            Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? No
 Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? No
 Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes
 I think I'm going to be bowing out for this month and maybe taking a bit of a break. This group has been incredibly helpful getting back on track with tracking, but I know I'm just not in a place to follow the rules consistently. I'm hoping I'll get back to a better place that I can return and really commit to the group and the rules, but I need to get some other aspects of life back on track first. You all are inspiring. 7 7

 Exercise? Yes (Does walking in heels give extra credit? It should. Lol)
 Tracking? Yes
 Calories? No5

            Exercised - Yes, ran 3 miles
 Within calorie budget - I think so
 Tracked - No, didn't track dinner. Since I'm already out of the Winner's Circle I decided to be lazy and not have to deal with logging the stir fry I made for dinner last night. Hard for me when there's multiple components to a dish--meat, a variety of vegetables and a sauce. Most of the time I just estimate something like that but last night I was lazy...🤣4

 @lesdarts180 and @WhatMeRunning I'm sorry you're not feeling well. I've been sick for 6 days now. I feel a little better during the day, but as the day wears on, I get worse. 2 COVID tests have come back negative, but this is sure kicking my behind. It's too bad it hasn't taken away my appetite tho..... Ugh. Ugh.
 Julie @jamcnewman what fantastic numbers! You're doing SO WELL!!! Huge congrats to YOU!!! 7 7

            @readyornot1234 & @Mrs_Hoffer Thank you both for your encouragement 💛💛 This group is such an important part of my journey now and I am so grateful for it and you.
 @Mrs_Hoffer @lesdarts180 and @WhatMeRunning — I am sorry that you are feeling poorly. Take good care of yourselves through what is now being predicted as the worst flu season in decades.
 @Katiecan2021 What a wonderful trip it will be to visit your family in Spain! Enjoy your time away and all that the experience offers. 🇪🇸
 @brisingr86 Wishing you well - glad we are connected and I can still see your successes (I see you are down 2 pounds this weigh in — way to go 🌟). Take good care of yourself.
 @seilidhe Yes, walking in heels burns extra and gets you superstar points 🌟👠👠🌟 I wore a short heel to the symphony last Saturday and don’t know how I thought they were “nothing” previously. I do not miss them. 😳2

            I’ve been doing a meal delivery so tracking and calories are taken care of!
