    Here's a conversation starter ...

    My favorite month is pumpkin spice. I figure there is a reason why my birthday is early Oct! 😉 Does anyone else have a favorite flavor that turns up as a recurring cyclical yearly challenge to moderation? (Not necessarily a fall flavor ... maybe candy cane everything around Christmas, or mint everything around St Patrick's day / March for example. And maybe it is not "sweet" that is a problem for you, but "too much soya sauce around Chinese New Year" or "too much salty bbq spice mix per daily summer bbqing")

    Exercise? Yes 3.5 hours cycling
    Calories? Yes
    Tracked? Yes

    Phenomenal day for me. Trying to get out there and enjoy what’s left of the good weather.

    @BMcC9 I love pumpkin spice. Enough that I’ll shake the spices (with no sugar) onto some squash or sweet potato, stir in a little milk and be happy as a clam. My challenge to moderation is just “sweet”, any flavour will do.

    ECT for me -I went to barre class this morning plus I snuck out this afternoon and set the timer on my watch and started walking in the gorgeous weather for 7.5 minutes, then turned around headed back to my desk... a mini 15 minute pick-me-up.

    As for fall treats I like to add a small dollop of canned pumpkin to my morning oatmeal along with finely chopped dried plums, diced apples, cinnamon and nutmeg. It's a treat!

    Within calories budget - just barely, but managed it eventually. I might have counted the ones I burned via exercise and eaten them in the form of a liquor chocolate... 45 calories, don't want to hear it... yolo etc. :p

    Tracked - yup

    Exercise: good old walking - 8.41 kilometers - for free ! weather was lovely, birds were singing, the chocolate liquor (see above) was swinging from left to right in my head, good times! :D
