  • I've been part of the UAC since February, and this month will be the first where I didn't make it to the Winners' Circle: a vacation at the beginning of the month and last week did me in. But I'll be back at it next month and working on continuing those healthy habits and hearing great advice from other UAC members. The…

  • July 20 Exercised: 18 minutes yoga + 40K steps (including a 5K run in the morning before it got crazily hot and humid—the rest of the walking was safely indoors).

  • July 19 Exercised: Kickbox FastFix L2 + 31K steps Calories: Yes Tracked: Yes Glad many people were able to get back to the forums today!

  • July 15 Exercised: Ripped in 30 L3 + 30K steps Calories: Yes Tracked: Yes Awesome NSVs, everyone! I'll be back tomorrow to read more. :) For me, my NSV was how great I felt on my holiday to Hollywood for a Harry Potter conference at the end of June/beginning of July.

  • @Ketch_22, I read an article at some point (but no hope on remembering where) that indicated that there was actually no correlation between the cholesterol that we consume and the cholesterol in our blood that is bad for us. For a while, people assumed there was a connection because it made logical sense, but further…

  • July 10 Exercised: 24K steps Calories: Yes Tracked: Yes @RangerRickL, thanks for sharing both articles! I read another interesting article a month or two ago about the idea of willpower and how those who supposedly "use it most" are actually those who use it least because they're better at avoiding "situations of…
  • @Ketch_22, thanks! Being a pedestrian really helps. I get a bunch of those steps walking to and from work every day, and I typically walk during my lunch break as well. If something is within an hour's radius of me, I will probably try to walk there (and this weekend, I walked to something that was 1:45 away because the…
