.3 -
Oh & new outdoor Xmas tree lights arrive tomorrow!!! (Our old ones died from joyous year round use!!)3

@MadisonMolly2017 Haha, thank you MadisonMolly2017! I am laughing because I was coming back to the Dec 14 thread because I needed up update my status to a "pass" for yesterday. Last night after reporting in, I got into the dregs of leftover Halloween candy. I have not binged on anything in two months. Blaming mental impact of painful back (was stupid sunday), cold temps, and having to do travel quarantine and can't go anywhere. But first step in these things is to own up and this group is great support for that! Today, Dec 15, is a new day.
Anyhow, thanks again for the kind words. Hope you are feeling better this morning. It's crazy that now any time we get a "little something" we have to worry that maybe it is something worse. Feel better!2 -
Exercise: Yes. 11 miles hill run, really.....
Calories: Yes. On long run days or even long hike days it's weird but my appetite is very manageable, it's the day after when I get voraciously hungry.
Tracked: Yes
On track to make it for Dec, assuming my last Pass Day will be for Christmas Eve.3 -
day 15
Exercise - yes
pass daySpoilerOnly did 500 cal or so of exercise.
That was enough to put me over the top for my 4 year goal of a million feet of climb.
Closed the kitchen ok at 6p.
But had 400 cal of beer after closing the kitchen.
Ack!3 -
@oldDogBiking
Having a pass day for a beer -- after making a 4 year goal of a million feet of climb -- is what pass days are for. Awesome accomplishment!5 -
Wow! You guys are doing awesome!! You're all very inspiring. Unfortunately, all the inspiration does not guarantee my determination and success!! It's all up to me. I won't be in the Winner's Circle ... but I'm still sticking around. Keep up the great work and have a beautiful day 5

Went to an AYCE sushi place so I figured I was doomed but a lot of walking and an absolutely brutal HIIT workout got me the calories to offset it. It was certainly a less than normal volume of sushi which also helped.
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Oh yeah, plenty.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Not by a lot but I did it.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yep I did

I slept again just about enough, but felt tired, so took a nap, too 🙈😁. I was going to have a rest day and do just a light workout, but the kids wanted to work out with me, so there you go! 🤷♀️😁. 30 min of 🚴♂️ in the morning and Heather's workout 🏋️♀️ in the evening. Almost 200 cal left, I'm okay with that. 😃3
