Are you joining us for the 12 Months to a Healthier You Challenge? If so, it’s time for our weekly check-in to post our progress.

June's Challenge:

We're focusing on developing the habit of a better morning routine. I encourage you to create a simple and doable morning routine and to stick with it.

My Morning Routine Challenge for June

I created a new morning routine (see it here) and am working on sticking with it.

I'm also hoping to keep up with January's habit of exercising at least 4-5 times every week, February's goal of eating a big salad at least six times a week, March's goal of drinking 8 glasses of water a day, April's goal of cutting back on sugar, and May's goal of getting at least 7.5 hours of sleep every night.

This Week's Progress:

So I still have a long way to go when it comes to my morning routine, but I’m encouraged at the progress I’m making.

Here’s the rundown of how I did on my bedtime/wake-up time:

Sunday night — 10:15 p.m.
Monday morning — 5:15 a.m.
Monday night — 10:35 p.m. (I took a 30 minute nap during the day, too.)
Tuesday morning — 5:15 a.m.
Tuesday night — 12:15 a.m.
Wednesday morning — 6:53 a.m.
Wednesday night — 12 a.m.
Thursday morning — 6:45 a.m.
Thursday night — 11:30 p.m.
Friday morning — 6:30 a.m.
Friday evening — 1:15 a.m. (couldn’t sleep — not sure why!)
Saturday morning — 7:15 a.m.
Saturday evening — 11:15 p.m.
Sunday morning — 7:15 a.m.

So overall, I still have some work to do — especially when it comes to getting to bed earlier — but I’m making some good headway. And I’m encouraged by that!

I hit my water goals six of the days, exercised four days, ate a salad every single day, and didn’t have sugar once (yes, can you believe it? I’m quite proud of myself! ;))
