Pass Day 5 today. Got in a 5 mile run but stopped tracking at dinner, got a bit snacky tonight and believe I'm a little over calories. I don't track macros but do notice that I'm usually short on fat consumption, so should probably work on that.

3 Yesses 🙂🙂🙂 Exercise today was the treadmill. 3 miles alternating walking and jogging every quarter mile. 4 Pass Days used.

3 Yesses 🙂🙂🙂 Exercise - 3 mile run 🌥🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️ Pass Days Used - 4 NSV - after bingeing Sunday and Monday evenings, I've been back on plan, back IN CONTROL, two days now! 😁

Tracked - Yes! 🙂 Within calorie budget - Yes! 🙂 Exercised - Yes! Ran 5 miles 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️ Pass Days Used - 4

@josefinejem ((hugs)) I can relate. I'm on DAY TWO of "something about deserving chocolate because it's valentine's day, which then turned into a crazy overeating session in the evening." I'm sorry that you are now awake and can't sleep, I hate that when that happens! I took an OTC sleep aid last night because of last…

Pass Day number 3 used today...

3 yesses today 🙂 Exercise - 2 mile run in 20:30. 🌤🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️ 2 Pass Days Used

Used Pass Day 3 today because I decided to not even bother trying to approximate how many spoonfuls of the "Sweet Potato Pecan Pie" almond-pecan nut butter that Ds2 and his fiancee sent us. So tasty, sweet, creamy and crunchy, I couldn't stop! At least I got in a 5 mile run this morning. 🌫🌬🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️ Sleep. I'm…

3 Yesses today 🙂 Exercise was a 30 minute walk and 5 minutes using a medicine ball and crunches on a stability ball. My Whys: Vanity, Self-confidence, to stay healthy, and to do what I can to avoid a cancer recurrence.🎀

I've been running for 14 and a half years now, since the age of 47, and am now 61. These legs of mine need at least one day of rest a week--Sunday, and Thursday is usually a rest day as well. Although some Thursdays, if the weather is nice and my quads aren't feeling too achy I might go get a short run in on a nearby…

Tracked - No Within calorie budget - Not sure Exercised - Yes, a 3 mile run ⛅🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️ 2 Pass Days Used What keeps a binge from turning into a 2 day binge? The scale. The number on the scale is bad enough after 1 day of bingeing, it would be downright ugly after 2 days of bingeing!🙀

Regarding melatonin, you should start with the lowest dose, which is 1 mg. If that doesn't help, then try 3 mg. I agree with @WhatMeRunning that you don't want to take it for more than a few days at a time otherwise it's really going to mess with your sleep. I have a bottle of the 1 mg melatonin on hand and that seems to…

3 Yesses today Exercise - 5 mile run ☁️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️ 1 Pass Day Used

@LazyBlondeChef I am having the same problem as you, I now have to put in my userID and password every time I log into MFP using my PC. I hope they fix it!

Tracking is the most difficult for me. It's the reason why I joined UAC. I am now tracking on a more consistent basis because of UAC, but it's still difficult on weekends. Exercise isn't a problem for me EXCEPT on Sundays. Sunday has been my rest day since I started running in 2007 to give my legs a rest. I don't tend to…

Hi I'm Babs, and this will be my 6th month doing UAC, I started in September. Basic info: I'm 61 years old, live in the Seattle area, married for 34 years, have 2 sons ages 30 and 27 (the youngest is getting married in July), am a breast cancer survivor since I was 39, a runner since I was 47. I'm 5'3". My highest…

Wow, I am so impressed that so many UACers ended the month so strong! So many Yesses today! 👏👏👏 I had wanted to end January strong as well with 3 Yesses, but it didn't work out that way. Got a bit out of control this evening, by about 1000 calories or so, and didn't track it. Was stricken with the "last supper" mentality,…

Sunday was a Pass Day for me. Got a little lazy. I must confess I didn't put in the effort because it's almost the end of the month and I'm way past being in the Winner's Circle. Sundays tend to be lazy days for me anyway. ;) But today is Monday and I want to end the month strong, so today I WILL follow the 3 UAC rules!…

3 Yesses for Saturday. Exercise was a 5 mile run in the sunshine and upper 30s. :smiley: No Winner's Circle for me. But feeling like a winner so far in 2022. Have been maintaining my weight under 135. Today's weight is 134.2, BMI 23.8 :blush:

3 yesses Exercise was a 4 mile run. 33 degrees, mostly sunny, grass on the side of the trail was frosty but the trail itself was clear and dry, not slippery. 🙂 🌤🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Tracked - Yes Within calorie budget - Nope, over by 36 measly calories 🤣 Exercised - rest day from running but walked for 60 minutes. Have used more than 4 Pass Days

@lesdarts180 I was nodding my head while reading your post about a balanced diet of "lots of fresh freggies, small amount of meat, fish, eggs and cheese in moderation, etc." My breakfast, lunch and snacks tend to be meat-free, but most every night I have meat for dinner--usually chicken, turkey, pork, fish, or shrimp. And…

3 Yesses 🙂 Exercise was a 3.5 mile run. ☁️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

3 Yesses, exercise was a 2.5 mile run. Have used all my pass days but still a champ. 😄
