    exercise yes
    tracking yes
    budjet yes
    Took care of Buddy today.
    Sometimes I think that is not really exercise.
    But my back is telling me that it was exercise.
    But it isn't cardio.
    That is what I like.
    But I did walk to the department store early evening. That was more that 20 minutes.
    I am debating whether to drive for 4 hours tomorrow to get to one of my sweet spots.
    Spend a few days there is what I do to justify that much driving.
    I don't spend any money. I just pop up a tent and blow up an air mattress.
    But the thing of it is, Buddy not in Summer school (ESY) because of corona.
    Last couple of summers I go camping when Buddy in summer school.
    But I like hanging out with that little rascal if there ain't gonna be no school.
    The conundrum - ditch buddy for camping?
    What is more fun or joyful, Camping or hanging out with Buddy?
    So that will be the theme of today's pictures.
    What's a guy to do?

    Hello all!
    Yesterday was good but today I took a pass for an unexpected splurge. Lots of desserts - Ice cream and Oreos and BBQ CHIPS’.

    2 passes left
    Have a great day tomorrow!

    Pass day 3 for me. Snacked in the afternoon without first measuring and although I guessed the amount it was over budget even when I reduced supper and used all my extensive exercise calories.

    Not my greatest choices food wise but a great day from exercise point of view.

    Morning 5km run for a challenge where I have to run 5km for 5 days. Then off to my friend's house with housemate and boyfriend. We all had cake for his birthday and went for a walk along the beach with his little family. I've missed kids in lock down so loved spending some time with his 2 year old daughter. Then we did another 6 rounds of Jiu Jitsu. Ok, I did 5 around because asthma was playing up because I've been eating too much wheat. But I'm definitely improving on my Jiu Jitsu despite that. I made the first three rounds even though I felt it getting worse. Used pump after round 3 and fighting off a choke with the brown belt triggered it. Got it under control pretty quickly and continued. Next round had the biggest guy land with all of his 100+ kg on my chest (not deliberately, that is just the nature of the sport) and by the end of the round I knew if I pushed any more I would have a serious attack so I stopped. Then we all had lunch and did some yoga before heading home for series.
    Despite the lockdown and my not ideal food choices and asthma, it was a wonderful day!

    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? - Well, I was on my feet in the kitchen, cooking for 3 hours straight and I was exhausted afterwards. Not sure if it counts or I got my first pass day?
    Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? - Yes, barely under budget.
    Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? - Yes.

    13th June - pass number one used!! I knew I would as I had two invitations for dinner - one eating pizza in a friends garden late afternoon / early evening with the family, and one barbecue later with my girlfriends! Food wise I didn’t really indulge - but waaaay too much prosecco in the evening, bit it was just so great to see my friends again. So I had a fab time, back to my normal routine today though.

    That's up to you about the exercise -- I would certainly count it. You were on your feet, walking, and using your arms and hands for three hours.

    @oldDogBiking Love Buddy's little grin, and love the mountain view. That's a tough choice. Do other people watch over him during the week? Does he have other people to play with?

    Exercise - yes - on my feet all day, went for a walk with a friend
    Tracked - yes
    Calories - yes, but didn't feel very satisfied

    Due to poor planning for a busy day, I effectively skipped breakfast and lunch. Even after a hearty dinner, I still felt hungry and ended up snacking a lot at night. The snacks were healthy enough and the total calories ended up right on target for the day, but it was not nearly as satisfying as if I'd just had three good meals. I need to plan ahead!

    By reporting here each day, this challenge is making me clearly see patterns I would never have noticed otherwise. Thanks for the insight!
