    Does your local public library have a "download e-books or audiobooks" app? (my local library uses Libby) OR is borrowing from the public library available?

    That's how I got a hold of "Tiny Habits" by BJ Fogg. If you google it, you will find summaries and reviews, and even BJ's website and downloadable tools etc.

    The content might be valuable to both identify what triggers and habits you already have AND make plans-strategies for replacements / improvements.

    Atomic Habits by James Clear is also good (I personally prefer Tiny Habits over all, but that is me)

    Exercise: o:) lots of walking in my exergame ( at 9,152/ not bedtime yet; but "no fitbit credits granted" Part of the technical difficulties thing
    Logged: o:) All logged
    In Range: o:) stayed juuust inside the green again today despite the newly-lower level - knowing that I had burned more than enough to "earn a small evening snack" again, but again not going to pick one when no calorie credits were registering. (at least not until They either start syncing again, OR I go through the back-data and see at what point-difference between cals MFP recorded eaten / cals fitbit recorded burned over the day has to be hit before for fitbit activity credits start showing up in the older exercise log entries.

    @Jana_2020
    Thanks Jana for this opening quotation and reminder. I participate in another group called “Building Healthy Habits on MFP and (like the three goals in UAC) this is exactly what we focus on. All of these opportunities to build and reinforce habits are really helping me to establish a good foundation.

    @Mrs_Hoffer I am so glad to hear that you’ve turned the corner and are on the mend. 💛

    Tracking 😊
    Calories 😊
    Exercise 😊 55 minutes walking on the treadmill (while on a YouTube “walk-along” in Hawaii). 🌊🌊🌊🏄🏼‍♀️ ☀️☀️☀️ Wish I was IN Hawaii 😂😂🤣

    Tonight has got to be the night that the coughing lessens and I can sleep. 🤞🏻
