    QUESTION TO THE GROUP: Tomorrow (Tues, 6/7) marks TWO WEEKS done of the challenge! So only 1 more week before we have formed a new habit that we'll hopefully continue for life! My question is - do you feel you HAVE formed a new habit? Has this challenge helped you? If so how? If not - what would be more helpful?

    Yes! It's definitely helped me. I'm trying to do more every month and this was just the little push that I needed. And yes, I do feel like I've formed a habit because even if I'm tired, have lots of work to do or want to look at my favorite show....in the end, I have to make myself a priority and that feels good!

    Day 14

    Insanity: Core Cardio & Balance

    37 minutes

    360 calories burned

    Didn't have a lot of energy this morning. Probably because I didn't eat enough yesterday.

    Today is actually my 30th consecutive day of working out but I feel that this challenge has helped me get out of bed early and get active. There were some days that I just couldn't do it in the morning but I did workout later on during the day. This working out every day thing is something I hope to continue for several more months. I know that you need to give your body time to rest so I turn down the intensity on Sundays by doing something less sweaty.

    Day 14 (Tuesday 6/7)
    Heated yoga, C25K and a 30 min walk
    135 mins
    806 calories (yoga was MFP; C25K and walk were 577 cal on HRM)
    Yoga was hard but I really like it; the C25K was brutal in 85 degree heat (what will I do for real SUMMER??) but I did IT! and I enjoyed the walk post run plan

    I really like it. I love to post that I DID IT! :) I have formed a new habit of working out every day (even if it is just a walk or yoga) and I plan my day around my exercise. Thanks!

    Day 14:

    I didn't get ANYTHING done today! ARGHHHH!! :cry: And I truly HAVE made a new habit, so instead of feeling like I "got away with" something, I feel like I cheated myself by not exercising today. So as I said in my blog post tonight, I set my alarm to get myself up early to walk b4 my bro leaves for work tomorrow :yawn: so that I can get my walk in b4 I'm responsible for watching his 6 yr old girl. :happy:
