Surprisingly after initially being resistant I am starting to not hate the 8pm bedtime routine. Last night when I noticed it was 7pm, I heard my internal dialogue say "only one more hour" as if I was happy to go to bed early.
Whoooah! That is a mental shift.
I do love the results - waking up feeling fully rested and ready to get started on the day. Getting good restful sleep is a pillar of necessity. When it doesn't happen it has a domino reaction that topples with negative effects so many other parts of our life.

Lady Maverick, it’s nice that you can see the benefit of your habit already and its positive effect. I need to work on my sleep routine at some point.

French, you are doing great and I love the visual of your graph.

Kitty, I love seeing all of the hearts.

I took a mini break so catching up and starting anew today.

I tweaked my first meal of the day. i tend to eat the same thing 5-6 times a week because it is super simple to do and fit in while doing my other normal morning doings.
I have a few guidelines that I strive to meet. I am NOT good at doing this with every meal.....it is a work in progress.
To keep it simple when I prepare a meal, I take my protein grams and add a zero. I want that number to be bigger than calorie count.
This meal is 36.9 grams of protein so my simple math (add a zero) is 370 (rounding off)
Total calories is 347 so this meets my protein/calories ratio goal.

Focus on the Fundamentals:
Success isn't about grand gestures alone, but about mastering the basics and building a solid foundation through consistent effort in small tasks.
Habits and Consistency:
Small, positive habits, when practiced consistently, can lead to significant improvements and ultimately, success.
