Pass day 4. Did indian takeout :)

This is a great group! I joined a little more than a year ago and it was super helpful in aiding me in losing the last weight I needed to get down to maintenance. It's not a who-can-lose-the-most group but instead all about building lifelong healthy habits with the support of a positive friendly accountability group. I'd…

Yes x3 After yesterday being a day full of activity and lots of food (but still under due to exercise calories), today was a day with much less food, no wine, no chocolate, and just 25 minutes of exercise. But it was my first bodyweight workout in weeks-- so it was nice to do something strength-based instead of just a long…

Yesx3 Was at school today making materials bags for students. It was so nice getting steps in just from regular activity rather than sitting at home in my living room staring at a computer screen. Went for a walk after work and ended with 17k total steps.

Yes x3

Yes x3 Walk and under. Enjoying the cooler weather

Yes x3 Made time for a longer 80 min walk today. It was nice to get back to that after having been busy lately.

Yes x3. Walked. I'm envious of people's amazing vacations! I hope they are fun, restorative, and relaxing!

Yesterday pass day 3 Today Yes x3 Just under on calories. 45 min walk.

Yes x3 Under and walked

Yes x3 though barely. Right now, to be honest, my main victories are scale-based rather than NSVs. Due to lots of work I've had a harder time focusing on exercise. My walks are shorter and I've had a hard time committing to bodyweight exercises due to work. I hope to get back to this soon though!

Yes x3 I joined a little over a year ago b/c I wanted to get off the last bit of weight to get to maintenance. I knew I wouldn't win any of the biggest loser competitions b/c I wasn't super far from my goal, so I liked that this group was more about habits and meeting your goals rather than how much you could lose. Long…

Yes x3 95 minute leisurely neighborhood walk in the morning and stayed under. Busy still with lesson planning, but at least today I was able to walk. Also did house cleaning.

Yes x3 Exercise was packing up boxes of things to donate (using the Nextdoor app) and walking them up and down my five flights of stairs several times. Yay decluttering! Under on calories.

Yes x3 Walk to and from picking up a pizza and salad about 2.5 mi away. Stayed under on calories.

Pass day 2 There seem to be a lot of us lacking motivation or struggling with exercise. I'm definitely feeling that. Being back at work (as a teacher virtually) has made my schedule less flexible but at the same time, I'm teaching via zoom rather than getting steps in naturally. So I need to keep exercising intentionally…

Yes x3 Just under on calories Exercise was just ten min of apt walking and ten minutes of cleaning due to too much work plus heavy rain outside So overall, barely made it

Yes x3 Chopped up some carrots and celery to accompany tonight's dinner and chopped extra for the fridge. I read a tip about submerging them in water to keep them moist. So I just put cut up pieces in a Tupperware and then fill 3/4 with water. I also have some premade yogurt dip so it's easy to take out for a snack later…

Yes x3 45 min walk. Why do long weekends always feel shorter than they are?

Yes x3 Walked with a friend this morning, ended the day at 12k steps, and stayed under on calories when taking into account exercise. I'm enjoying these extra 200 calories now that I'm in maintenance :)

Yesterday was pass #1 but today was yes x3 Went on a three hour walk with my husband, about half of which was in Rock Creek Park here in DC. Great to be on trails instead of just sidewalks!

Yes x3 Under on calories and exercise was biking, though got stuck in a thunderstorm on the way back, making it back about 5 min before the rain got really bad.

Yes x3 Calories was 200 under (oops -- I'm supposed to be in maintenance now, not too much under) and no wine. Exercise was just 20 minutes of apartment walking plus some stretching. It's been hard these last two weeks to do my normal exercise b/c of being so busy.

yes x3 A few hundred under and no wine today. 70 min walk but didn't get to my bodyweight exercises today.

Yes x 3 even though it was just apartment walking in circles for exercise due to rain Excited to be back in the circle!

Yes x3 I have officially reached maintenance status!!! I am so excited. Thanks to all of your for your support and motivation. It was nice to get the extra calories when adjusting my settings but I will continue to track and monitor closely in September to make sure that those settings are keeping me on track for…

Yes x3 Exercise walking and just under my limit

Hello! I'm a teacher living in DC. I enjoy long walks and cooking (I used to enjoy travel, scuba diving, and parkour but that's on hold for a bit). I'm back in the UAC for month 14! I started with the group last August as I was finishing up the last of my weight loss and just hit maintenance two days ago! I'm excited to…

Yes x3 Due to rain I wasn't able to walk but I did my 25 min bodyweight workout and tracked and stayed under.

Yes x3 Ate a lot but also exercised a lot: 4 hours handing out boxes of student materials at school for a socially-distanced back to school event, 25 minutes of bodyweight exercises, and 50 minutes of walking. I actually expect to be in the winner's circle which is very surprising to me. Since I was on vacation the first…
