Exercise: YES! 30 min HIIT, 40 min cardiodance
Tracked: YES!
Stayed under calorie goal: yes, but just barely... thanks to this challenge for giving me some restraint. I’m a stress eater and watching what’s going on at the US Capitol is bad for democracy and for my waistline

@summerskier In answer to your question about daily posting. My recollection is that the guideline is to check-in no less frequently than every third day. And I have frequently observed this in my alerts. I will see person "X" posting three posts in a row. One on each of the past two days and a third post for the current day. Hope I got that right and I hope that takes some pressure off your friend.1

My calorie rule for January UACDefining, for myself more than anything, what is the definition of my daily calorie goal. For Oct and Nov, I used 1430 and not eating back exercise. December, I raised that to 1480 with no additional calories for exercise. For January, I am going to try a blended rule; either Food calories under 1480, or Net calories (ie Food minus exercise) under 1200. So, if my exercise burns less than 280 on a given day, there is no added calories. BUT, if I exercise more, I have the option additional food OR if I overeat, I have the option of exercising more to not use a pass day. This flexibility was not something I allowed in my previous rounds. Once I exceeded my goal calories, regardless of my exercise burn. Also, I am defining that I am using the MFP estimate for the caloric burn from exercise. I know I could get different numbers elsewhere, but I am going to use only the one source – good or bad.Date: 1/1

@rangerrickL Thanks for the correction. I'm trying to figure out where I got that in my head, because I have been running (apparently erroneously) with that idea these past 3 + months. The only thing I could find was this line from rule #5: "Account for every day of the month. If you can get to a computer only once every three days, your post needs to look something like this:" And maybe that is where I extracted the every three day idea. Anyhow, I should have just not replied, but no one else had. Tried to help, but didn't.3

Pass Day used on 6Jan
I got up too late (with very little sleep) so wasn't able to get to the treadmill first thing like I normally do and by the time I got home I completely forgot about it. By the time I remembered it was too late (treadmill is too noisy to use when my partner is sleeping).3 -
