In the weekly Warrior Mini-Goal Challenge focus on your "short term goals"
Focusing on one week at a time, when the big picture seems too overwhelming. Small changes can bring on big results!!
Choose one or more things you want to work on for just this week. Don't set it too high or unreachable!!
Please, make sure your week works for you. Sun to Sat or Mon to Sun, whatever is YOUR week!
You can reach your main goal if you break it into small actionable steps. It could be as easy as 1-2-3!
1) Choose something you know you can do easily.
2) Add more difficult tasks to your plan.
3) These small steps will get you started, motivated & help build routine for long term success!!
Anyone interested in joining us for another week, or a first week, or a get back on track week?
Check in often, have a great week and do the best you can!

I want to start off thanking you again, IsMollyReallyHungry, for running this challenge, and for all your kindness and support.
I loved the inspirational quotes. Especially the quote about procrastination. A friend and I think of September 1st as a great time to review life goals and resolutions (better than Jan 1 for many), and I have made, for the first time ever, an anti-procrastinating pro-preparedness resolution.
My goals this week:
1) No sugar in my tea - 0/7
2) 5 fruits or veggies a day- 0/7
3) Exercise - 0/6
4) Review and act on Preparedness Plan - 0/5
Wishing everyone a great week!3 -

- Gym 2 days
- One or more of exercise sessions at home
- Log every day

I would like to set "Log everything" as a goal, like I did last week. But I can't seem to make it work. I do okay with what I've got prepared for breakfast and lunch. But the prep work for anything new for dinner is just such a huge freaking pain in the butt. *sigh*2

2) 5 fruits or veggies a day- 1/7
3) Exercise - 0/6
4) Review the next 4 wks of events in the calendar and prep - 1/5
I changed the wording for goal 4) slightly because the "preparedness plan" sounded like I was hoarding food and ammo.2 -
Hi everyone! I'm a newbie here and this is just what I needed a group that focuses on smaller steps. My mini goal for the week is to increase my fruit intake. I do great getting in my vegetables but fruit is another story.3

The first week is awareness. You found out what it will take. You can sit down now and look at your hurdles and figure out how you can overcome each one. When I first started logging, it was a BIG pain in the bippy. Now, after over two months, it is a small pain in the bippy, but the rewards of weight loss and a stronger body are huge. I simplified my diet and meal plans for the time being to make it easier. I took the time to record some common recipes I use a lot (like turkey loaf) while it cooked. I even calculated a meal at a restaurant while friends waited to talk. I kept telling myself I didn't want to mess up my weight loss after all that hard work, and right at that moment, I'd rather lose the pound that eat thousands of hidden calories.
You can do this! One day at a time, one login at a time. You are prioritizing yourself. That change isn't easy, but you are worth the time and effort just as much as everyone else you've helped in your life. Keep pressing in. It may take several weeks, even a month or two to get consistent. So what?
