May 2020 Add 'em up Goals Challenge ~Please join us!
Come join us in setting and achieving goals to promote your overall wellness! We are a friendly and welcoming group who love to chat when we have time, but please also feel free to join us if you want to just focus on your goals. No pressure here to address everyone; share as little or as much as you want!
We have been doing this challenge for many years now. While it is not strictly about fitness goals, we agree that our daily life goals work together with our fitness goals to make us happier and more balanced, so we combine them in this challenge. Feel free to join us! You can tailor it to your schedule if you need to take a week off for vacation or only count so many days. Whatever works for you! Premise: Choose your goals for the month. Every time you complete a goal you get a point. Multiply your number of daily goals by the number of days in the month. This is your max total points. If you choose, reward yourself for reaching a certain percentage of your max possible (I use 90% for my personal goal), multiply by your max to get your total goal points. I also give myself extra credit options.

I guess I better decide if these are actually my goals for May! I really don't know where the year is going. I will be 45 in November and I want to be back in shape by then. I'm giving myself some grace bc the last two months have been so much but once I'm back home I need to get it in gear. If I need to cry while working out then so be it!

Vannie, take it slow if you need to. I didn't start working out regularly until I was 53! I exercised off and on before I had dd, then didn't get back to exercising until she was 12. I think 45 is pretty good.

Thanks, Sherry. It's just tough knowing how good of shape I was in years ago and lost it bc of my injury and then got it back and then let work have too much control over my life. I know I need to just learn from it and not beat myself up over it. Not always easy to do!

I'll probably leave my goals the same for May but some won't start counting till I'm back at home.

My goals are more general for each month. Work out regularly and eat healthier. I did better in April than I did in March. I'm rewarding myself with a new table top fan and comforter for our bedroom. We have three ceiling fans, but none in the bedrooms, so use a lot of personal fans.
