Slightly disappointed to start April with a pass day BUT....it was great!! I was careful with food all day. Did my usual yoga and walking in the morning. Worked all day then..my FIRST social event since October 2020! I wore sequins, drank champagne, chatted to my friends (more than one!!) in a gazebo, ate delicious lasagne, what a wonderful night. I definitely went over calories abut but didn’t track properly. Just really enjoyed a taste of freedom and finally seeing some light at the end of this lockdown tunnel. And the upside is that I walked home after midnight so I already have 3,400 steps and 16 minutes of exercise on my watch for April 2nd! Let’s just hope no champagne hangover!8

Yes x 3 for me today. My goals for April are to avoid eating back my exercise calories and continue to lose at least .5 of a pound each week. That rate of progress is just excruciatingly slow, but I know it's the only way to keep the weight off in the long run.
The UAC group has helped me stick with this journey longer than I have for any stretch in the last 10 years, and I'm so grateful!9 -

Hi guys... Happy April
calories: yes
exercise: yes
track: yes
pass: no
how do you feel? I did something today that I haven't been able to do in so long if ever. I went out with a friend to go to an Acoustic Evening, but it got rained out. But that's not what I wanted to talk about. I had a big breakfast this morning, in that I had 2 slices of french toast with my usual eggs, tea and bacon. I thought for sure that I would start April with a pass because of this as I knew I was going out this evening. Anyhow, back to the rained out event. While waiting to see if the rain would pass I ordered appetizers, Calamari, I am a ___ for calamari, but I had it with water because I didn't want sodas, or the fruity drinks they had. that's not me, me two months ago would have washed that down with a Coke and a few of Coke's friends. Also I looked at the menu and nothing was appealing to me, so I was satisfied with the Calamari and nothing else. This is also not me. In the past I would have just ordered something because I was already dressed up and out. Wow. I don't know how long this will last, but I intend to ride this train to the100s land or as close as I can get.10 -

1st April
It's warm and sunny here in Southern France. People are walking around in T-shirts. This helps to lighten my mood! So, exercise, 35 minutes walking in the sunshine, even if it was mostly to the Post Office and back. Bought myself some red tulips! @MadisonMolly2017
Calories: Yes, stayed under. Asparagus is back in season, very tasty, filling, with a couple of hard boiled eggs, low in calories! 20 spears of asparagus, 2 hard boiled eggs, 2 tsp mayonnaise, 267 calories.
I am a firm believer that, even if we have to limit calories in our daily diet, we should still eat nice food!
Tracking: Yes, logged it all!7 -

Consistency is key!
50/87 “completers” in March 57.4% might actually been the highest I’ve seen in over 3 years!!!! Wow!
Great advice above!
For those who hang in here, great achievements are possible!
Warmly,
Maddie
I have to agree. This is one of the highest since I joined few years ago.4 -
Yes, yes, and yes!! One day in a row now!
Its been a week since surgery and I felt good enough to do some walking, 45 minutes at a slow pace, but exercise none the less. Feels good to be back in the 3 x yes category!8 -

Yes x3
90 min walk plus exercises
When I came back to mfp and the UAC in late Feb I set an ambitious target of -1 lb per week in mfp. But that calorie amount is just too low for me to be consistently successful. So I changed it to -0.5 per week starting today. This way I'm much more likely to have days that are passing or close to passing when pre-logging, so I'm more likely to adjust choices to hit the target rather than just giving in since I'm well over.5 -
Happy to be here on April Fools Day
though I stopped tracking mid March, I stuck to relatively clean eating and exercise. The weather has been warm, so for the past week I've been doing green smoothies for breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack. It's helping me stay full but low calorie so I can have a normal dinner. Short lady solution to keeping a nice calorie deficit.
Yes x 3 for Thursday. on target with calories, logged, did a half hour dog walk and 75 min tennis.5 -
@Chinkiri And a wonderful group of 50 valiantly crossed the March finish line! I am proud of everyone!

@MaltedTea
Google just showed me what a boat pose is. Another first to add to my mental picture vocabulary.
You are always a delight and comfort zone expander.

@lacatgirl
Now that you read the rules, restart from zero tomorrow.
I did not feel well after both of my vaccine jabs but it is still something that I celebrate.2 -
@alligatorob Great to see that you are recovering and went for real walk. Too often we take such things for granted.
Best wishes, Rick1
