Managed 3 x Yes with huge number of steps (two long walks out-of-doors in very pleasant weather.)

I am giving myself a S.M.A.R.T. target goal for Dec of 2.5 pounds down over the next month (by half-way between Christmas and New Years) .... which will put me juuuuuuuuussst inside the Normal BMI range, (24.99) and right at the top of my acceptable maintenance range. That averages out to between 1/2 and 3/4 pound per…

The UAC IS a great group and I would highly recommend it (or both there AND here) .... We can still keep this thread live if it is meeting people's needs.

Gratitude List Nov 28 * The aroma of freshly ground, almost-done-brewing spiced eggnog flavoured coffee - the very first cup of the season (this is a limited-edition flavour and only available until it runs out) * Being able to sleep late on weekends * DH willing to resume doing outdoor evening walks (now that the…

Gratitude List Nov 27 * My neighbourhood Bulk Food store (for keeping me supplied with bread machine flour all this time - they have even had a "click and curb-side collect" service going since early after the initial lock-down in mid-March.) * my little baseboard heater for when the damp-cold is settling in between my…

I haven't seen the "just sea salt" version in my area. I will probably get some pumkpin seeds (either pre-roasted or roast-myself) with the next Bulk Food Store order.

@SModa61 Even if you use all 3, you still qualify for Winners' Circle! (only after using 4 do you shift from Winners' Circle to Champions List ....) Given the usual drop-out rate (particularly in months like Nov and Dec ... ) anyone still reporting no matter what your Pass-total is TRULY a Champion!

regular day in terms of "no national holiday day here" Great day in terms of 3 x YES (including 3rd day in a row of 7 minute Pilates balance&flexibility plus ~ 35 minutes total of exergame time.

For those of you who have run out of Pass days ... don't forget about the UA Champions' List .... because you are still here and reporting!

Looking forward to seeing all these new "faces" on the Dec 1 page next week! (and all the recurring ones too!)

Looking forward to seeing all these new "faces" on the Dec 1 page next week! Happy Thanksgiving if you are in that part of the world ...

In the greater scheme of things, (so long as it remains the exception rather than the norm) .... one day by itself doesn't change much. And CONGRATS on getting in the 45 minute walk! THAT (as a trend) will tend to counterbalance the odd heavy-calorie special occasion (which is why UAC has built-in Intentional Pass Days ...…

It might not make much difference on a singe day ... but neither would "squats while waiting for microwave to re-heat coffee" ... yet over time, the difference would add up ... think of it as "arm and wrist strengthening" (do some bicep curls or lateral arm raises with the extra weight as you remove it from the cupboard /…

@readyornot1234 how do you feel about dark chocolate .... 'cause dark-chocolate Bark Thins with pumpkin seeds are fan-TAST-ic imo .... (only sometimes available - mostly I "have to settle for" Bark Thins with pretzel bits as DH can't have the "with almond bits" type and neither of us are interested in the "with shedded…

Nov 26 Gratitude List * A third "early morning win" in a row .... grateful to have discovered the 7-minute balance&flexibility routine on Youtube I am making a point of starting my day with now * When I feel like I am not accomplishing anything (or it seems to be taking sooooooo long) I go see what's new on this thread…

especially when walking up only one or two flights (depending of total size of building) can be FASTER than waiting for the elevator to show up in the first place. Leave room in the elevator for those who actually have the physical need.

bump - lots of good "ninja sneak-attack" ideas for burning small packets of calories almost while you aren't looking. Ah, the magic of metabolic "compound interest" ....

(Safely) enjoy this special day on the U.S. calendar, everyone there. "Just another day" where I am (Canada, being farther north, has their Thanksgiving Day in the earlier part of October) Did the 7 minute balance&flexibilty routine for the 3rd day in a row. No matter what happens at work, at least I started the day with a…

* met the more-than-20 minutes exercise goal (started the day with 7-min Pilates flexibility & balance video plus walked up to grocery store and back after supper, around 20 minutes each way) * but not nearly enough activity to break-even on the fit-bit net intake reading * DID log everything (which i consider a double-win…

The "3 rules" (log / exercise / under personal-definition of goal intake) allow for maximum personalizing to suit your own tastes and unique-to-you situation. * any kind of exercise - (and 20 minutes can be either split into multiple sessions if just barely starting to get moving / recovering from an illness or injury or…

Nov 25 Gratitude List * Fresh potable water at the turn of a tap. * My basic-necessities stores are all a short walk away. Even in winter, I would only need to drive to grocery store / drug store / hardware store (for DH's 'craft supplies') if a large/heavy or awkwardly shaped purchase order planned. (We plan our trips for…
