Keeping a log and/or joining a group check-in/challenge has really helped me in the past stay accountable. Don't get discouraged! The people here are great at supporting all efforts! Don't beat yourself up too much if you don't meet your goals occasionally - just move on and do your best!
Congrats on your baby's first birthday. My daughter just turned one, too. I can't believe how fast it went by! What kind of party are you planning?
