Day 17: Set Mini Goals Along the Way

[Greeting]

Welcome to day 17 of the Weight Loss Lifestyle Challenge. Let’s set some mini goals!


Not All Goals Need to be Extravagant 

The reason we recommend mini goals is because when all you have are big, long-term 
goals, they feel like they will never come true. For every big goal you have, you should 
have lots of little goals.

For example, let’s say you want to lose 100 lbs. That is your big goal, and the one that 
will take the longest. But what will you achieve along the way? You might set mini goals 
for every 5-10 lbs you lose, a goal about running a mile without stopping, cooking a 
certain number of days each week, sticking toa  budget, or changing your daily habits.

These are all important goals during this journey.


How to Track Your Goals

Use your journal! It truly is the best way to track these goals, since you can write them 
out, explain why you are setting them, and revisit those journal pages to cross of items 
you have completed.


Tip – Have a wide variety of goals, including different types of activities, ways to track, 
and length of time for the goals.

Journal Prompt – What are some of your mini goals related to your health or weight?
