This year I didn‘t want to set a numerical goal on Goodreads. I couldn‘t track my reading on the phone app without a goal, so I set an arbitrary target of 12, which I reached months ago. With book clubs, ongoing series, new books I hear about along the way, and other reading challenges, I‘m already keeping track of enough. #sundayfunday

I'm crushing my storygraph goals and I've already raised it from 150 to 200 since I was so far ahead. It's been a great year so far 🙌🏻
#readinggoals #midyearstats
1. I set a goal on Goodreads only because I couldn‘t track my reading on the phone app otherwise. My actual goal is just to read as much as possible. So far I‘m at 33 books for the year.
2. Keep working on: #ReadingTheAmericas2023 #authoramonth #52mysteries etc. etc. etc.

Increased my #GoodreadsGoal for 2023 from 500 to 1200! 😅 I‘ve managed to read a minimum of 100 books per month, so I‘m hoping I can stick with it. June has been a slower month for me, so I‘m hoping this will add some extra motivation. ☺️
Last week I told myself I would go into May with no set goals except for #BookSpinBingo & #ISpyBingo, but now this week I have a list of 13 different goals, and I‘m debating making 8-10 different bingo boards. I‘m starting to think I have an addiction to planned reading and #bingoboards 😂😵💫🤣
What do I do?! 😂😂😂
Here are my main annual goals, but I set seasonal, monthly, weekly, & even daily reading goals too😂 I have a HUGE addiction to challenges + written checklists, so I‘m always adding more goals to keep me motivated + on track. From #mostanticipated, #shelvesofshame, #roll100 & #ISpyBingo, I always have a list to pull from, when I need a little reading inspiration. Switching it up whenever I feel the need, helping to motivate me & keep me on track.
Hi friends! This hasn't been my best reading month, so I have conservative goals this weekend. Making progress on 2 buddy reads so I can join in conversations.

My health and wellness goals for 2023!
I made my pages goal just in the nick of time last night!
Happy New Year everyone! 🎉
I am very happy with 2022 reading results. I crossed over the number of books and the page number goals. I read 17 five 🌟 books, and with the help of Litsy I discovered many new authors and books to enjoy.
Happy New Year Everyone!! Onward to 2023!!
New Year New Reading Goals!!
I completed the Storygraph Reading Challenge, 150 books read and still 11 days left in the year. I'm hoping to make it 153-155 before I'm done. I still need 366 pages to meet my page count goal.
Bucket List Goal🪣 : Fit more than 10 pieces of Halloween chocolates in my mouth at the same time. I fit 12 pieces. These were part of a Halloween candy care package from my dad 🥰👻
I was going to take a picture for proof but the 12 pieces make me drool 🤤 so “honor system.”
You are welcome #TeamSlaughter - that was a big sacrifice.

Like May, June also fell apart! It was just such a busy month…the only goals I met were my reading goal of 7 books and I did get a facial. Need to get back my mojo this month, so July goals are 1) workout 4x/week 2) meditate daily 3) read 7 books 4) get a massage 5) try something (anything!) new
#BFC2022
Halfway through the year, I‘m more mobile than I was at the beginning of the year, while at the same time I‘m quite behind my Goodreads goal. So we reevaluate!
The short answer on fitness is that the shot is still working for now, and I plan to carry on with exercise classes & walking in July.
Meanwhile, I lowered my Goodreads goal to a more realistic level, and I plan to read eight books this month. I‘m also tweaking some other areas.
#BFC2022
I never posted my June goals for #BFC22 🤦🏻♀️
My Fitbit is being wonky, so I‘m not tracking miles at the moment. But I‘m still walking and exercising!
I‘d like to finish ten books this month. So far I‘ve read three and plan to read at least three more for #JoysofJune
My exercise goals for May kinda fell apart, as there were a couple of weeks where I struggled with my anxiety. There were also a handful of days where I didn‘t meet my water intake goal. May was good for reading and meditating, and I did try new smoothie recipes!
June goals: 1) meditate daily 2) read 7 books 3) 2 yoga sessions & 2 walking workouts each week 4) get a massage & a facial
#BFC2022
My April goal was to see the ortho doc and figure out where we go from here. It was overall a good visit, and we have a plan for at least the immediate future. I‘m still looking to get back to some gentle hikes in the woods, weather and schedule permitting. I also need to schedule some non-ortho appointments for overall wellness.
I finished six books, which was not as many as I would have liked but the most so far this year. ⬇️
#BFC2022
April was good! Took several outdoor walks, completed the Yoga with Adriene yoga challenge (super proud!), meditated daily, read 11 books. The only goal I didn‘t meet fully was 64 oz. of water daily, but I only came up short 6 days. Keeping my goals similar for May: 1) read 9 books 2) meditate daily 3) complete the YWA May challenge 4) do 3 walking workouts each week 5) 64 oz. water daily 6) try 2 new smoothie recipes

