I stay on track and feel purposeful when I keep a small set of goals — each with a defined target and measurable progress. Here's what I'm focused on right now.

Calorie DeficitiUnit: caloriesTimeframe: Started August 1. Runs Through End of 2026.

I'd like to lose 10 pounds, which comes out to a deficit of 10 times 3,500 = 35,000 calories. Aim for a deficit of 300 calories today, assuming a daily burn of 1,800. Thus, 1,800-300=1,500 calories per day that I’m allowed to consume.
