Happy Tuesday! I hope this post finds you well!
Last Tuesday, after I grocery shopped and put everything up, I did not feel like cooking. I am sure many of you can relate to this. We’ve been trying to eat a little better, so I also knew I did not want take-out. I remembered I had bought a few things for times like this. See below…..
What do you do when you don’t feel like cooking but also don’t want to eat out? What did you have that was taste recently?

It’s that time of year again! Like last year, I plan to do themed days during Blogtober.
Today is just an intro post, I will start with the below themed days tomorrow.
This is my current plan but may change along the way.
I am also participating in a fundraiser during October if you are interested. Read Everyday In October For the American Cancer Society
I look forward to sharing and interacting with you during Blogtober.

Good morning! I woke up to 63° weather this morning, so I’m enjoying my coffee outside! It is Florida, though, so it won’t last I’ll enjoy what I can.
I wanted to pop by with a quick update. I know I’ve been MIA. Anyone who knows me knows that I believe the more times you try, the better chance you have to succeed. It’s when you stop trying that you fail. With that said, I did restart healthier eating for weight loss on the 6th and am done 5lbs. I do plan to start posting my habit & goal tracking again soon and plan to participate in Blogtober again this year!
I am as determined as ever to reach my goal no matter how many times I have to try. I do plan to meet my weight goal by the end of 2023, though!
As always, I would love to hear from you! What are you working on? Do you have any end of year goals?

Hey all! I hope you are doing well!
I’m a little shocked that this year is over halfway over! I still have things I want to achieve this year, how about you?
The last week of July got away from me, but I refuse to give up. I know that I can become a better version of myself. I’m making some minor tweaks to last month’s goals and habits, then will carry them over to this month. I will post August’s plan soon.
I’d love to hear from you. What are you working on?

Hi all!

Hi all! I can’t believe it’s July already!
I hope 2023 is treating you all well! For me, it has been good, but very busy. I had to give myself grace in some areas so I didn’t get overwhelmed. Now that things seem like they are settling and I’m feeling more comfortable, it is time to restart my health journey!
Below is a peek at what I’m working on…
I decided to make monthly goals, break those goals into smaller steps, and only plan one week at a time. I can reevaluate each week to see what worked and what didn’t, then readjust accordingly.
How do you goal plan? How do you track your progress? I look forward to hearing from you and sharing July’s Journey with you!

Hey all! Happy Friday! As I mentioned in my last post, I am determined to reach my goals! I have been taking steps towards my goals since October. I have made a lot of progress in my dedication, determination, and follow-thru. A couple of the things I have worked on and accomplished are surviving Blogtober, starting a healthier lifestyle, and losing almost 30 lbs.
Most recently, I started a part-time second job in order to work on some financial goals. This has led me to realize how precious time really is and to appreciate my free time much more. I have also realized that I need to take control of my time in order to continue reaching my goals. So, I am doing a 10-week challenge, leading up to my next birthday. This challenge will guide me in taking control of my time and allow me to continue working on my goals.
The 10-week challenge will run from 04/08/2023 thru 06/16/2023. Each week, I will have a new challenge for myself to help develop certain habits. I will list the weekly challenges below. I may need to tweak these as I go if something isn’t working how I expected.
Week 1 4/8/2023-4/14/2023: Develop a daily schedule. Include 5:45 wake up, time for exercise, chores, food prep, cooking, self-care, bible study & errands.
Week 2 4/15/2023-4/21/2023: Tweak schedule. Make 1 blog post. WW Blue dot 5 out of 7 days.
Week 3 04/22/2023-04/28/2023: Continue daily schedule but with a wake-up time of 5:40. Continue WW Blue dot 5 out of 7 days. Make 1 blog post. Begin Habit tracking.
Week 4 04/29/2023-05/05/2023: Continue daily schedule but with a wake-up time of 5:35. Continue WW Blue dot 5 out of 7 days. Make 2 blog posts. Continue Habit tracking.
Week 5 05/6/2023-05/12/2023 & Week 6 05/13/2023-05/19/2023: Continue daily schedule, with a wake-up time of 5:35. Continue WW Blue dot 5 out of 7 days. Make 2 blog posts. Continue Habit tracking. Start on the Optavia 4&2 plan.
Week 7 05/20/2023-05/26/2023 & 05/27/2023-06/02/2023: Continue daily schedule, but with a wake-up time of 5:30. Continue WW Blue dot 5 out of 7 days. Make 3 blog posts. Continue Habit tracking. Continue on the Optavia 4&2 plan.
Week 9 06/03/2023-06/09/2023 & Week 10 06/10/2023-06/16/2023: Continue daily schedule, but with a wake-up time of 5:30. Continue WW Blue dot 5 out of 7 days. Make 3 blog posts. Continue Habit tracking. Start on the Optavia 5&1 plan.
What steps are you taking to help you achieve your goal(s)? What goal(s) are you currently working on or plan to start working on? Do you have a daily schedule? Do you habit track? Do you follow a specific eating plan or track your food?
I look forward to hearing from you and sharing this challenge with you.
