Hello everyone,
I'm relatively new here to MFP and am looking forward to meeting more of the community. I have lots of bad habits I'd like to break and start creating new ones. I'm guessing that's what we're suppose to post here?3 -
Is anyone up for an exercise challenge in May? We could set our own goals (number of days, time, distance, steps).
I'm supposed to get 30-45 minutes of intentional exercise 5 days a week, but I haven't been reaching that goal. A challenge might help push me to make exercise a priority. Anyone in?4 -

APRIL CHALLENGE
I already pre-plan meals for the day. However, my daily CI fat %age had drifted up quite a bit, so:
I commit to keeping my CI fat%age within 2% of my daily goal 90% of the days. (Allows 3 pass days for celebrations 🤦♀️)
April Challenge:
CI Fat %age < 27%
🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣

🤦♀️🐣🐣🐣🐣🤦♀️🐣

Pass days:Tues 12: lunch outing with daughters. Hard to log accurately so taking it as a pass day.Up early today to do my Latin translation. I didn’t get it done yesterday as I was longer in Belfast than I anticipated. Also, one of the girls I was going to the service with collapsed at the weekend, and was in hospital for a couple of days. She was going back in yesterday for tests. I hope she’s going to be okay.
Fri 15: family picnic lunch, and dinner. As above.
Wed 20: Birthday celebrations
Sat 23: Garden Party
Tues 26: DH asked for macaroni cheese.

I just joined this week. I found this form. A lot of people post a sort of To Do list with healthy habits included. Then the next day review what you achieved and what you didn't.
Welcome! Hope this works out for you!3 -

@RaquelFit2 Welcome to JFT! The more the merrier. I find posting my goals makes me more intentional (sometimes LOL).
@beachwalker99 I'm in for a May exercise challenge! My knee is much improved, so I'm planning to walk dog at least 3 miles on a regular basis again. A challenge will be fun.
Recap R 4/28
1) PT exercises before work
2) Move hourly / stairs breaks 7.7K 28 floors yay 14/14 boom!
3) Net calories <200 red oh my stars just do it! / 96 oz. water My kryptonite (peanut M&Ms) got me last night. At least I drank my water.
4) Two very brief staff meetings done already / update cjs log comments / GA-S testing & F&D summaries / amend email inquiries to David / Facebook Live video / emails current My workday went cattywampus on me & not very productive. Oh well.
5) Call mom & dad good chat with mom, dad was busy / balance bank accts / update budget s/s / wash dishes / declutter (any kind) 15 min. / another ta-da? nope = 4/6
6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / retainers / Voltaren / pray & Calm / 6:15 alarm (PT exercises before work) really lazy
JFT F 4/29 ~ Skipped PT exercises before work, washed dishes instead.

- registered for Seroogy's Valentine 5K on 2.5.22 ~ medico nixed race b/c inflammation in knee due to overuse & my arthritis = sad me but good for my knee
- will register for Bellin 10K on 6.11.22 ~ first time in person since 2019

- watch for other events to add
8) Make efforts to keep in touch with parents, siblings and friends (most live in other towns or states) ~ keeping this goal as well
9) Continue to declutter bedroom, home office, former work from home space (a/k/a dining room) and basement1 -

@beachwalker99 - I’m in on the exercise challenge!
Not the length of time as you but I’ll be specific with my goal each day.
Finally after a year or more I feel like I’m caught up at work. Every weekend for months I have felt guilty for not going in. I am going to enjoy this weekend.

April has been like the parson’s nose, good in parts!!! Festivals are fraught with temptation for many of us. And this year Easter coincided with my birthday,
However, although finding ways of dealing with real life is difficult, it is not impossible. So long as we keep indulgences little and persevere with developing healthy habits we will prevail.

For May, my focus is:

Welcome! Hope this works out for you!
Welcome to the group @RaquelFit2
As @biohazardinc says it’s a good idea to start simple, and add new habits gradually.
You can do as little or as much as works for you.
💡💡💡A friend in another group does a Done list instead of a to do list. She finds it more inspiring to see what she has accomplished, rather than what she didn’t get to!5 -

Maybe you could break down the paper work. Commit yourself to sort just 10 pages or letters (and once you've started you'll probs carry on)
I have to do this with pots. Once I've used everything and my sides are cluttered with them. I think right ill just clean 5 pots at a time. But I normally end up doing the whole lot. But if I start to find my motivation going I can stop and know I still achieved cleaned a few of them.
Not sure how you can apply it to the paperwork because it depends on the kind of paper work and in what way it needs organising but just break it down to sort maybe 10 pages/day?
Just a thought3 -

April challenge wrap-up
SW (4/1): 171.4
GW: 166.4
4/8: 169.8 (-1.6) Really happy to see this number
4/15: 168.8 (-2.6) Halfway
4/21: 168.0 (-3.4) One day early this week
EW 4/30: 167.2 (-4.2) Not the full five, but a good result Having the challenge in mind helped me make healthier choices this month.
Meal planning: 16/30? - Better than half in a month with two weekend trips and the Easter holiday. I lost count a few times, so this number is probably low.
May challenge
Goal 1: 30+ min of exercise at least 5 days per week (tracked weekly)
Goal 2: 24 total hours of exercise for the month4 -

I missed posting on Friday. I went to the osteopath early, and to a couple of shops. I wanted paint as I plan to paint an old bookcase a bright colour. It was good weather and I also managed to do a bit of gentle gardening, I got some really cheap spring plants which were going over, hopefully they will settle in and be nice next year.
Today, Saturday,
No takeaway
Only one snack
2 more house viewings
Major tidy up
I have a lot of paperwork and bits and pieces which I brought back to my house from my parents. Today I plan to sort through it all and either put it away, put it in the car for other people, or get rid. I need my tidy room back, I have someone coming to measure my windows tomorrow, he needs to be able to reach them!
April Challenge
1/4/22 SW 168
30/4/22 165
3lbs lost in April. I'm grateful for that amount as there were a lot of days when I didn't consider my diet.
I only managed to meal plan about half of the time, I lost count. Must do better with that.
I'd like to join the May challenge (was it walking or exercise?) Anyway, I'll be walking, I think it will help me to get back into a routine of doing it more regularly.

I use both a calendar and an app for my "To Do" list and although they help I sort of ignore a lot of my tasks. Maybe this will make me do my list?
(I'm going to make my first one easyish)
Friday, April 29th, 2022
1. Change bedding. Yes!
2. Work in garden. Yes!
3. Clean Kitchen. (sort of)
4. 20 minute stretch. Yes!
5. Organize paperwork. (NO. I hate paperwork. Need to work on improving my paperwork org. skills.)
Maybe you could break down the paper work. Commit yourself to sort just 10 pages or letters (and once you've started you'll probs carry on)
I have to do this with pots. Once I've used everything and my sides are cluttered with them. I think right ill just clean 5 pots at a time. But I normally end up doing the whole lot. But if I start to find my motivation going I can stop and know I still achieved cleaned a few of them.
Not sure how you can apply it to the paperwork because it depends on the kind of paper work and in what way it needs organising but just break it down to sort maybe 10 pages/day?
Just a thought
Good idea. I need to get some kind of maintenance system going. I have terrible handwriting and sitting down looking at bills is stressful. But I'm much better than I use to be. Need to improve, I've always admired ppl who have nice organize files. I've seen a million YouTube videos on how to do this. I just need to do it.3
