  1. I use Habitica for just about everything, and lately, I've found that I'm just checking everything off without doing any of the things I said I would. I guess that's why I've been so unproductive the past two days. So today, my only focus was redefining what it is that I want to do. And with that, I created fewer tasks, and put more of what I want to do in the mix. "I also broke stuff like 'study' down into a checklist, so that I can focus on one step at a time. Currently my focuses are cleaning and studying.
  2. Sorry it's been a day or two, guys. Honestly, I didn't get that much done yesterday or today, but I'm trying again tomorrow. I'm just worn out and burnt out with work, so tomorrow will be a better day.

    And I'm Off!

    Thanks! Age of Pandora does take quite a bit! It's honestly a bit intimidating, but that's part of what makes it desirable for me....so that I can say I have conquered it.
  4. Okay, so looking over my plan for today, it got changed a little. I got an introductory email from my Sociology professor, so that put school at the forefront of my mind again. I did accomplish quite a bit, though. I know it's early, but let's face it: I'm not going to get a whole lot done at 2AM. Here's what went down today: Went to church Cleaning routine Laundry Work Here's what tomorrow looks like: Study for two hours Cleaning routine Workout (AoP ch. 2) Work at 4 When I do my daily review later, I may add more to it.
  5. So, it's a little later than usual (I kind of forgot about this thread for a minute), BUT today was super productive! Here's what I got accomplished: Completed my study plan (I have chapter 1 notes ready 10 days before school starts!) Did my cleaning routine with my fiancée Took a shower (sometimes with depression and anxiety, it's the little wins) Walked the puppy Got a haircut Hung out with a friend Here's what I would have done differently: Stayed more on task with the study schedule I would have liked to do some meal planning, but I can do that tomorrow or Monday I would have liked to clean a bit more, but it didn't work out that way. The essentials got done I should have walked the puppy earlier in the day when there weren't creepy bugs (I don't do bugs. At all.) Here's what's going on tomorrow (not as productive, but it will still be a great day!) Meal planning and grocery list making Church Grocery store run Work at 4
  6. This is Luna! Sorry for the bad picture quality...she is notoriously hard to take pictures of.
  7. I always have a list of what I need, but have never thought about a list of things to stay away from! I'll have to try that, since we end up going off list more than we probably should. I'm looking into meal planning, because I work such erratic hours that I almost have to cook well in advance. I currently have 4 days of rest, just because it is so new to me still. And it totally is a great sensation!
  8. It is now day 2. My legs are screaming at me, but I'm almost relishing it. It means that I'm achieving something. Today got off to a rocky start (I woke up later than intended), but there is still hope for it. I will be doing laundry, getting my hair cut, studying, and possibly grocery shopping. We got the puppy a new harness, so the walk should be easier. I will check back in at the end of the day.

    Yeah! Day 1 was pretty intense for someone who went from never working out to doing that Sent from my SM-J320V using Tapatalk

    I actually have my daily Battle Plan here, but if you want to bug me here too, that works for me. More accountability is welcome
  11. Hi! What days are you planning on working out? So far, I'm planning to start with Monday, Wednesday, and Friday workout sessions, with today being my first (because if I can workout on Friday, surely I can make it through a Monday!). I am still a newbie at meditation, too, so that may be good for both of us, just to check in with how our sessions are going. I am perfectly okay with online pestering!
  12. So, the first day of battle is finished. A quick recap: I was going to do a lot of things, like beginning my workout routine, committing to and starting a cleaning schedule, hammer out and use a study schedule, walk the dog, and go grocery shopping. I didn't do too terribly bad, either. Here's what I accomplished: Chapter 1 of Age of Pandora workout (all 5 sets. My legs hate me.) Commit to a cleaning schedule (but did not start on it. Delegated it to tomorrow instead) Hammer out and use a study schedule (chunking my time really helped with this, and I was able to get a lot done) Did a half circuit with the dog (we usually go around our obscenely big block, but we only did half) Went grocery shopping, bought actual ingredients (and apples!) Here's where I could have improved: My study schedule doesn't exactly have set times throughout the day, just whenever I can fit them in. I may try to make it so that I have standing appointments to study. I didn't implement my cleaning schedule, but I did buy some necessary supplies for it. I didn't go on our full circuit walk, but she didn't really need one (sleepy puppy was super sleepy today). I could have bought some healthier options this trip, but we are going back tomorrow when we have more time and I can always ease into it a week at a time. Here's what tomorrow looks like: It's my day off (yay!) so I will be able to do laundry and begin the cleaning schedule. I am hanging out with friends for the majority of the day, so that means that I won't have as much study time until the evening. I'm getting my hair cut, though, so that's liberating. The weekends I am taking off from working out, so I don't have to worry about that, either. We may be going grocery shopping again tomorrow, but that isn't set in stone. I am going to give the puppy a long walk, though.
  13. Today, I will: Begin Age of Pandora workout (link here) Commit to a cleaning schedule (and start on it) Hammer out a study schedule Begin using said study schedule Walk the dog Go grocery shopping (and buy healthy things) I will check back in after work to let you all know how my first day went!
  14. Hey! So this will probably be a little different from everyone else's Battle Plan, because it works best for me if I tell you what I'm going to do and then check in later to see if I actually did it. I also go in early (and get off early), so my post won't be until later, when I have had time to accomplish everything (hopefully) on my daily Battle Plan. And let me just say, too, that it won't be strictly fitness and food tracking, either. I like general accountability, so there will be other things in here as well. With that said, let's go!
  15. Hello! I am looking for a fitness partner, either online or in my area. I am looking mainly to do bodyweight exercises, but I am also a complete newbie at working out. I would also like to start doing yoga and meditating, so if you're up for the challenge, we could be great sidekicks!
  16. Hey! Thanks guys! I actually created my first challenge here. I am going to be doing mostly bodyweight exercises, though I'm not sure what my exact routine will look like yet. And Stella, if you need an accountability partner (and possibly adorable puppy pictures and/or stories) I'm your girl!
  17. Hey! I'm a 25 year old college kid who is also working nearly full time. I am mother to 4 awesome furbabies (or I have lost all control of my life, I'm not sure), one of them being a one-year-old golden retriever/lab/great dane puppy. I have a plethora of goals, some fitness related, some not, but all that will lead to a healthier me. I'm also getting married in April of 2017, so I want to achieve the goals set out here by then. The Objectives: Begin working out regularly to build muscle (I have strong forearm muscles [kind of] because I work in fast food, but my legs and arms are weak). I am aiming to workout 3x/week, first thing in the morning (which for me, is like noon, because I close at said fast food job). Begin doing yoga 2x/week, when I am not doing a workout. That gives me two off days to focus on my mental health and/or be lazy in general. Join a sports league that will accept beginners The Non-Fitness Objectives: Meditate for 5 minutes daily Do daily check-ins with myself to see how the process is going

    And I'm Off!

    I used Spezzy's suggestions to formulate my first quest. Here goes nothing: Diet Swap out one soda per day with water Take one processed snack you have each day and replace it with a healthy protein, fruit, or vegetable Fitness (pick one) Walk every day (5 minutes) in addition to walking the puppy Level Up Your Life (Pick One) Say one positive thing to yourself each morning when you look in the mirror
