Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, 26.45 KM (16 mi) bicycle ride. Shorter than yesterday, but pushed harder on the upgrade at the start. 1:37:08 16.3 KM/h avg.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes, easily.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes.
Favorite winter activity? I no longer know. Years ago, I would have said Ice Climbing, or maybe Nordic skiing, but I haven't been very active in recent winters. I hope to change that in the next one. It will likely be hiking and bicycling as their great virtues are low cost and that either can be done alone
On a side note, whilst speaking with a friend on the phone last night, she asked if other people tried to discourage me from making dietary changes. I said no, there aren't many other people in my day-to-day life, and very few that I share meals with. The one exception happened when I told a couple of my biker pals that I was cutting out beer and restaurants except for special occasions. They reacted like I had become insane.6 -

My favourite outdoor activity is walking my dog
He is a Husky so he enjoys the weather more as it gets colder. We usually walk at least a couple miles in the run of a day

Pass day for me today. Travel day. Got the exercise and tracked but misjudged calories eating out.
My favorite outdoors is hiking mountains and walking the beach. I do just about every outdoor activity but those are my most enjoyable!4 -

Today is one of my extra long days in which I get home at 10 p.m. I enjoy public speaking so the actual presentation is fun, but afterwards, I am just tired.
Nonetheless,
Today was a yes X 3. I don't usually take that shortcut, but tonight, I will.

Stay. And fight. There is nothing more amazing than a comeback, especially when people don't expect it.3 -

Yes x 3, weight lifting for exercise.
I increased my exercise this week, with an extra dance class and an aerobics class, in the hopes of losing weight. Which I did, a tad. But, I wore myself out and could barely lift my weights on both trips to the gym this week. It's tricky finding the right balance.
For outdoors, when I lived in Southern Calif my favorite exercise was snorkeling and ocean swimming. Nothing comes close to that experience for me. Now that I live in Northern Calif, where the water is freezing and treacherous, I hike along the beach cliffs with my dog.4 -
