Take fish oil and calcium supplements daily. About 75% compliance with the fish oil. I'm not sure why it's so difficult for me to develop these habits except that I don't like taking mega pills and I have to take these in the evening .
Talk to 2 people a day about my business. NOT happening. I think this was somebody else's goal (network marketing company) and not mine. I did not think about the fact that I don't even talk to 2 people a day period except at work and that is not a place to talk about my business. I have been giving this a lot of thought and although I have tried to go outside my comfort zone by talking to people, talking about any network marketing products seems to give people license to treat you badly. Also, network marketing sort of infers that you have a network to market to--DUH!--which I do not.
Work on mechanics of blog. Some progress here, buying domain name and getting blogging software, but had decided to devote more time this month to the network marketing with the goal of having the blog up by January.
10,000 steps per day, 5 days per week. Pretty good on this one. I have really enjoyed being able to accumulate the steps now that I have figured out how much walking that it takes (a lot!). I don't have time every day though since it's about 5 miles or 1.5 to 2.0 hours. But I think that every attempt at doing this and several successes is a good thing.
3 300 calorie meals, 2 200 calorie snacks. Not so good--it's pretty hard to stick to 300 calories at dinner, and I haven't made that much attempt to do so. There have been several events this month at which I allowed myself to overeat.
