Bravo @donna25trinity !! 🎉🌸❣️Exercise:
7 mile run, and a chill 2 hour hike.
Tracking:
Calories:
I went up 100 calories a day this past week and ended up losing .8 lb. Since I don't eat back any exercise calories, and I burned around 3500 in intentional cardio/weights/HIIT this week, I am fearful how low my maintenance calories are going to need to be--and when I let up on the exercise intensity, oh boy. Trying to decide if I dare add another 100 per day?
@bradkcrew
Re +100 cals…
Maybe just decide if you’d rather be sure not to gain weight OR if you won’t mind having to lose some of you’ve overshot your calories. I did fine over time I could eat more. We need to be patient & look at monthly & yearly averages. Just takes awhile maintaining until we have the data to do so!!

Taking a pass day. We went out for brunch and then had a wonderful dinner. Yesterday I did a pork belly rub/slow cook to make street tacos. It took so long we had an abbreviated late dinner last night. Today I prepared as it was intended. Quite good but pork belly and tortillas are rather caloric. I should be fine for the rest of the month since weekdays are rarely a problem.5 -
@LazyBlondeChef
It's been a family tradition to have homemade popcorn and sliced fruit for Sunday evening (that is dinner ).6 -
A very busy beginning to move items from our home to storage and to other people.
A 3 yes day.6 -
Every Sunday, we have chimichanga hot dish in a crockpot. It's ready when we get home from church, so that we only need to microwave some corn and add a bag of corn chips. It's my easiest day of cooking because the kids have taken turns for years making it! We garnish with sour cream and salsas/ hot sauces. Sometimes, we add a salad. The family, cousins , and friends love it. Since we started using crockpot liners, cleanup is a cinch 😂!

1. Tracked it all ✅
2. Kept within calorie limit? ✅ used 47 calories of today’s exercise surplus
3. Moved for 20 minutes or more? ✅ Dog training class this morning with some agility training and we really moved a lot with some light jogging on the grassy training space. Did my barbell routine, deep stretching, isometric exercises, and then a 40 minutes walk tonight with my husband (who manhandled Beau).
Today’s learning — I really can’t tolerate sugar. Our niece and one of her four children are getting more prepared for their journey to Taiwan where she is starting up an arts program at one of the American schools. Danielle’s absolute favourite thing I make is sticky toffee pudding, which we have every year at Boxing Day dinner. It was her special request and we had “Christmas in September” to celebrate their (hopefully) upcoming departure.
We had a Montreal bagel bar brunch which was totally manageable for my macros and the smoked salmon with capers was delicious. Then I had a dessert and it was delicious at the time — until the sugar crash hit. Drank lots of water and went for a deep one hour sleep when we got home. Blech.
I never crave sweets (my weakness is salty, crunchy), but I had dessert to be sociable. No more. Learned a lesson.6 -
Yes, yes and yes
Walking and a lot of activity around the house
@Healthymumlife What a lovely picture!
@LazyBlondeChef I can't say we have a Sunday traditional meal or do anything beyond the normal but it was really nice reading about what everyone else is doing.5 -

Things are different since I started clean keto this year regarding cooking large, shareable meals with leftover dishes planned from them. It started out with me still making some of our regular large dishes for the rest of the family but we would wind up with too much leftover that my wife and kids couldn't finish and they eventually got tired of even the thought of it!
I do still prep a lot of basics ahead though, cooking proteins up for example, indoors or out depending on things. That is used to prep quicker, more individual meals up for us later.

Sunday, September 26
Tracking: Yes
Calories: under - diabetes is a comorbidity of UC and my new meds can cause high glucose levels and really mess up insulin levels. I never had a problem with it until this weekend. So I’m off several meds and working to get my levels under control so my calories are low. I was told I have to start exercising daily and tracking my food to watch sugar and carbs (I already do this so I’m thinking it was mainly meds). They assured me tracking would get easier with practice as well as daily exercise. Ha! Thank you UAC! It is Monday morning as I type this and my levels are almost normal again. Since I am of normal weight, losing weight isn’t a concern. I’ve got this.
Exercise: Yes, full body stretch warm up 10 min, cycle 45 min, cool down ride, post ride stretch, focus flow yoga 20 min

Pass day. Sunday was a “mission day” to acquire things that made our friend who just lost her mom smile. We succeeded. It was a good day.7

Our Sunday dinners aren't fancy; I usually fix something that doesn't take a whole lot of effort. Every once in a while I'll pan fry DH a steak which I did last night and also fixed him some mashed potatoes to go with it. I had scrambled eggs for something light since I didn't get much calorie burning exercise. We both had cooked veggies and carrot sticks on the side.
