You have another busy day. I need to make myself a detailed task list daily. I might get more done that way.1 -
Wednesday’s check in
Calories: under
Exercise: 43 minute walk
Water: ✅
Steps 7/22 10,737
I still haven’t got to my walk this morning. I find if I don’t do it right away it is hard to get motivated later in the day. As soon as I finish my coffee I will do it. What do you do get get motivated at the start of the day?
Today’s goals
1. Walk 30 minutes minimum
2. 10,000 steps
3. Stay within calorie goal
4. Drink 8 cups of water
5. Bed by 10:30 pm1 -
@lindamtuck2018 I keep a master to-do list on my frig, add things as needed, check them off when done. I do Love checking them off. LOL Anyway, I revise and republish a new list each weekend. At the start of each day, I decide which 3-4 items MUST get done that day and that becomes my short list. If I get / make time to do others, they are a bonus.
I tried just keeping it on the computer ... but that makes it too easy to ignore ... and I frittered away my day without accomplishing anything. On the Frig though, it's there for me to see many times throughout the day.1 -

@lindamtuck2018 - I’m gonna need to be excused for weigh ins the rest of the month. I’ll still be here checking in and trying to keep up with everyone’s steps but I’ve got too much going on to worry about the scale.
Hope everyone is doing well. Tomorrow is the big day!! We get our house keys 🔑 🏠1 -

My wrinkles. As I lose weight my face is looking older. I think it is just extra skin on my face from fat loss. Age is a factor I am sure.0 -
