Had a great day today. Feel fantastic after evening 20 min Tabata ride.
Exercise: Yoga 30, Core 10, Leg/Glutes 10+20, 20 Tabata + stretch
Tracked: ✅
Calories: ✅
Thought I'd reflect on last weeks goals: fish 3x ✅, Fruit daily (low goal I know)✅, Daily Dozen 20/24❌ . This week I'm focusing on improving my protein %. Last week I averaged 54%. Sunday I hit 87% and today 67% (113 grams though which is really good for me). Trying to hit 70-75% for the week. Is anyone else ravenous after strength training? It leaves me so hungry while spinning tends to make me not hungry 🧐 .
@Bovaryoo yep I feel u I'm def starving on days I do weights too. Ur doing fab with ur protein btw!xo3 -

You do so well with being but free! I tots know wat u mean, nuts are 1of those foods that I can't keep in the house as once I start I cant stop. I got the shock of my life wen I discovered how much calories are in a small amount. He he! Wen I was a teen a worked in an office in which I was the youngest so I got spoiled rotten with huge lunches made for me, endless supply of lollies in the lolly jar and bags & bags of nuts for morning & afternoon tea. Lol! Then i used to sit there and wonder why I was chubby. Ha ha! Xo4 -
@mrs_hoffer ur walks are soo long! Great job! Xo
@readyornot1234 sounds like it was just a 1 off! I'm sure it will be business as usual for u tomz. Xo3 -

Sounds more than just simple to me Maddie. U hve sum great habits cemented, self awareness and strategies for success in place! Xo4 -
Did I exercise at least 20 minutes? Just a little over.
Did I track everything? Yes.
Did I stay within calorie goals? Barely, but I did.
So, I now have 2, that's two, NON-pass days this month.
Spent an hour wandering up and down the aisle of the barn at Aislinn's equine therapy this morning while she did her thing. I got to love on Black Jack, Millie, Elsie, Odin, Earl, Smokey, Snap, Peanut, Sugar, Amber, Nutmeg, and a couple of others whose names I don't remember right now. Casper, on the other hand, couldn't be bothered to even look at me. And Annie had a note outside her stall requesting that she not be petted or given treats. Sadly, I don't have another Monday off until MLK Day in January and, if Ais keeps to the same schedule, that falls between her appointments. So, unless I messed up my counting, I won't get back out to the barn until Presidents' Day in February. Alas. Although a friend who recently realized her dream of having a horse has invited me out to the stable where she boards Sarge so I can meet him and meet the horses there as well. We'll have to work on arranging that meeting due to conflicting work schedules. Nevertheless, this morning was a true "happy hour" for me.10 -
Exercise- ran 3 miles this morning.
Tracked food - no
Stayed in calorie range - no - had lunch at my sister's, including a delicious vegetarian stacked enchilada (I guess you could call it a Mexican lasagna made with corn tortillas instead of pasta) and then ice cream sundaes for a late afternoon snack. Then since we got home late from the get-together DH and I decided to get Chinese food take out for dinner and oh my, I ate too much.
Have used up 2 out of 3 of my Pass Days now and it's only the 6th of the month. Yikes!
Actually I was just thinking 🤔 I should have waited until the 7th to start the UAC!!! That way I would have been PAST Labor Day weekend which was a challenge for me. 🤣 OH WELL. Now that the "end of summer" holiday is over, no more excuses, time for me to buckle down and get back on track tracking!😊
