Yes x 3, did 25 min on the bike.
Explained UAC to my family otherwise it would have been impossible to sneak off for those 25 minutes (full house this weekend). Very happy to be able to use this challenge as justification to get some exercise in even on busy days.4 -
Feasted with my mother & the mother of my children & the mother of my grandchild. Ribs on the smoker. Logged it all. But it's a pass for me today.6

Yes x 3
Just barely made it for exercise but unloading the car from travel and walking the dogs saved the goal!
Moms are amazing. Happy special day, moms.4 -

the challenge's description says we're allowed to join til the 7th of each month but I was still able to join today on the 12th and I just wanted to know if I'm allowed to do that or if I gotta wait til June, I don't wanna be intrusive lol
Not at all intrusive, @peachpastries ... spend the rest of the month practicing and in June you'll be ready to run for the Winners Circle

Exercise yes
All personal goals met today on steps and stairs. Love it when the Fitbit lights up green for goals met.

Tracked yes

Exercise yes
Rained today much of the day. When I'm at home able to do treadmill, walk for even vigorous housework. We are staying in our travel trailer while looking for a house. It was close to 10pm could not will my body to get up and drive to Wal Mart to walk. In steps DH. He drove me there and looked in the sporting goods section while I walked around the store. I'm giving him credit for this day saved from the dreaded pass day.
Calories yes
Tracked yes.
Only one pass day and it's getting to the hallway point. Many obstacles but overcoming then so far.
@MadisonMolly2017 very thought provoking post on contingency plan a couple days ago. I have to have many and end up kicking myself when I don't give myself time to do them. I try to pack carrots and celery sticks to munch on. I usually pack my lunch even when running errands and shopping. I also try to think about my day and where I will be and try to plan walking into it when I know I won't be in my normal routine. Unfortunately I do not do the above as much as I should. Your ideas were spot on and motivates me to do this more often.
After all it's up to us to take care of ourselves and being proactive makes for success.
Thanks again for the post
@RangerRickL is right you are our cheerleader. 😉4 -

lol this is me daily. Ever since I got my fitbit my fam is used to me randomly getting up and walking around to get my hourly steps. So I too will out of no where go for a long walk. My son thinks it's a house arrest bracelet. Yesterday I had to run up and down the stairs while my daughter dealt the uno cards
