    I like these two goals a day. Definitely one step at a time!

    1. Drink more water (My work is busy so I'm running on caffeine)
    2. Get some fresh air (Again I'm sat at my laptop all day then swapping to a ps4 after dinner)

    Hi all! For those of you listing your daily goals, if you would like, post them in the following thread. It is a nice way to interact with other team members. Keep posting them here though.

    Two goals for today:
    1. Meal prep chicken salad for next two days.
    2. Boil eggs for the week.

    Completed goal 1. Slacked on goal 2, just didn't want to heat up the kitchen.

    Wednesday's two goals:
    1. Take a shower and wash my hair. I have help today and will be taking advantage of them. Still can't get the bandage on my nose wet, hence NO showering or hair washing since surgery since last Friday.
    2. Make two days of tuna salad for lunches.

    I think will do it for today.

    Didn’t quite make my daily goals today.

    Thursday goals ( post tonight so I’ll do them tomorrow):
    1. Exercise ( walk doesn’t count either a run or weight training)
    2. Water intake to 50 oz or more

    I have been doing good considering I haven’t been able to fit much extra exercise in.

    I have been SO busy between my two jobs that my gym routine has been shot. I am hoping to get back to some version of normal next week. I actually miss the gym. :(

    Well gang batting at .500 again for yesterday. The shower and hand washing took a lot out of me. Lots of prep for that one, but got through it successfully and the nose bandages stayed dry ... 👏👏🎉🎉!!!

    Did not get the tuna salad done. Instead played around with a Chicken BBQ Cole Slaw fusion salad. Was tasty and hit the spot. Will work on it and may provide a recipe at some time.

    Thursday goals:
    1. Boil some eggs.
    2. Prep some veggies: cucumbers, squash and carrots.
    3. 25 squats.

    Stayed the same this week. I’m terrible at this challenge! I keep sabotaging myself, I’ll be great and stick to my calories all week then one bad day and I’ll put it all back on. Any one have any suggestions to help with motivation? I’ve tried rewards (not food), I thought the team challenge would help but it didn’t, I know exactly what I need to do but just can’t get it done

    I just read a great article. It's not about motivation, but it easily explains things that fit in with most of my way of eating that might give you some new ideas, if you are interested. Obviously different things work for different people, but when I used to have trouble staying on track it often came down to the type of food I was eating which made me crave things that took me off course. https://www.1843magazine.com/features/death-of-the-calorie

    One thing I do, is plan my meals the night before for the next day. Also, remember if you are counting calories and logging your food, you can fit those treats in you diet. Tonight for example, I will be having some Tim Hortons chili for supper and bbq chips for my snack. Walking daily gives me some extra calories to play with for the days I might be eating a little extra.

    I also weight myself daily. I use the app happy scale. I tend to retain a lot of water. So it lets me see the fluctuations. If yesterday had been my weigh in day, I would have been up over 2 pounds. But I was still losing water weight from high sodium meals for a couple of days in a row.
