Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes. A solo dog walk as hubby not well and an evening walk at the Wetlands. Our nephew is training at 29 Palms and has come for the weekend. He usually hikes for miles in full gear and 50lb+ on his back, but he was a star for keeping his Aunty company tonight.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? No, hubby brought home wings unexpectedly and I chose not to resist.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes
Out of my comfort zone: Same as @120maggie and @loopydo2017. I too, am not a social media person, much more a lurker. I'm also, irl, shy and not at all outgoing. I did though, approach a lady I see quite regularly about walking and we now walk together three times a week. We really click and have become very good friends.

Late check in for yesterday, yes x3
Exercise was a walk at lunchtime plus exercise bike and a few yoga stretches in the evening
Like many of you, joining this group and posting about my diet and exercise is way out of my comfort zone particularly owning up to bad days. It's made the difference between success and failure.5 -

It's out of my comfort zone to make myself do some form of exercise everyday. Since I have the challenge I've done this all month. It feels great to make myself do it because I know I need to do this to be healthy. Thanks to all of you for the encouragement to continue.
@RangerRickL I'm so glad you stepped out of your comfort zone and have this challenge available for us. I easily get discouraged when I've tried to lose weight. I have fatigue issued related to a health condition This past year I've had an accident ( broke bone under my rotator cuff), plantar fasciitis , ect,ect. Always something or some excuse. I have started a few diets that are unreasonable at best. Now I watch my calories exercise and log to hold myself accountable. Additionally I check in here to make myself accountable to the group. Thank you, thank you, thank you for making this available because I need accountability.
The day I joined your group I was so discouraged. I knew I had to do something. I know it's only been a very short time but I feel confident and strong and like I can continue. I am doing well so far with only one pass day. When I set my mind to something and I'm held accountable to it I succeed. Thank you again.
@Slimpossible007 way to go!! Sounds like you're on your way to a skinnier healthier you. Yay!!
@Dosse1320 No worries. You'll
get everything done and you'll be back on track in no time. You know the saying when it rains it pours. LOL

Pass day #2
Under 5k steps and either the 2nd handful of cashews or pint of Cider put me over the calorie limit. Only 200 cal over through so I'm relaxed about it and a fantastic day mostly sitting round in workshops.3 -
