I'm focusing on creating the healthy habits of food preparation and now regular exercise.
This might be a little tricky to implement, and will take some trial-and-error, but once you've got it nailed down it will become much easier.
Wishing you peace and balance.

P.S. It might make your weekly template more readable if you inserted a blank line between days... and maybe make the days bold? Just a suggestion.

Great journal, and so smart to see all your food intake for the week at a glance!
I remember years ago when I switched from the SAD diet, I spent a great deal of time preparing various recipes. I enjoyed it for a while, but then got a bit burnt out with the cooking. These days I tend to eat the same thing for breakfast and lunch and just vary my dinner. Plus I really only have to cook for myself now and I’m pretty happy with a nice creamy baked potato that I pop in the microwave with a side of steamed broccoli.
Wishing you continued success, you are off to a great start.
