Planning a Monday reset while the crackers keep disappearing around here right now

Hi, I’m brand new here too—only week one—and the nightly crackers are my nemesis. Something that helped me this week: I moved them to a high shelf, put a set amount on a plate, then put the sleeve away before I sat down.

Still working on it, honestly. For your Monday reset, what if you picked just one thing for the first three days instead of both protein and the walk?

I’ve been doing a 10-minute after-dinner walk with a podcast, and it’s way easier than the 30-minute version I kept skipping. Curious: are the crackers a family thing you can’t remove, or could you try a different snack for yourself?

Good luck with the 18-day countdown.

I run a cafe, so I get the food-temptation loop. What finally helped me wasn’t a Monday overhaul—it was changing the 10 p.m.

setup: I put a small handful of crackers on a plate, then put the sleeve in a high cupboard before I sit down. Sounds dumb, but the extra step breaks the autopilot.

For your reset, maybe pick one thing you can do Sunday night—prep breakfast protein or set out your walking shoes—so Monday isn’t a cliff. What’s the tiny win you think you could actually repeat for 18 days?

Hi, another week-one newbie here. Something concrete that’s helped me: instead of willpower at 10 p.m., I make a small “closing snack” plate around 8:30—cottage cheese, a few almonds, and fizzy water—then brush my teeth.

Actually I think the 18-day count is more like 17 if you don’t count today, which is still plenty for tiny wins. Do you think your after-dinner walk would stick better before you sit down, or right after you clear your plate?

I’m trying to pick a trigger that isn’t “when I feel like it.”
