❌ - Not Accomplished
Today's goals were to:
[1] Weigh every day; ✅ Yes! This is now a firmly embedded habit.
[2] Log accurately and comprehensively; ✅ Yes, weighed and logged every single sip, nibble, bite, taste and sample - even the flapjack crumbs that I'd normally have eaten without a second thought.
[3] Exercise 30+ mins; ✅ - Yes, walked briskly for 105 minutes and did 65 minutes of heavy gardening in between thunder storms.
[4] Keep calories between 1500 (+/-5) & 1800; ✅ - Yes, 1,495 calories
[5] Eat 4+ servings of fruit/veg; ✅ Yes, I ate 12 different varieties of fruit and veg today, though of course not all constituted a whole serving.

[7] Eat only for palatability and pleasure (no orthorexic behaviours!); ✅ Yes, I ate the rainbow today and had lovely meals!

[9] Write in my daily accountability/reflections journal; ✅ Yes!
[10] Check in with my sisters and offer support if required. ✅ Yes!
My July monthly goals are:
To cycle twice per week (Mon-Sun) for a minimum of 30 minutes per ride (check in weekly Sun pm) ✅ Achieved week 1, 2 & 3: 1/2 of rides completed so far in week 4 (cycled for 61 minutes yesterday).
To score 10/10 on my 10 daily accountabilities for the whole of July ❌No; achieved 9/10 on 12th,16th, 21st and 23rd July, so only achieved 10/10 for 23/27 days so far.2 -
