March 3rd - Pass Day 1 Exercise: Nope - not even my usual walking as I am working on a uni assignment and I basically haven't left the house for two days. Tracking: Good Calories: Good - I am feeling so much more comfortable at this new calorie goal. I weighed today and after putting on half a lb last week and the week…

You're right - it's so much better to reach an achievable goal than beat yourself up over an unachievable one. I hope you get what you want on the scales at weigh in! :smile:

March 2nd Exercise: 25 mins yoga Tracking: yes Calories: yes I took the decision on this day to change my weight loss goal from 1lb a week to .5 lb a week. I think the restrictions may be behind my epic binges somewhat. I was hangry by 4pm yesterday and that extra 250 calories makes a big difference. I am already within…

Thanks @Kwinnero I don't know. I just drank water and tea all day which is what I normally do (apart from the days when I have a bottle of wine :wink: )

SAME! I am also going to try and use less pass days this month.

March 1st Exercise: Yes - walked from the train to uni (40 mins) and from town to the train (20 mins) Calories: All good - felt very satisfied actually after two grain salads for lunch and dinner (I didn't plan it that way - there was catering at lunch, but they were both different and delicious!!) And a big bowl of fruit.…

Hi all, this is my 2nd month of UAC. In February I crashed out spectacularly both with illness and a busy end of the month. I don't think I will get Winner's Circle this month as I am going away for my birthday, but I would like to do better than last month. The strategies that work for me are: Prepping and pre-logging as…

Just had 4 pass days in a row visiting family. Lots of alcohol and snacks. I have put on another half pound this week, which makes a pound over 2 weeks. Oh well, I'm back on it today with my pre-prepped and pre-logged breakfast and lunch and for the next 2 days too. My goal is set for 1lb a week loss, so if I keep at it I…

February 17th Loving the pet pictures. We have family and friends with allergies so we don't have any pets. Another frustrating day. Did a 4 mile run/walk and a short yoga session. Logged everything but ate far too much again. This time it was the alcohol and a delicious meal cooked by my in laws (followed by 10 biscuits…

February 15th Aaargh another pass day. Went to uni and planned my food out perfectly but then spoiled it all by coming home and eating a load of snacks. Loving all the NSVs.

@MadisonMolly2017 I know just how you feel. A few times since starting this new way of eating I have planned a 'binge' on all my old favourite foods and alcohol and it was a real insight into how joyless it used to be. Since my last one a couple of weeks ago I have found it much easier to stick to the plan.
