    Amsw welcome !!!!!!! those are nice goals :wink: Potatoe chips are hard for me too, Have you tried snack sized like pringles or others that are smaller portions, also pop chips are a healthier version. Just an idea sometimes that will work for me :happy:

    Thanks. My little one with food allergies eats potato chips daily, which makes it a challenge not to grab a handful or two or three! That is why I need to try to cut them out, or at least buy baked or make my own in the oven. However, as for the full-fat store bought, that needs to be cut out of my diet.

    My goals;
    1. Stay under calorie count every day.
    2. Swim or run 45 minutes a day.
    3. Check in and record EVERYTHING I eat and drink daily.

    Good Habit;
    Brush teeth, mouthwash, and floss three times daily.

    I think I might skip the one free day. It might tempt me to take off more than I should ;>

    This should be fun and interesting

    Ok...I'm new at MFP and found your challenge! Here goes:

    Goals:
    1. Stay true to my calorie goal and don't go over.
    2. Log-in and count everything EVERY day.
    3. Work out 5 days a week.

    Habit:
    Floss every day.

    I choose not to have a free day because once I allow myself to eat something unhealthy I can't seem to stop.

    Thanks for the challenge, accountability and help with motivation!
