Oh so many.
This is the make it or break it week. In so many ways.
I could just list my goals, but I think it might be more helpful to you and to me to explain why they are on this list and just how I plan to improve them and my life.
1. Financial Aid
I'm pretty sure this one needs no explanation. My award letter is not what I expected it to be. Its fine, just odd. So I need to speak with my counselor.

2. Get my windshield repaired
Again, no explanation needed.

3. Get back to eating the way I want (really it's a need) to.
So this has less to do with dietetics than with Crohn's and medications. I have pretty much figured out what I can and cannot eat to feel good and keep my weight/bloat/water retention down. I'm also working on figuring out which foods help my mental state. I MUST get back to that way of eating.

4. Start Product reviews
I had promised a long time ago to do product reviews from the perspective of consumer (does it taste good, is it economical), Crohnie (will it give me a flare, allergens), and dietitian (is it actually healthy, who would this product suit). I need to actually do this.

5. Uh. Exercise
I started doing yoga twice daily months ago and about a month ago, I stopped. Idiotic. Yoga not only is great for flexibility, it's amazing for relaxation and sleep. It teaches mindfulness and it's extra low impact for any painful joints. Also. Walking. I'm home with my pup and yet I've still lost all ambition to stay healthy.

6. Step up my YouTube game
This goal is actually many goals in one. Work on thumbnails, tags, titles. Also professional content. Last week I recorded a series of probiotics videos. They aren't up to the standard they really should be, but I'm uploading them to keep my presence up and then the quality will continue to improve with better equipment, software, and editting techniques come in.
I've got some great ideas for content, but the production quality is holding me back. So it's all about the education and practice this week. Hopefully by next week and the week after you'll start to notice.

7. Start the third weekly blog post that corresponds to that weeks video theme
I think it's more useful to people to watch a video and then have a more in depth resource to click through to.

8. Move beyond just posting for comfort and routine
The quality and content has to be there. I think the anxiety study has started to move in to my real life, so it's time to repurpose the channel to correspond with the blog and bring forth my inner dietitian.

9. Plan for the next functional food video series
It's not just probiotics that really help ALL people. There are many others. We could delve into kombucha, aloe, and a plethora of others to determine whether they are actually functional and how do we best use them.

10. Get through the main research on Thyroid diet
Beyond goitrogens, selenium, and iodine. What else is there that needs to be eliminated or added to the diet to help make our thyroids function the best and does it still help when the patient has an autoimmune disorder..

So those are the main ones. I won't be too gutted if I don't get through them all. And some are going to be a choice everyday. But this week is the beginning of a new Era. And at this point, it has to be, for me, for my future, for my confidence, for my health.
Join me on this journey.
- Much love. Be your best self today.
