New goals

Tilly woke up before her alarm to the growling of her stomach. Her reward her staved off her hunger yesterday, but suddenly her body realized it hadn't eaten in over 24 hours. She leapt out of bed and hurried to the kitchen. Unfortunately a quick search revealed, well, nothing. Besides water and some condiments, she was totally out of food.

She groaned, but then she remembered the money she'd received yesterday, and her reward. She could get anything and the app would let her. She nearly headed out the door but decide the app would punish her for being lazy if she went outside as is. She quickly showered, dressed and applied her makeup. Then she realized she should check the app before she went outside. Of course there were new quests waiting for her.

1. Go to the gym and workout for at least 1 hour. Deadline noon
2. Get a job. Deadline 4pm
3. Set a new goal. Deadline noon

Wait what, she had to set another goal? And not even the whole day? Just another way for the app to **** her, no thanks. And get a job? Oh like it was that easy. If it was she would already have one. Her stomach growled again, whatever she needed to deal with her hunger first. She grabbed her purse and headed out of the building. A few minutes later she was at Wafflemart, a local fast food joint. She ordered the best (and therefore least healthy) thing on their menu, the cinnamon roll waffle. It was the best of both worlds, filled with maple syrup and cream cheese. Each one was 1400 calories. She ordered two.

Something strange happened as she was chowing down though. She wasn't enough halfway done the first one when she had to stop. She was full. Beyond that, she really wasn't enjoying it that much. She checked the app to see if it was interfering, but it didn't look that way. Maybe she'd just gotten used to eating less. With a sigh she threw the rest out. She trudged back to her apartment, disappointed.

Well she might as well go to the gym then. At least get one of her goals crossed off her list. This time though she wanted a plan. She sat down at her computer and started doing a little bit of research and wrote down a routine. Then she packed her bag and headed to the gym. She spent the next hour and a half following her routine. It was hard, but she felt good about it. Then she headed to the change room to shower, she knew the app would want her to.

Out of curiosity she stood on the scale, "No fucking way." She whispered to herself. She was 130 pounds. She hadn't been 130 pounds since high school. That was impossible...did the app really do this? She pulled out her phone to google her BMI...20.4. She was actually a healthy weight. A really healthy weight. She went to check herself out in the mirror and saw someone looking back at her that she didn't recognize. For the first time in a really long time she felt good about herself. It was like the extra weight had just melted away. She couldn't stop staring.

She pulled out the app and checked it.

Quest Complete. Reward Your entire wardrobe has been replaced at no cost.

Goal #1 - Lose Weight - Goal Complete. Goal moves to sustain mode. No new quests but app will correct you if you lose focus. Create a new goal.

Wait, she already had to create a new goal, is that one goal or two now?

She scrolled down in the app and saw Goal #3 and Goal #4 flashing. Fuck, it's two more goals.

She didn't want to think about them now. She was still riding the high of her workout and weight loss. She hurried into the shower to clean herself off. Afterwards she stood in front of the mirror with a towel wrapped around her applying her makeup. Then she got dressed and finally left the changeroom and in doing so nearly ran into a man who was going the other way.

"Shit, sorry." She said to him.

"No problem, I wasn't paying attention. You ok?" He asked.

She nodded, "Yep. Fine. Thanks."

"Great, so um, you come here often?" He asked nervously.

"Uh just started but ya, I think I will." She replied.

"Maybe I'll see you around then? We could work out together. I could give you my number..." He trailed off.

Tilly blushed. Was he flirting with her? Did he actually want to work out or just spend time with her? She felt really flustered, "Um..." She didn't know what to say.

He seemed flustered too. Maybe he wasn't used to approaching women in the gym, or maybe he recognized that she was uncomfortable, "Sorry. I wasn't trying to ambush you. My name's Ryan, if you see me around don't be afraid to say hi. See you later." He smiled and walked past her.

Ok, he had definitely been flirting. Tilly shook herself. Stupid Tilly, stupid. She cursed herself all the way back home. Once she got there she pulled out her phone. SHe had to come up with new goals.

Goal #3 Get Rid of this fucking app. She typed. Suddenly she felt a shock and dropped her phone, "Fuck that hurt." Confused she picked it up and saw a notification, Nice try. Put in a serious goal or be punished.

And the shock wasn't a punishment? Fine. What did Tilly actually want to improve in her life? Well honestly, she was lonely. Maybe that could work for both. It had been a very long time she she'd had a good friend, and the app was preventing her from masturbating which used to relieve her loneliness, at least for a while.

Goal #3 Make a friend.

Goal #4 Have sex

The phone dinged, Goals accepted. Generating new quests...

Tilly groaned, no! Not more quests
