It's important to stick around the UAC and continue to post everyday..... even after you've used up your 3 Pass Days for the month. It helps to keep you in the habit of tracking and logging every single day by keeping the 3 pillars in the forefront of your mind - even after you feel like you've "failed" and feel like giving up for the month.
No matter how many Pass Days we end up using, it's more important for us to to keep working at it than to give up, drop out, or just "take the remainder of the month off!"
We need to not think of it so much that we've "failed"... yes, we may not qualify to be in the Winner's Circle, but we are a CHAMPION if we continue logging every day through to the end of the month! Try to think of it as "practicing" for next month's Winner's Circle!!
I think that sticking around and being a CHAMPION is often just as difficult (if not more difficult!) than staying under 4 Pass Days! (just my opinion!)So here's our list of amazing CHAMPIONS for December!!

Wowsa @roma7774 7 miles! That's fantastic! I usually do a very long walk on the weekend, I call it my #icecreamwalk , but haven't done that since November. I'm a wimp and I just hate the cold. I know I need to just layer up and go do it, but I haven't been able to muster that much energy yet! Lol.
Kudos to you tho!!

Treadmill run. I hate treadmill runs but itβs winter soβ¦ itβs what Iβve got. I think Iβm going to look on YouTube for some trail videos I can watch while Iβm running so I can at least pretend Iβm on a trail.
I had Lightlife Buffalo Tempeh today for the first time (I eat tempeh a lot but never got a flavored before). Holy bananas was it good. It had quite the kick!9 -
Off topic, but a couple months my daughter and I bought tickets to the Van Gogh Immersive in Chicago for today. I know itβs showing in many other cities. If you havenβt seen it, GO! Itβs absolutely mesmerizing.
My 3rd pass day today.10 -