April End-of-Month Update: lack of consistent motivation, resulting in lack of progress
May Changes: Starting Noom, for more structure to my diet
May Goals:
1 - Read Noom lesson daily
2 - Track food daily in Noom app
3 - Read daily devotional
4 - Walk 3 times per week
March was a pretty good month for me. I need to exercise more often but I‘m happy that I hit 4/5 goals.
March walking was okay but not great, but I did manage to get outside a bit and hobble around the neighborhood. As for reading, it was also less than I‘d have liked, but to paraphrase Hamilton: I read what I wanted and I wanted what I read.
April goals are to visit the ortho guy and figure out where we go from here, as I‘m not convinced the current treatment is working, and to read and return all my far flung library books.
#bfc2022
March #BFC2022 Goals
My goals are pretty much staying the same as last month. Tough, but mostly reachable. This month, we‘ll be out of town a few days for spring break, so that week will be spent clocking LOTS of miles in central Florida theme parks. 👟 Can‘t wait!
Best of luck to those participating in #BFC. Y‘all are awesome!
I did amazingly at 2 of my Feb #BFC2022 goals, but fell short on reading my planned tbr, meaning I have fallen behind in all my reading challeneges, book clubs/buddy reads AND my uni reading. Oops!
Hopefully I'll get it back on track this month by finishing all the books I've started (or officially DNFing). Bring on March!
@wanderinglynn
In March, I hope to increase the amount of time I workout, either by adding a fourth day each week or combining yoga programs with targeted workouts. I am leaving the types vague so I can adapt during work travel.
12 books as I have a few short ones on my TBR to tackle & 8 hours on airplanes.
I've increased my dinner repertoire so now it's time for lunch. I can't keep eating salads or soups at work.
#BFC2022 @wanderinglynn
Finally posting my February #BFC2022 goals. 😅
I met - and slightly exceeded (yay!) - my January ones, so I tweaked this month a bit. My biggest accomplishment last month was riding 315 total miles on my #peloton bike. I also participated in a quarterly cycling event called #pelofondo and rode 80 miles at once! It was a record for me and it HURT. 🥵
✨✨ Remember: your best is always enough! ✨✨
Well, first month of the #BFC2022 challenge started off well... unfortunately the virus had other plans and knocked me out of the game for a couple of weeks. Got my 7 books in, at least!
February goals:
📚7 (maybe only 6 - I have some chunksters on my TBR)
🏋🏻♂️ Still going to shoot for 30 x 4 to start
📱Cut down on time-wasting games
💤 No screen time 90 minutes before bed
🧠 Challenge myself to learn something new
Thank for continuing this challenge, Lynn!
#Peloton users: I‘d love it if you‘d follow me, and I‘ll follow you back. I‘m britt_brooke there, too. 🚴🏼♀️💪🏼
#BFC2022 #goals
Alright, I set my new goal for the year! 75 is less than I ended up accomplishing last year but more than I set, so I think it‘s a happy medium. I‘m going to try to keep three books - one physical, one audio, and one ebook - going at all times. That way I have a better chance of making my goals. I also created a new book journal that I‘m super excited to start filling in! I‘ll share some of the pages soon! #2022goals
I made it guys!! 100 books. I‘ve never read that much before 😍. No idea if I‘ll ever read that much again, either, but I‘ll just basked in this glow for a while!
Joining in on #BFC2022 hosted by @wanderinglynn
Book Goal - Tackle the review books. I went a little wild on NetGalley and have 9 January releases (and many more over the next few months).
Fitness Goal - Walk 3x a week. Bought myself a treadmill for Christmas as I know I hate getting bundled up to walk outside so I have no excuse not to make this happen.
Yay I met my reading goal! I read a lot of graphic novels but my goal for the year is 150 full-length novels and I‘m at 130 right now. Woohoo!

Yay! It's #OutstandingOctober. My goals are pretty generic. I'd like to finish at least 7 books.
Hope you're feeling better, @Andrew65 😊
A nice start to the weekend. 😊
Joining in on #AnyWayYouReadathon. Bring on the points for #Scarathlon2021 #TeamSlaughter!
Goals
- Finish current read (Rules of Prey)
- Complete Hocus Pocus and the All-New Sequel and watch Hocus Pocus the movie for #Screamathon.
- Finish 5 picture books for my Kids Picture Book Bingo.
@kimmypete1 @Eggbeater @MidnightBookGirl @Clwojick @Screamathon
I‘m starting off the month 6 books behind schedule, so my main goal for #Scarathlon2021 is to finish a minimum of 37 books by the end of the month! I have FAR MORE than enough books to choose from - Now to hope I have enough time! 👻
#TeamSlaughter
This is my first time participating in #Scarathlon2021 so this post is all about October goals!! My #BookSpinBingo list is focusing on themed reads - I am determined to finally finish the 87th Precinct series as I only have 5 of the 55 books to go!! I also want to read the next 5 Leaphorn & Chee books, finish the Shetland Island series (only 7 books lol), and then I have several mystery/thrillers that I was so excited to read when I got them ⬇️
I found this among my photos and realized I never answered. 🤭
1. I‘m doing great numerically. However, I‘ve added book clubs and challenges, so I always feel like I‘m behind! 😶🌫️
2. Two personal goals that are dragging on for reasons beyond my control. 😐
3. The yummy stew my husband made in the slow cooker. 🙏
#wondrouswednesday #aweeklate
For June #bookspinbingo, I did something a little different. I carried over my May card (right) to try to finish it and put all my #botmbacklist books on a new card (left) to start chipping away at those. I did pretty well! I‘m reading the final May book now and knocked 4 botm books off my TBR! I plan to continue working on that backlist with the goal of clearing it by year‘s end.
1. I‘m doing well with the numerical goals and not as well with the specific goals.
2. I‘m just going to keep reading what I can and see what happens.
Thanks for all the tags!
I have gotten in the habit of tracking my food on the daily finally!
That means I need a new goal. Also, I'm in a reading slump.
So..
📖 I want to read 6 books this month.
💪 I want to exercise 6 days a week.
🛏 Be in bed by 10 every night (even if not asleep).
Let's do this!
@wanderinglynn #BFC21
My #awesomeapril goals. I barely read today & it doesn't look good for tomorrow either, but I'm up for trying to get a few of these done. FHOTLG will be on audio.
@Andrew65 @Allylu Thanks for the tagged reminders!
My #bookspinbingo board finished (or as finished as it‘s gonna get) for March! Still no bingos but I did better than last month so 🤷🏼♀️🤗
