    I'm doing OK. I'm not going to do anything really different until I get my thyroid bloods rechecked in another month. I'm not allowing the Gremlins to take over but I'm also not walking around deprived.

    It's going to be a tough weekend. My hometown has their annual festival with the big parade kicking it off today and assorted activities all weekend. Spending most of the weekend there with my kids and grandkids. The gremlins will be crawling all over the place.

    The pizza gremlin got me last night. One more day of festivities. Stand back, I'm going in!

    The Pizza Gremlin is like the Capo di Tutti of the Gremlin Mafia. He needs to find himself with a horse's head in his bed.

    Just when I smacked down that Pizza Gremlin, the Funnel Cake Gremlin blindsided me - arrrgh!

    The Funnel Cake Gremlin. I know him well. Thank heavens I have not been to a street fair or anything like it all summer of I tremble to think of the horrors that would have occurred. My Gremlins yesterday included the The Scale Hasn't Moved In 2 Months Why Bother Gremlin. He is awful and completely got me yesterday. Him and his little friends!

    Question... So you update your goals monthly? And then start the count new each month?
  • BRaye325
    BRaye325 Posts: 1,383 Member
    Yes, that's what I've been doing. Nikki just keeps her 4 goals on a daily basis.
    If you interested, feel free just to jump in!

    I keep track of daily accomplishments, math not being my strong point. It really is a fun exercise to keep you mindful of what you're doing or not doing each day.

    I slacked on exercise and water. BUT I am under goal today which has been a huge struggle lately. So I am not entirely cheesed of.

    Great, glad to have you join us.

    Here are my goals for your reference:
    Stay at or under my calorie target
    Only eat measured portions while sitting down (No open bags or containers)
    Exercise at least 30 minutes/day
    Make at least 3 positive or fun comments to my MFP friends in my news feed
    Pre-log if I am eating out

    Nikki also has one for getting her daily water intake.

    So I blew off exercising today and didn't get in all my water. But I was under calorie goal, which matters more right now. So, yay me.
