My brain is on constant overdrive and I can only quiet it after I exercise for over an hour. I will check out What's on Your Mind....appreciate meditation info greatly...
The info has been posted and is all wonderfully as a starting point for me - thank you to all who contributed on this!
I am revelling in the aroma of just-finished freshly baked bread - and the knowledge that the first batch of "only available seasonally" pumpkin spice and spiced eggnog flavoured coffee beans are waiting for me to go pick them up.8 -

Even though I just polished off the remnants of a bag of chips, there's ample room for the rest of the evening (600+ calories). So even though it's only 6 pm right now, I'm calling it a successful night.
I walked for the majority of my errands (not calculated in calories above). Part of my shopping: two new workout leggings, an ab roller 😵, resistance loops (I already have bands) and some more zhoosh for a vision board.4 -

Favorite summer activity is likely why I am here - probably "eating". I am not a summer person. Fall is my favorite. I am not a bright sun, heat, humidity, or water person. So of course it made a lot of sense that hubby and I bought a place in the Florida Keys last year. I think I'm going to need to find a better favorite summer "activity". :P

⭐️ EXERCISE: Yes.
❌ CALORIES: No.
⭐️ TRACK: Yes.
I'm gonna use my first pass day today. I did get 10k steps and did 30 mins on the treadmill, but I forgot to log my gluten free pumpkin bread (snack) so when I went back and added it (tonight) it of course put me over my calorie goal and my carb goal. I was bummed that I forgot to add it earlier in the day -- but it's only 1 day, so I'm not gonna stress over it.
PASS: 1/3

Little achievement
Have been able to resist and limit portion control for about 10 days now. I had bought a jar of Macadamia Chocolate Clusters to add onto a tray of cookies I made for an event. Only sampled the cookies and then they were all out of the house. Whereas the left over Macadamias were still in the house tempting me. I have given myself permission to have "ONE" on the day I am under calories. So far it's working and I haven't raided the jar and am able to limit myself to that ONE.4 -
Yes, to exercise. Daily walk with my husband. Then we brought in six loads of firewood. Yes, I tracked. Went over on my calories. Another day tomorrow.5
-
Yes, yes, and yes. Though my exercise was more limited, it was still a good day.3

@RangerRickL and @dewit , it is up to how you want to do it, I wasn't at all active on Thursday so I called it a pass day, but I think if you.wouldn't call it that because you were sick that is perfectly fine too. These are the rules I came up with for myself. Like Thanksgiving, I've decided that as long as I exercise and track and don't go over my calories so much I would gain, I will not call it a pass. Technically I'll be over my calories goal, but I have a different goal for Thanksgiving.
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? 50 min walk.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes.4 -

2 pass days will most likely be used next week. one is for Thanksgiving and other for my daughter's baby shower on weekend after Thanksgiving. Its why I have tried to amp up the exercise the rest of the month, but who knows I may surprise myself when logging that I wont have to and I do plan on still working out. Its there if I need it though!5 -

Looks like I did not log yesterday and it was one good day! Walked, biked and did a little "lazy" workout for glutes, over 1h of exercises.
Had 300 cal left, because I didn't eat until noon.4
