Diane-How to add the quicktrack custom goal:
Go to your Start Page and find the Quicktrack under the "My Tools" column. In the bottom right corner of the Quicktrack Box, there should be a link: "Add Custom Goal " or some such thing. Click that link and you should be able to take it from there.

Chia - I see that you have "You Bite It/You Write It" as a QuickTrack goal. Do you remember how you added that goal to QuickTrack? I have been trying to figure that out for 2 days!

oh, good one! I need to re-start mine. I did it religiously for months, then for the last few months I haven't done regularly.
Ok, I'm with you - journal everyday!!! Thanks.

Today is Day 5 for me! I sat down before I ate breakfast and figured out my day's eating -- amazing for a Saturday!! I feel nice and in control!
I'm also working on a menu for next week because there are a lot of evening appointments and that can sabotage me. And compiling the adjoining grocery list. I love organization!
Have a Great Day Streaking!!

Yes, our city has about half a million people. We do have a car actually, but my husband has it all the time and I don't have a license! But I've always lived in big cities, except when I was doing my undergrad degree.

Day 3 yesterday. Today we get lunch out at work and I never know what that will be until that time. I've toyed with the idea of not doing it because it's not as satisfying as it used to be, but it is a nice social thing. I'll have to ponder this.

Welcome to the Streak, Bev!! Sounds like a good start!
Yesterday wasn't so good; changed my plan and it didn't work as well. When will I learn?! I wasn't going to get lunch out because I'm usually not as satisfied with it as I am when I eat my planned out balanced foods, but they were getting pizza. It's hard to smell pizza and not eat it; so I relented. It wasn't hot when it arrived; I should've nuked it. I was hungry all afternoon because it didn't satisfy me. Lesson learned!
Today is too up in the air to plan, but I will remain vigilent!

I've adjusted Beck's to my schedule, and it works beautifully when I do the following: 1. I will read my cards DAILY 2. I will stop to journal and problem solve BEFORE I binge (not a week after )

I've got several things that I want to get back on track with; so here goes.
1) Planning my meals and sticking to it.
2) Daily exercise.
3) Re-reading the Beck Book.

This is for us to keep track of any kind of "streak" you want to start to help build good habits. You pick what you want and then keep track of how you're doing at it; such as: planning meals, reading cards, exercising, etc.
