You are going strong!

Reporting like the true CHAMPION in the making you are!

'Atta girl! You are on your way!

Good to see you, CHAMPION! (off to a strong start!)

@SummerSkier soooo, after loading the personalized initial baseline data at the top, and when you get to the first Week / Stats / Mon / Tues / .... part, that would be Weight and "Cals (consumed)" per day across the row? Or would that be "Cals (the fitbit said I burned) per day? (Not entirely clear on the TDEE thing in…

and acting like the CHAMPION you are!

And you are here. And you caught up on your reporting. So that makes you a CHAMPION!

But you reported in!! Way to behave like a CHAMPION!

But you reported in! Way to be a CHAMPION!

I downloaded the spreadsheet - any info on where to go to find out how it works???? (what am I looking at entering where? What changes does it track and what do they meeeeeaaaaaannnnn??? )

Exercise: o:) plenty of walking both outside and in exergame Logged: o:) Alllllll IN! In Goal: o:) Even better than The Plan, as I just didn't want the (planned) evening snack after the slightly later supper. B) (so I "didn't eat it or an alternate any way" )

I am reposting a picture I put in yesterday ... I want you to reeeeeeeealy LOOK at the dips in the Reality Map. Notice that (apart from the first one) the dips are actually higher up the total slope than the starting point. And that each one requires a different kind of strategy to get past. This is why tracking is…

Exercise: o:) lots of walking in the sunshine (to the point that i didn't neeed to also do my exergame ... I will be making TWO rainbows tomorrow B) ) Logged: o:) all in! In Goal: o:) no bouts adout it THIS time! (see my entry from Dec 2 inside spoiler if you don't know what I am talking about)

The Importance of Tracking In the final analysis, The Ultimate Accountability Challenge is all about SELF-AWARENESS; OWNING the choices you made to eat / not eat something, or be intentionally active / intentionally inactive. And (this is the important bit!) coming to recognize your individual, unique PERSONAL PATTERNS.…

Try F.a.i.l. (After all, to F.a.i.l. (by definition) is "First Attempt In Learning") Define "lesson learned" Adjust plan Try again. F.a.i.l. better this time Define "next lesson learned" Adjust plan Try again .... Eventually..... Succeed! Repeat!

In relation to the above, I found these VERY relevant images. To Succeed: You must first improve. To Improve: You must first practice. To Practice: You must first learn. To Learn: You must first fail. To Fail: You must first try.

I looked on Google images for "if you crave X, you are missing Y, so eat more Z (healthier alternate source of Y)" charts. I couldn't find "missing Niacin" anywhere, but I DID find that PB could be the body trying to jolt-replace protein, or fat, or potassium. There ARE entries for all three in most "if you crave X, you…

Exercise: o:) well over 10,100 steps (exergame plus outdoor walking plus general walking AND an extra 100 cals (10 minutes) on the stationary bike. Logged: o:) everything, including the weighed (but more costly than expected) Doritos. Haven't had Doritos in an looooong time .... In Goal: ????? Maybe someone else with a…

Exercise: o:) LOTS more than 20 minutes worth of walking ... over 15000 steps worth! (some exergame, some walking outside, 2 sets of "pacing while on the cordless phone" o:) Logged: o:) EVerything In range: o:) well under.

So @jamcnewman , I came back on Dec 1, Between Nov 28 and right now, it is showing "18 votes" and the spread has shifted a bit. So one DOES see the "running total" each time one checks back, and Fitbit is still ahead (whatever that means :D ) but not by quite as big a percentage.

Exercise: o:) over 14,300 steps (and not quite bedtime yet) So met with a VENGEANCE today. Logged : o:) all in and accounted for! (including the pumpkin spice pecan butter tart) In Goal: o:) what with sooooo many fitbit-credited exercise calories .... easily done with LOTS of uneaten exercise credits still in the pot. ALL…

"YAY ... I shall do my Happy Dance (for you-all)!" (cue skipping baby goats) to everyone who is reading this! Be you Winner's Circle, Champion, or started-stalled-returned before the end. We made quite the raft of sea otters this month, didn't we? Holding hands out there, keeping each other from drifting as best we could.…

Exercise: o:) more than an hour of walking in my exergame. (452 fitbit exercise calories earned!!) Logged: o:) everythng In Goal: o:) even with deliberately eating some of the exercise calories for my evening snack, I STILL left over 200 "in the pot!) Pass days used so far: 2/3 No matter what happens tomorrow (Nov 30) I…

yay YOU!!!!!!! (not sure if the "skipping baby goat" gif would upload properly, soooo ...... )

Exercise: o:) more than 20 minutes of exergame walking - earned 115 fitbit activity credits Logged: o:) all in In Goal: o:) yes. left over 102 of the fitbit credits uneaten. STILL on track for Winner's Circle - still one pass day available, and only 2 reporting days left in the month ...

Can you tell me the name of the "virtual shoreline challenge" arranger / sponsor / company? Do they have other challenges? I see a site called [url=" https://www.theconqueror.events "] https://theconqueror.events [/url] that has various choices ranging from 21 miles to 2280 miles .... and some others that seem to be…

my toaster-oven theoretically has an air-fryer function setting, but we haven't experimented with it yet

Way to be reporting in , Champ! Awareness + repetition/reinforcement of what works for YOU is what will get you there in the end.

hope that pass was "semi-planned / intentional" and that you had a wonderful thanksgiving too. If it was "just one of those days when Life got in the way .... Way to be a CHAMP just for showing up and reporting in B)

hmmm I came back today (afternoon Nov 28) and what I see in the top bit is "results spread on 16 votes" (and the various percentages) I will come back on the 30th to see if what I see in "results spread on X votes" has changed, or if my view has "frozen at me being 16th" (I honestly don't know if I WAS 16th, or if others…
