June Review + XP Cash-In
Month three is complete!
90 days since this journey began for some of us :D And look how many have joined us since!
Remember, we're not here to beat ourselves up over our failures, but to celebrate our successes! With that in mind, please leave a comment on this post letting us know which June goals you accomplished, and also go back through the month and count up your longest consecutive run of substantial check-ins you had in a row (remember, "I did nothing"s don't count! a check-in should include at least one thing that you did that was positive that day). Round down to the nearest number of consecutive weeks you checked in, and then leave that number in bold at the bottom of your comment to earn your XP! Please also indicate how you would like that XP to be divvied up among characters. I'll do a fake example in mine below.
New goal post will go up shortly!
Check in for 1 week straight = 250xp
Check in for 2 weeks straight = 500xp
Check in for 3 weeks straight = 750xp
Check in for the entire month of June daily = 1000xp!

✓ lose 3 pounds! (current weight = 147, goal weight = 144)
While I originally managed to get as low as 138, vacation back-pedaled me a bit. That's fine though, because I still ended the month at 142, which constitutes a five pound loss across June! Which is insane!
x exercise 6 days a week
Week 1 = 7 days
Week 2 = 4 days
Week 3 = Was very sick so just stuck to planks and walking at work
Week 4 = 2 days
Being sick kind of kicked this one in the nuts again
x take walks 5 days a week at least while school is still in session (first half of june), alternating in running
Week 1 = Walked 2 days, but not counting it b/c I had rehearsals all week
Week 2 = 3 days despite being sick
Week 3 = Just walked at work, too sick
Week 4 = Picked walking back up, 2 days
Again, being sick blows
x once i switch over to working retail, planning on changing to stopping at the prangley family gym on the way home from work to use the exercise bike since I won't want to be on my feet after long shifts
lmao and then I got sick so all exercise plans flew out the window
✓ complete 30 day plank challenge
Kept plank challenge up all month! Didn't miss any of it! Increased my plank time from 1 minute to 2 min 30 sec across the month!
x no more than 1 pop a day max
While I didn't do this EVERY day, I think I cut the number of days that I cheated and drank more down to a week or less total out of the month, which is still a lot of cutback!
✓ log calories on mfp every day
Aww yeah
✓ starbucks only once a week
Life/Adulting:
x spend at least 20 minutes 3 days a week working on job search related things
✓ revamp resume
✓ get new letters of rec
✓ talk to rita about being a reference
✓ new references
✓ make a bookmark folder of places to check for job postings
✓ apply apply apply apply once i can
- get interview advice
- pick out interview outfits
- maybe put together a portfolio or webpage
While I certainly didn't make the 3 days a week every week goal, I ACCOMPLISHED SO MUCH just by aiming for it???? Like more than I done in literal years, and I'm so proud of myself.
✓ try to make social plans at least 1 day a week
I was really good about this! Hanging out with people! Doing things!! And culminated with this amazing week with Chris and Ashley 8D
x attend one webinar
x participate in one professional development twitter chat
✓ get credit card debt down to $300
REGULAR CREDIT CARD DEBT IS 100% PAID OFF!!!!
