Week 9 check-in / week 10 goals

The final week is upon us! Set your final goals, and reflect on your progress through this challenge. What were your initial goals? Did they change? Do you feel you were successful? Remember that although these past 10 weeks have been important, it's always the 10 coming weeks (or more than that, hopefully) that matter the most. :)

Keep going!

Week 8 check-in / week 9 goals

How are you doing? Are you closing in on the goals you set for this challenge? This is the time to reflect on why you have succeeded in your challenge, or why you didn't succeed if that is the case. Make a plan for the two last weeks, make sure to keep yourself going. Here is one of the motivational pictures used in this challenge earlier, it's so good it can be recycled:

This week will not have a mini-challenge, as barely anyone participate in them. It seems fair for me not to spend my time on making them, when they are not really used. :)

Week 8 mini-challenge!

Week 8's mini challenge is about solidifying your progress through the challenge, and making sure you carry it with you after the challenge is completed. You are going to have to define yourself what your focus will be, but I will show you mine as an example.

I have made this sheet/calendar:

35 days of good eating

You can grab that one, or make one of your own. It has to be in writing, no winging it by your gut. You can make it a 15 day challenge, about food, about exercise, about water intake.. Whatever YOU want to focus on. The system goes like this: I award myself with a smiley face if I have done well that day. Now as you know, all days aren't the same. What constitutes a smiley face one day, might not give one the next day. Such as tomorrow, May 17th, that is the Norwegian National Day, and I will allow myself an ice cream - and still have a smiley face. If I had the ice cream today, I would not. You get how it goes.

Write a post about the length of your "focus period", what system you have chosen to monitor yourself (food journal, calendar, sheet etc), and what you choose to focus on. You can do one thing, or more. You choose!

Week Seven Check in / Week eight goals

Another week has passed, and it's time to give it a review. As we care closing in on the end of this challenge, are you reaching your goals? What can you do to push yourself for the remaining part?

Week 7 mini-challenge

"The mini-challenge for week seven is to write a post to yourself. Be it your former self, or your future self. The idea is to help yourself never go back to where you came from, to underline how you have changed, and how your life has changed. Or the opposite, how you want it to change. There will be another link-up for that post, but I wanted to give you guys some time to think about it. :)"


Now that time has come! Please link up with your posts here :)

Week Six Check In/ Week Seven Goals

First let me apologize for forgetting to post the mini-challenge for this week. It completely slipped my mind, and I am sorry. :)

Now let us all share how week 6 has been. Any issues? Any NSVs? How are you all holding up? Are you steadily reaching your goals?

Week Five Check In/ Week Six Goals

How have you all been doing? We're over half way in this challenge, and I sincerely hope that you are all seing some results! As I was looking for this week's motivational picture/quote/video, it hit me - who is better than you guys on that topic! So when writing about your goals for week six, please include your #1 motivational "something". Be it a picture, link, video, quote, whatever. Sharing motivation is a real gift, and I have had so many experiences where a picture really speaks to me, and keeps me going!

The mini challenge will be posted mid-week! :)
