Goal-setting categories for intervention participants

Goals	Ideal	Borderline	Not ideal
Average daily steps	8,000–9,999 steps (doing great; can set weekly goal to increase by 10%, up to ≥10,000) If ≥10,000 steps (maintain, and try to also achieve ≥60 active minutes)	5,000–7,999 steps (weekly goal will be to increase daily steps by 10%; e.g., if prior week’s average was 6,000, then the new goal would be to try to average 6,600 steps/day that week)	<5,000 steps (weekly goal will be to increase daily steps by 500; e.g., if prior week’s average was 3,000, then the new goal would be to average 3,500 steps/day that week)
Daily % added sugars	<10% (maintain)	10–14% (try to reach <10% by next month’s assessment)	≥15% (try to reach 10–14% by next month’s assessment, then try to maintain for another month at that level before trying to achieve ideal range the following month)
Daily % saturated fat	<10% (maintain)	10–14% (try to reach <10% by next month’s assessment)	≥15% (try to reach 10–14% by next month’s assessment, then try to maintain for another month at that level before trying to achieve ideal range the following month)
Daily sodium	<2300 mg (maintain)	2300–3999 mg (try to reduce by 500 mg each month)	≥4000 mg (try to reduce by 500 mg each month)
