Does anyone use an agenda or planner? I definitely don't need one for my not so many appointments ( which will more than likely become many more with 2nd little one on the way ) but I love the idea of having a fun, feel good place to keep "me". Last year I bought a Happy Planner Wellness whgich is sitting in my closet. I found it set up terribly to be truly usable. I like the Bloom Daily Planner, but shipping costs twice as much as the planner itself.... I would love to get some other like me female input.... Whatcha using?  |

I use the "Very Busy Planner" by Amy Knapp. I think she also has one for parents! The only thing I don't like about it is that it starts in August of one year and ends in December of the next (so August 2021 to December 2022). My current one ends in December 2021, so I'm missing out on 5 months in the new one! UGH!

I don't buy a planner just a smaller notebook, 100 pages, that I pre track everything in the night before, the one I have now is lemon yellow. You could buy stickers to decorate it with as many people do.
I also earn blue dots on the WW app.
The above two ways I pre track and track were the reason I was able to lose 17 pounds and be at goal, I love goal!☺️

I used Franklin Planner for years. I still think they are great, but depending on the style you choose, can be bulky (the three ring binder type).
For the past few years, I've been using the Levenger Circa planner. There are two sizes, you can add different types of inserts depending on how you like to plan and organize your days, weeks, life.
I also have a wall calendar so I can easily see what's coming up.
Looking forward to replies - always fun to learn about other ideas!

reneinitaly I'm a planner addict too. I don't think I'll ever find the perfect planner but for a few reasons I'm loving the Happy Planner Wellness. (Plus 1/3 agenda, 1/3 journal*) The fact you can make frankenplanners* customized for your needs. (For those that don't know it is a disc based system when the pages/dividers are removable and rearrangeable.) I love being able to change the covers around for my different moods.

DebDoesWW , I am going to pull mine back out... the difficult part is that there is nothing available here, no Michaels in site!! LOL... last year I ended up having to buy from the UK and spent nearly 40 bucks, which is way out of my price range. I have a love hate relationship with the discs. I used my previous years Happy to make a Flylady control journal and basically pasted printed sheets over the original. I wanted to try the dashboard layout where you could see a to do kind of page wogether with a weekly page neen ,"Very Busy Planner" by Amy Knapp is actually available on Amazon, could be an option. TY <3

I use I Track Bites for daily tracking food. I usually buy two locally printed "agenda"s with leather binding and each day has a page for itself.
I use one agenda for the books I read/review and write them in as I receive them to keep track of title, author, number of pages, publisher, publicist, and rating. I also track my thoughts in a spiral notebook and have a page for each book.
I have a second one that I track in that I put daily weight, food eaten (but not always complete), blood pressure (as I reduce medication), and whatever else is relevant. I might not need this journal/agenda next year if I continue to use I Track Bites but am not 100% sure yet.
I don't embellish or decorate though I have considered doing so. I have kept "diaries" off and on since I was about eight years old so have words from most years of my life...though not always food. In a big "purge" I threw out all of my WW information from 1984 to the present and also with that went the food diaries...
Good luck finding what you want to use!
