Welp, it was bound to happen eventually, but I’m surprised it was with this challenge. March’s challenge was to practice yoga once a week and stretch everyday. Sounds easy enough, but I failed at it…miserably. What happened? Read on. To catch up, read this post on my Year of 30-Day Challenges.

Can you believe it’s the last day of February already? This year is flying by too fast, although I’ll admit I’m ready to hang up my winter coat and welcome in warmer weather. February’s challenge was to write down three things each day for which I was grateful. Sounds easy, right? This one was much harder than I expected! So, how’d it go? Read on. To catch up, read this post on my Year of 30-Day Challenges.

January Reduce Sugar Challenge Results

I made it to the end! If I’m being honest, I’ve never been so happy to close out a month. To catch up, read this post on my Year of 30-Day Challenges. January was reduced sugar month and I’m so glad I did it first. I had a hard time deciding if this was a success or failure, but ultimately decided I succeeded in enough big areas to call it a win. So, how’d it go? Read on.

January Reduce Sugar Mid-Month Update

Leah Short — Mon, 15 Jan 2018 14:27:49 +0000

Hi there! We’re about halfway through January, so I thought I’d give a mid-month update on how the reduce sugar 30-day challenge is going. Check out my Year of 30-Day Challenges post to see what I’m doing each month.

Overall, it hasn’t been too bad! What’s great about this plan is that it’s up to me to decide what I’m going to eat when it comes to sugar. I’m definitely eating fruit, but I’m not eating added sugar, refined sugar, or artificial sugar. The hardest part has been giving up my morning coffee and evening tea. It’s made me seriously think about quitting several times…but I’m pressing on!

A Year of 30-Day Challenges

Leah Short — Sat, 30 Dec 2017 13:45:55 +0000

Do you make a resolution for the new year? I usually do, but nothing formal, and it’s almost always to lose weight. Honestly, after a day or two, I forget I made one. This year I’ve decided to challenge myself to something more meaningful, and to do it in monthly segments, so it’s not too daunting. Instead of making one empty resolution to last the entire year, I’m going to try A Year of 30-Day Challenges!

I chose about seven 30-day challenges on my own, but the last few were surprisingly hard. There are a lot of suggestions on the internet and I was pleased to find that I do some of them already, like making my bed every day. I got creative with a few of the later months to combine challenges from earlier months, hoping that it means some of these stick! Will you join me and make your own challenges? If you do, I’d love to hear about it in the comments or use #sohowsittaste30 so I can find you on social media. Happy 2018!
