Hi all, I've been quiet for a few days. I was busy traveling for work. But I still was thinking of the team and did my best within reason, given the fact that I went to Crèpe country. And crêpes are definitely some of my favorite food 🙂 I've walked as much as time allowed, ate consciously and tracked as well as I could.…

Exercise: yes, biked to Ikea. (Not quit as glamorous as the guardrail @BuddysSurrogateGrandpa1, but had to errands...) Had planned to bike back as well but there was a crazy rainstorm, so i had to take to subway. Calories: yes! Without even dipping in the exercise calories which is rare these days. Avoided the Golden…

Exercise: 60 minutes elliptical + weights Calories - yep, well under Tracking - as good as I could @RangerRickL what a cool experience to go live with a Costa Rican family and learn Spanish for a year! Beautiful pic! Enjoy the trip and the company!

I am kind of ashamed to say I used another pass day today. I have stopped counting how many I have taken this month. It feels like it’s been every other day... But I’m still here to report. I’m not giving up. My weight is still dropping slowly but surely, I’m feeling better in my body and my clothes and I’m still doing way…

@Hollis100 very cool looking tree! Exercise: I got myself to the swimming pool at 9pm and swam 1.5km! I have to admit I was close to making an excuse today because I worked so late. I’m so glad I went. Calories: yep, with some to spare Tracking: every bite Excited to be part of the 50% that have stuck with it. I think this…

Haven’t posted in a few days. Congrats to all for the NSVs. It’s very nice to see all the positivity and inspiration. I’ve been doing ok. Took another pass day on Friday. I went dancing until 7am 😱. I did get my exercise in but it didn’t offset the drinks. It was a great fun evening though. Totally worth it. I’ve stopped…

Exercise: well, I guess it takes me 12 minutes to walk to work and 12 minutes to walk back. So I guess that makes my 20 minutes of exercise. But really, that’s far fetched. I’ve used all my pass days so it won’t make or break my winners circle regardless. I had planned a gym session but decided to go for beers with my new…

I went to a Pilates class at the gym today to change things up a bit. I typically am not a fan of Pilates but I really enjoyed it. I mighty as it to my workout rotation. I invited a friend and he liked it too. So that might motivate me even more! Counted them calories and stayed under, barely since I treated myself to…

Exercice: 60 minutes at the gym + biking around the city yo run errands Calories: I ate good today! Under my calories Tracked: yes So hard to change a habit for good... I like think it’s about finding enjoyment in the alternative habit. Although, even though I enjoy exercise and eating healthy definitely makes me feel…

Yesterday was my 4th pass day. I went a little over my calories. I don’t feel to bad because it was only a few calories over. So I’m already out of the circle, but I’m still happy to keep up with the challenge. Today was better! I had loads of delicious homemade veggies and some of the yummy cheese and brought back from…
-
Exercise: 90 minute bike ride and some dancing Tracked: yes! Every single drink I had until 4am :-/ Calories: over, the bike ride didn’t make up for the amount of drinking... I’ll be extra good today to make up for it :-) Pass day 3! Starting strong, haha. Evening outings definitely tend to throw me off track.

I set my activity level as low when I’m actually lightly active so my base calories are pretty low -> 1200. I definitely use my exercise calories when I go out. I try to eat them all back though. I estimate them with a HRM, so they should be fairly accurate. I also definitely need some extra food when I go on big ride…

Feeling much better today. This morning I decided to wear a pair of pants I hadn’t worn in a while. All day long, I kept realizing how baggy they were. It made me realize how much fitter I was even though the number on the scale hasn’t moved much. Definitely made me feel better. Exercise: 1 hour elliptical and weights…

Impromptu outing with a friend tonight. I didn’t get to plan for it. Hadn’t saved up on breakfast and lunch calories or gone to the gym for a serious session... Pass day #2 But I did get her to walk home a couple miles instead of taking public transportation :-) I’ve been having a hard time being 100% committed lately.…
-
Exercice: I was lazy but I just did a 25min Yoga with Adrienne. Certainly didn’t want to use a second pass day. Thanks to the challenge for the accountability! Calories: under Tracking: yes
-
Hi there, I haven’t been signing in every day lately, busy traveling around and hanging out with friends. Congrats to last months winners! Welcome to the new comers! And congrats @fitqueenbess for hitting goal!!! Well, I’ve been trying to do damage control, but it’s been challenging as I’ve been surrounded by amazing…

Yes, that’s exactly what it is. We started with a shovel and a pickaxe but than realized we needed more serious tools if we ever want to get to the bottom of the whole 😅
-
Exercise: dug a big whole in a very very clayey terrain today! Calories: yes Tracked: yes Happy Halloween to you all!
-
Was expecting a pass day today but I managed to stay within my calories. Quite proud! Exercise: 10k steps and some yoga Calories: barely Tracked: yes No winners circle for me. Kuddos to those you made it!
-
@w8goal4life @RangerRickL sweet pictures! I don’t have nice ones to share today but maybe I’ll have some fun stuff later in the week. Going to help a friend plant some trees in her yard! Exercise: rowing machine and lifting Calories: yes, just under Tracked: yes Tomorrow is going to be a tough one. I’m heading to southern…

Exercise: Yey! 7 mile hike with over 3200 feet elevation gain. Calories: well under today. I guess it makes up for the well over of yesterday ;-) Tracked: yes!
-
Pass day #6 Exercise: walk around town and some cleaning Calories: yikes, I should have had one less beer and forget about the chips. It’s wasn’t even worth it... Tracked: yes!

Hi all, I’m one of the yo-yo masters, I’m pretty good at loosing, and pretty good at gaining back. This time, I’m focusing on losing slowly, hoping it’ll help me stick with it. I’ve lost a little over 10lbs so far and would like to lose an extra 25. Second month doing the challenge. Really enjoyed the last one and am…

@Dory_42 what’s your job? Cant wait to hear about the details of your project. It’s so wonderful to have an motivating job! Exercise: back to the gym after 2 days of rest. Felt gooood. Calories: yes, with 100 calories left Track: yep Hope every one is having a great day!
-
I blew it :-s I’ve been partying a little too much... I had 2 pass day, making it a total of 5. I’m out of the podium but I’m still running :-) Planning on being extra good this weekend to make up for the extra beers/glasses of wine/jack&coke/shots that I’ve had the last few days! Yikes! Today was my husband’s birthday and…
-
This challenge is really great! I love seeing what everyone is up to. Exercise: 90km bike ride. Last leg of our trip. Cycle all the way back to our front door. Sad it’s over but man my legs are sore!!! Calories: under, but it’s quite amazing how much I need to eat when I exercise all day like that! Tracked: as accurately…

It’s the fortified wall of the old medieval town of Tossa de Mar. I have to admit I didn’t expect this trip to be this nice :-) the best part is that we are riding on very well maintained trails away from any motor vehicles. I love traveling by bike :-p
-
I don’t like the very sweet snack or processed foods on long ride. My favs are homemade trail mix (favorite salty nuts and raisins), dried apricots, PBJ and rice cakes bites. There’s a lot rice cake recipes out there but I like this one the best https://www.velopress.com/sick-of-sweet-try-savory-bacon-and-egg-rice-cakes/

Exercise: yes, bike ride 55km of rolling hills Calories: I had churros and still made it under my goal :-) Tracking: yes We made it to the coast today. It was a beautiful ride!
