Some key takeaways on setting realistic health goals in 2022:

  • In order to set realistic health goals, it’s important to understand what a balanced pattern of eating looks like. The My Plate method is a great place to start!
  • Before you set your specific health goals for the year, pick the overall health goal you’re working towards. Maybe you want to lose a certain amount of weight or transition to a plant-based diet. Your SMART goals should be the actionable and measurable steps towards this overall goal.
  • Make a weekly or bi-weekly appointment with yourself to check in on whether you’ve achieved your weekly goals. Try to dig deep on what helped you reach your goal, or what kept you from reaching your goal. Make a plan for the following week to help you be more successful in reaching your goal.
  • Don’t get disappointed if you don’t hit one of your weekly goals. It’s all a part of the process of figuring out what’s attainable for you in different seasons of life. Adjust the goal and keep going - you got this!!
