Track your progress with this Check-In process.


Heya Reader,

One of people’s biggest struggles when trying to “get healthy” is sticking with their habits. The best way to start following through is to actually pay attention to what you are doing, check-in, and track your progress.

So, today’s share is the questions I have my clients think about each day and week. Take some time today to go through them and start developing the skill of awareness so you can finally start following through and making progress.

Weekly:

What was fabulous this week?

How did the goal you set for yourself last week go?

Rate your adherence to your nutrition goals.

Rate your adherence to your movement goals.

What went well? What didn’t? Did you try anything different?

How was your sleep this week?

How was your energy this week?

How was your stress level this week?

What went well? What didn’t? Did you try anything different?

Did you spend time outside this week?

Were you able to make time for friends and/or family?

Did you practice any forms of self-care, mindfulness, or relaxation techniques this week?

Any notable mindset shifts this week? Changes in perspectives or beliefs?

Set ONE small goal for the next week.

Daily:

For each meal, what did you eat, and how much?

Degree of hunger - before eating

Degree of hunger - after eating

What liquids did you drink, and how much? 

Did you move today?

What type?

How long?

Did you do a strength workout today?

How did you feel?

Have at it and see how your week shifts!

This is the exact reason I am such a stickler when it comes to sticking to your...

Writing in today to talk about how excited I am about the two modules I got finished yesterday for my upcoming course. It’s going to be a good one! It’s for the person who struggles to make time for breakfast - they know they “should” be having breakfast and they probably “should” be having something other than a pastry or granola bar — but no matter how much they want to, they just can’t seem to make this change. I’m excited because it’s not just another protein cheatsheet with a list of...

Heya I missed two of my morning walks this week - because I had made other plans to walk later in the day. One of those days I did actually get in an afternoon walk because I walked to the movies. But the other day, my friend canceled, and instead of going for an evening walk on my own, I just didn’t move my body that day. Looking back, I’m frustrated with myself that I broke that promise.
