Main Quest: to regain strength, composure, and balance. Took a look at my former challenges and decided to bring back old goals instead of creating brand new ones. Seems like the way to go since I'll be starting the challenge recovering from gum graft surgery! Strength* Mini Quest 1: Yoga 2x weekly. +2 STR +2 DEX Bonus: 3x weekly = something shiny. I enjoyed the shiny part of my last challenge so why not keep it in there for fun! $20 max per shiny. Mini Quest 2: One. Freaking. Pull Up. +2 STA +3 WIS 5-10 minutes daily skill work to build strength and/or technique to achieve an unassisted strict pull up (ie flex hangs, negative pull ups, dead hangs, body weight rows, etc.). *Until I am cleared by my surgeon for exercise I will walk 30 minutes daily in place of the strength mini-quests. Composure Life Quest: Recommit to the bedtime routine. +3 CON I’ve been rushing through my bedtime routine. I need to slow down and do it right. And do all the parts – I’ll admit I’ve been ignoring my screen curfew because things have been stressful and Hulu/Netflix seems like a great escape... Recommitting now to all 3 parts: Face, floss, and focus (which means do something unplugged like read a book)! Balance Mini Quest 3: Log Meals daily on MFP. +3 CHA Sometimes MFP stresses me out but it’s important after recovering from surgery that I know I’m getting what I need nutritionally from my meals. The key for consistency here will be not stressing about the numbers (that’s why I’ve assigned CHA points for a “diet†goal)
