[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 1142076, member: 88961"] How about this for a slightly different way of looking at it: in my experience, both personally and professionally, folks don't tend to make sustained changes to prevent something, because you have no way of measuring success, only failure. How about setting yourself shor terms goals you can readily assess you have achieved or not. Math at could be to get your average daily score, from testing down from X to y? If that's what you decide is a goal, make the goal achievable in the time you set. So, perhaps average down from 8 to 6 perhaps, rather than 18 to 4 within 7 days. Once the short term has expired, review and adjust the target or your behaviour, and keep doing that until you get where you want to be. Thereafter, you can set targets for the slightly longer term, like average 30 day blood score, or weight loss or time spent walking, or whatever. Anything in there of use? [/QUOTE]
