    Yes for all three. I never knew how low calorie pickles are.... Can't wait to buy a jar tomorrow! Such a good treat for 5 calories! I walked 30 minutes but am hoping to walk more than that tomorrow.

    Did I stay within the calorie budget I set for myself today? Yes

    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes (Christmas Lights went up on the fence.) (Circuit training)

    Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes


    How would someone put (hanging up the Christmas Lights up) into their exercise diary? Which category would it be under? Would it be considered as an exercise or not?

    Thank you

    To 48Christy, perhaps you could just guesstimate calories burned and do a quick add entry?

    I ate out two meals today. The biggest challenge was "guessing" portions eaten! I felt lost without a scale and/or measuring spoons and cups! It really panicked the perfectionist in me :-(

    I didn't think about adding it to the diary that way. Cool, I am going to go add it now to my exercise diary . Thank you so much for the suggestion

    Know exactly how you feel....I call it "Undiagnosed" OCD!! My friends all laugh at me....at my age I've gotten used to it. If I had to guess you probably gave yourself plenty of room. By that I mean you entered more than you really ate. It's All Good!!! :bigsmile:

    If you stayed within your calorie allotment for the day you are still A-OKay (in regards to the challenge)!! :flowerforyou:

    Did I stay within the calorie budget I set for myself today? Yes
    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, I went running before work with the dogs...it was a brisk 29f outside...brrr
    Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes

    I have to say that this challenge keeps me mindful about what I put in my mouth. I've been a little sloppy with the tracking and eating over my goal the last month, so this has been good! I even lost a pound today after tracking my weight the last few days...woot!
