Hello comrades and welcome to the first improvement megathread of March!
As usual, some discussion ideas:
- It's the first Sunday of the month. Is there something that you wish to accomplish or improve in March?
- Do you want to share something you've done in the previous week or month? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
- Do you have any streaks? For example, "sober for one day." Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
- If you don't have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
- Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?
I'm wishing everybody a great March!

This week I was out of town so I didn't track my meals. But I went on bike rides every day, practiced meditation on a few days and did some reading. Went hiking today. Overall I think it was a good week.
As I mentioned in the previous mega, the weather is starting to get warmer so I want to focus on exercise for the next 3-4 months. I want to develop a regular exercise routine. I think currently my ideal exercise routine would be running 2x per week and doing a bodyweight workout at least 1x per week. Doing yoga and hiking on the weekends. I'm focusing on cardio because my goal is to have more energy, good mood and overall health benefits rather than getting strong and building muscle (I want to focus on that later).
I want to start eating at maintenance so that I have enough energy to exercise. Does anybody have a recommendation for a good TDEE calculator?
MyFitnessPal has one but I'm like 99% sure they sell your data on free accounts. (And probably paid accounts too)
