-
Yes x3 Finally got some bodyweight exercises in today
-
Yes x3 Walk outside in the evening and currently finishing up some apartment walking to get my total up to 10k

@FibroHiker even if you have too many pass days to qualify for the Winner's Circle, you can still stay in the challenge and make the Champions list! You can even adjust your calorie goal to a reasonable one now and then keep logging and checking in here as practice for November. I also am disqualified with 4 pass days, but…

Pass 4 A bit over today with tacos Still walked and did exercises though
-
Yes x3 Long walk and a tomato chutney steak and colored greens dinner. My husband and I both hit 10k for the day at the same time while doing dishes. We compared and saw we were both at 10,010 so took a photo. In this time and age, it's the small things :)
-
Yes x3 Walks are still my go-to form of exercise. Easy way to decompress and listen to a podcast.
-
Yes x3 Walk Stayed just under
-
Yes x3 Evening walk. Just booked a 9-day flight home over Thanksgiving. Will see my family and work remotely from there and will help my 87-year old grandmother get on her flight home. Excited to see family and get out of DC for a bit!
-
Yes x3 Walk in the afternoon and under with some delicious Blue Apron Korean-style burgers with cabbage
-
Yes x3 Did a 10k walk in a light rain this morning with my friend and her toddler and so ended the day with 16k steps. Ate lightly and ended up under by several hundred with exercise calories which is good considering I had two pass days last week.
-
Yes x3 Went on a 50 minute walk and cleaned the apartment. One thing I've started doing is turning on my Fitbit to start an activity-- I choose the workout option-- when I clean the house. That way it tracks how long I spent and gives me an added bonus to cleaning! Why yes, I burned 160 calories in 45 minutes :)
-
yes x3 Morning walk and afternoon exercises. This morning my alarm clock was an unknown number calling me :/
-
@MaltedTea looks great! Yeah that's a good description. You can change the ratio based on what taste you're going for too. I loveee peanut butter but there are so many calories in just a tablespoon that I find it helpful to mix it up with something else. :)
-
@dsgoingtodoit and @RangerRickL thanks for the encouraging words!
-
@Intrinsicat so cool! Pass 3 for me. Not sure how they happened so early but I've been busy and also hungry. Trying to stay in the challenge and not give up!
-
@SModa61 concerning eating back exercise calories, I did that and was still able to slowly lose and hit my maintenance goal. It took a while, so you might get faster results eating back fewer of this calories, but you can still get there with time. I also like to think of it as this: if you set your mfp activity level to…

@alligatorob will keep you in my thoughts and prayers as you undergo surgery. Look forward to seeing you back in a few days! Yes x3 Spent a few hours moving boxes of food volunteering at my school's family food market and got 10k steps during it
-
Pass day 1
-
@MaltedTea sure! I've copied one ratio below but you can adjust the levels of each ingredient based on your taste preference. I add a pinch of salt as well because I've heard salt enhances sweet dishes. Yours sounds like it would go really well with it! 1 6 oz container plain Greek yogurt 3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter…

Yes x3 Afternoon walk and another day of no alcohol so even though I ate a lot, I was under calories by a good amount when logging. Enjoying my yogurt-based recipes. Lunch was an apple with a yogurt-PB-honey-salt dip and with dinner I had a side of carrots, celery, and a homemade spicy herb full-fat Greek yogurt dip.…

Yes x3 Walking and bodyweight exercises.
-
Yes x3 Under with a walk
-
Yes x3 Long walk to pick up some hoagies then had that for dinner and no wine/alcohol again and was under. I'm about 1-2 lb more than my maintenance level that I got toast month so I'm trying to leave some more calories for a bit while I attempt to level it there.
-
Yes x3 Well under today due to healthy food choices plus no wine Exercise was a walk and my exercises Thanks @RangerRickL for the UAC winner's circle list as well as the committed posters list. Even though I didn't make the first, I felt proud to be on the second! Congrats to everyone else who faithfully logged and posted!

Yes x3
-
4 passes but still logging! Today was yes x3 with a walk and bodyweight exercises.
-
@BMcC9 I learned the corn trick this summer and it's life changing! So much faster, easier, and less hot in the kitchen. Why weren't we taught this when younger?! :)
-
Yes x3 Even though I'm at four pass days, I'm trying to end September with tracking rather than being lazy and skipping it. Under on calories with a walk and house cleaning.
-
@liberalfoodie I have an open diary that includes wine most days :) You can definitely be part of the group if your goal is more about losing fat than weight. You can set a calorie goal to achieve that (whether it's maintenance or a slow loss while doing body recomposition) and then report out if you'd like to share your…
