I love all the formats people are coming up with for this! It is good to include the goals and the day's results but it can be cumbersome. But you all are equal to the challenge! I'm going to steal from various people and see what I like using the best

March 6 - Day 4/75
❌ Food - pescatarian, tons of vegetables, zero sugar or flour, all whole foods. Today included eggs and cheese as I was desperate after giving blood and went out to a breakfast place. I never had this kind of reaction after giving blood before, but eating and resting helped.
✅ No alcohol no problem!
❌ Exercise - Two workouts per day, aiming for 45 minutes strength/Pilates, 45 aerobic. A very low blood pressure day, and giving blood did not help - no strenuous anything today. Good walking outside, but nothing else.
✅ Reading - something helpful at least 10 minutes per day. more Who By Fire
✅ Water - around 60 oz. per day 80 today
✅ Thoughts - post daily about what I am thinking about all this. I will plan my schedule carefully for tomorrow, and pre-log food. It has been a bit chaotic for the past 2 days, and I can feel slippage wanting to rush the door

I woke up at 5:30 am to get my outdoor exercise in (even though it was a walking video) in the rain. That was fun...not. It literally rained all day, so I wasn't going to avoid it.
I've been reading a book called tiny habits. It's interesting, but I like atomic habits better so far.1 -

@daria0919 what 10k training plan are you following?
@lauren_989 I signed up to do a 10K locally and they have a ‘training team’ that meets Sunday mornings for the long group runs. The organization that’s sponsoring the race emails participants a schedule to follow, week by week, so I’m using that.1 -

One week in and going strong! I had a dream last night that my husband had a cupful of red skittles and I ate some. Then I realized that broke my diet. I was soooo bummed. It even took me a few minutes after I woke up to realize it was just a dream and I was still on track 😂
Drinking the water has gotten easier over this first week and I even had a cup of tea today in addition to the gallon of water! I do miss my water flavoring packets though.0 -
