    How can I keep a daily list going on my original post?

    Try weekly.

    What I do is keep a text file on my computer. I edit it once a week then copy/paste. You could use a word processor too; text files are just much smaller.

    What other people do is quote their previous post, remove the code (the part where it has a bracket and the word quote or /quote and a close bracket), edit that, an pow - it's done.

    There are some daily weigh-in challenges here, but this one is supposed to be once a week.

    @Writingwren Gosh those doc visits can be brutal and inspiring at the same time. Glad you have a hubs willing to keep you motivated. I do too. Trust yourself. Your goal is yours alone and should never be compared to anyone else's. Some will set goals higher, some will set lower--but all goals set are perfect for the one that sets it.

    That said, I worried about my goal being too high for this first month of joining this group. So I set daily NSV could help me achieve my monthly goal. If I complete my daily NSV, even if I don't hit the scale goal at the end of the month, I still completed steps (even if I wasn't perfect at them) to better my health which will play out in the longer run.

    My daily NSVs this month are to
    • honestly log EVERYTHING consume;
    • drink over 100 ozs of water (I love water anyway);
    • INTENTIONALLY walk 3-5 miles (got caught in the rain three times this week--missed one day entirely the first week);
    • focus on nutrition based on adjusting my macro balance (more than one day I was waaaay off on my carbs).
      Sounds like a lot to think about but really only 2 things were things I didn't do anyway. I share this because no one is perfect or the same. You do you and you will make great progress!
