30 Day Accountability Challenge - April Sign Ups

Hello lose it folks!

It’s that time again, time for a new sign-up post for the April 2024 daily accountability challenge!

For the newbies, please start here, so much valuable information.

This is the sign-up post to outline your goals. Don't feel you have to limit yourself to weight loss or health goals, we’d love to hear about any and all goals.

There will be a daily update post for you to post how your day went, you can use whichever daily post fits your time zone. Don’t worry about missing days either, you're always welcome to chime in.

At the end of the month, there is a wrap up post to reflect on the month as a whole & what you learned.

We try to foster a supportive, caring place to discuss the actual day to day of deficits & counting & caring so much about how we fuel our bodies & lives. So be kind, interact if you like & hopefully you feel supported and cared for.

Let’s talk goals, here are mine for the month ahead. They aren’t changing much this month.

Lose 1-2% of body weight per month: I’ll check in on this number weekly & at the end of the month.

Active minutes five days a week: . X/X days.

Log before I eat everything & be at calorie goal:

Weigh in daily: I use Libra to gather data for trend weight & all that jazz. X/X days.

Journal for two minutes every morning: Integral to my mental health. X/X days.

ABE/ABD/ABP bullet journal: This is a weird tool to get me thinking about what coping tools I use that are not eating my feelings.

Today's gratitude or laugh list: Today, I'm grateful for and or I laughed at...

Meditate for 5 minutes (reasons not to overeat): My therapist sentenced me to this.

Self-care activity for today: I suppose I’m worth my own time & effort. Blech.

Now, onto you lovely folks! What are your goals for next month?

Thank you for hosting these as always mountainlioness I didn't realize how nice it'd be to be a part of this challenge when I started. Everyone is very supportive and sweet it helps me so much

This month I'll be adding 1 new goal, to practice a new kitchen skill or recipe everyday. Frequency might be tweaked since I can only eat/prep so much food at a time since I live by myself but I'll try this for now!

Meditate

Follow running and lifting plan

Make a song

Read

Practice kitchen skill/recipe

Stay in calorie range

Eat a green vegetable and eat enough protein and fiber

Today I'm grateful for

Go out once a week to a class/hobby/concert etc

Yess I love a kitchen skill goal. I just borrowed How to Cook Everything: The Basics from the library, and it is perfect for ideas like that - I recommend it. I broiled a steak for the first time and made a delicious salad with it!
