I hesitate to be a specific-day-of-the-week 📣CHEERLEADER/READER/COMMENTER 📣 this month, but will add myself to being a Floater for READER/COMMENTER for Dec and see how that goes from my own commitment-perspective. (if you need a fill-in for a specific Wednesday, especially Wed Dec 1 ... we are already MFP friends so send a…

First time for me on this Volunteer thread .... IF I am interpreting the various posts above, Dec 4 (Importance of Tracking) is still open? If so I will take that one. Echoing @donna25trinity ...* if someone specifically asks for one of the other remaining openings, they get 1st-preference * @donna25trinity for a blank if…

Hello, all. I am BeeJ ( @BMcC9 ) I used to be a long time UAC member, then I dropped off the face of UAC (and MFP itself) back in March of this year for ~ 7.5 months. But I returned to the fold Oct 30. My goal for Nov. was to become a Champion. Just Show Up and gather data (no matter how good vs not-so-good vs downright…

Exercise: o:) more than 40 minutes walking exergame plus an outdoor walk in the (cold) sunshine. over 11.100 steps before bedtime. Logged: o:) everything In Goal: o:) with all the fitbit exercise calories granted, it would have been hard TO eat "too much" :D Made a point to eat SOME of the exercise calories (in the form of…

I did a poll entry just so that it would be an entry.

Winner's Circle is looking very promising for me ... been staying strong at only 2 used since mid-month.

Tomorrow will be 30 straight days of logging into MFP (and tracking food / exercise as I am here anyway ... :D ) following a 7.5 month stretch of being "missing in action" from all areas of MFP. My next mini-goal is to double down and make it a full 60 days - two months of daily showing up (no matter the %s of good vs…

Exercise: o:) more than 20 mins on walking exergame (more than 8,600 steps by the time I climb the stairs to bed) Logged: o:) everything In Goal: o:) LOTS of exercise calories left over.

Thanks. I had discovered meal-by-meal copy over to other dates and from other dates. And the "edit the size of an individual item - eg copied-from-yesterday toast was 45 gr / today's slice was 52 gr Wondered about an "edit" or "pencil" / select whole day / tap on little dots equivalent to explore to see if there was more I…

Important news just discovered on another of my bookmarked discussions ...Bulk Editing of Food Diary .. How To on iOS and android devices! Please let me (and all of us) know if there is a website counterpart .... I don't use either phone app, and I might not be the only one.

Important news just discovered on another of my bookmarked discussions ...Bulk Editing of Food Diary .. How To on iOS and android devices! Please let me (and all of us) know if there is a website counterpart .... I don't use either phone app, and I might not be the only one.

and if you are on the website, not (either) of the phone / tablet app(s) ? (fingers crossed)

Exercise: o:) 2 good exergame walking sessions, plus other walks for a total of over 11,000 steps by bedtime Logged: o:) ended up with fitbit granting me 300 exercise-credit calories. Only ate back half of those (don't like leaving THAT big a gap between calories eaten and calories earned. Generally, I try to earn / leave…

giid to see you, @stella7x7

Exercise: o:) lots of active-walking minutes in multiple stretches, for a total of ~ 9,500 at nearly-midnight. Logged: o:) everything In Goal: o:) all exercise calories (and there were LOTS) left untouched. Just the way the evening worked out. Here I am, first month back after 7.5 months MIA .... only a week to go .... and…

@WhatMeRunning speaking of chair exercises and Youtube ... there is a very wide variety of intensities, length and areas of focus too ... so maybe you would be cleared for a less energetic one at first (due to other healing) and be allowed into more energetic versions soon enough even before you are eventually cleared for…

What gets measured, gets changed. The true value of this program, which reboots at the beginning of each month, is that it fosters self-awareness in a supportive, encouraging, ready-to-offer-alternatives-or-a-hug environment. The three daily goals can't always be met every day. Life Happens. But even if you get to a fourth…

Already joined the Dec group.

Exercise: o:) more than 70 minutes and 13,537 total steps on the day o:) Logged: o:) everything In Goal: o:) (would have been VERY hard to "accidentally" eat more than that total exercise calories fitbit granted me ..... not so easy to do so on purpose with what was in the house either B)

On Nov 2, @victorious55 had these words of welcome and encouragement for new and returning members (and reminded us about sea otters, who hold hands as they sleep out on the ocean, to keep from drifting off away from mutual support)

@biketheworld Re #2 ( Once I hit 4 pass days, continuing to adhere to the 3 principles of the UAC ) @Mrs_Hoffer opened Nov 3 with what making the Champion's list is all about. I threw in a followup from Back In The Day before the idea of the Champion's list had been inaugurated. (see spoiler)

Exercise: o:) more than 25 minutes walking exergame. 6615 steps on the day. Logging: o:) everything. In Goal: o:) had an afternoon snack, then shorted the evening snack to keep just under 100 exercise calories uneaten (shorter set of steps, so less exercise calories available to work with.) I am trying to shift more…

I just saw this article in the MFP blog section. Its about using imagery to help achieve your health and fitness goals. https://blog.myfitnesspal.com/use-your-imagination-to-reach-your-fitness-goals/ I would like to know others' opinions about it.

Exercise: o:) two long walks outside - 7504 steps on the way (fitbit granted 85 exercise calories in all) Logged: o:) absotively posiloutly. On goal: o:) Pass days to date" 2 / 3 (one bad planning; 1 no exercise )

The important part is the self-awareness that comes from reporting / acknowledging. Way to act like a CHAMP!

But you DID check in. Doesn't matter if it is within 3 days, so long as it is in. Way to practice being a Champion!

If you always do What you always did You will always get What you always got. The definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over, while expecting to get different results.

Bu you are still reporting ... way to be a Champ!

Exercise: o:) 2 x 25+ minutes in the walking exergame. total of 8,539 steps on the day. Logged: o:) totally Within goal: o:) even with a relatively "calorie-expensive" home-assembled pizza for supper, only minimal exercise calories applied On weekends, when I sleep late and therefore only have 2 meals and one or 2…

but you are reporting in. Way to go, Champ. Keep that self-awareness habit strong, and the rest will come.
