    Mini Challenge

    Date: Tues, 2nd:

    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? yes, over an hour on my treadmill, added some extra steps while i was running errands after work today
    Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? yes, my goal is 1200/daily and I still had 751 calories banked at the end of the day due to my fitbit calculating just over a thousand calories burned
    Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? yes

    I had a rough couple days so I'm out for the winners circle in the mini challenge but I still need the accountability!

    Sun 3/31- no
    Mon 4/1- no
    Tues 4/2
    Tracking yes
    Calories yes
    Exercise 31 min Popsugar Fitness video

    Does anyone have a knockoff fitbit they recommend? I can't afford anything fancy but I'd like a decent step counter to keep me motivated. I get my workout done but then I think I spend too much on the couch.

    Check out craigslist or fb marketplace. I got a garmin activity tracker through fb marketplace for $10 about 2 years ago and it is still working great for him.

    You should definitely get the Fitbit brand if you need the team camaraderie/competition aspect. And I could use another teammate 😁. But as someone already said you can easily find a used one on Craigslist or within the Facebook yardsale pages. People are constantly upgrading and selling their old ones for cheap.
