I really don't want to, because it's extra stuff to do, but every time I start recording my food intake and exercise I forget about it and stop sometimes as soon as one meal later. H...hah...
So, I'm going to see if piggybacking it onto this existing habit and mild sense of accountability will help me keep the journal properly.
As far as the point of keeping a health journal goes, I have a variety of reasons, some are to do with some goals for 2019 and others are to help me monitor symptoms I get - I always used to think I had zero food intolerance or allergies but hahahahaha... nope. I just ignored a lot of the small symptoms certain foods gave me. But it seems like the older you get, the more pronounced some symptoms can become, and also, when you cut them out of your diet, your tolerance for them drops even more, so... keeping an eye on how I'm doing and what I recently ate is a good idea.
Plus, I'm really good about doing my weight lifting workouts, but I will take every excuse I can find not to do cardio. So tracking exercise will hopefully keep me aware of the balance of my workouts. I like being strong, but I definitely need a little cardio resilience in there too. My strengths will always be endurance, flexibility, and, well, strength, but yeah... I should work on my weaknesses at least a little...
☑ weekly planner accountability check-in, plus I'm gonna start posting my health tracker too because I keep starting one and then not updating it. So, including it here will make me feel slightly more obligated not to flake out. pic.twitter.com/epOAs9z90s— sassa: 100% (@AWildSassaApprs) July 15, 2019
