Day 14: Review & Your Best Health Ahead
So… this is it. 
After two weeks of healthy living since the year started, we’ve now reached the end of our Healthy Living Challenge. As with all PE challenges, everything has to come to a close, and it’s time to gather what we’ve learned and synthesize them into meaningful steps for our journey ahead.
After two weeks of healthy living since the year started, we’ve now reached the end of our Healthy Living Challenge. As with all PE challenges, everything has to come to a close, and it’s time to gather what we’ve learned and synthesize them into meaningful steps for our journey ahead.
How have you done? Are you happy with what you have accomplished in the past two weeks of the challenge? Did you complete your tasks as planned with each day? If no, why not? What can you learn from your progress in the past two weeks?
Today’s task is for YOU to review YOUR progress, catch up on the challenge tasks so far, and create your healthy living plan moving ahead.
Step 1: Catch Up on the Challenge Tasks
Have you completed the tasks for Days 1–13? If not, catch up on them today!
- Day 1: Drink 8 Glasses of Water
- Day 2: Eat 5 Servings of Fruits & Vegetables
- Day 3: Create Your Calorie List
- Day 4: Calculate Your Total Daily Energy Expenditure
- Day 5: Create Your Ideal Meal Plan
- Day 6: Follow Your Ideal Meal Plan!
- Day 7: Review & Set Your Plan for Week 2!
- Day 8: Get a Great Workout!
- Day 9: Identify Your Healthy Living Pitfalls
- Day 10: Meditate
- Day 11: Identify Your Food Struggles
- Day 12: Practice Conscious Eating
- Day 13: Start Your Healthy Living Guidebook
Step 2: Review Your Challenge Performance
Think about the past two weeks since you started the challenge. Then, answer the following:
- On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your own performance in the areas of your (a) diet and (b) fitness? Why?
- What goals did you set for yourself for the challenge? How have you performed in them? Why?
- Were there any obstacles preventing you from sticking to your healthy living plan? If yes, what were they? How can you overcome them moving forward?
Step 3: Set Your Healthy Living Plan Moving Forward!
Now the challenge is coming to a close, it’s time to create your healthy living plan as you move ahead.
- What are your key goals for your health and fitness moving forward? Review your 14-Day Healthy Living Plan and add on/revise your tasks/goals as needed. If your goals are the same, stick with what you’ve written.
- What are your key action steps to ensure that you’ll 100% achieve these goals? Look back at what you’ve done/learned from the past two weeks, especially the answers you wrote for the tasks on Day 7 (Week 1 Review), Day 9 (Healthy Living Pitfalls), and Day 11 (Food Struggles). Identify the steps that will help you to achieve success in your healthy living plan in the long term. Then, start acting on them!
Next, Follow Your Plan for Day 14 (Take Pictures Too!)
What tasks have you set for Day 14 of your 14-Day Healthy Living Plan? Do them today!
Take pictures of your healthy meals – breakfast, lunch, dinner, and mid-day snacks if any — and share them in the comments section. 
After all, a picture tells a thousand words, and when you share photos of your healthy meals, it inspires others to eat healthily and gives them ideas on what healthy food they can have too!

Post your initial comment sharing your results for today’s challenge task, then add on throughout the day as you have your breakfast, lunch, dinner, and/or if you’re doing any workouts. Attach photos of your meals by clicking the image icon on the bottom left of every comment box. As you add on to your comment thread, be sure to click on the reply button directly below your original comment so that you reply to your own thread (as opposed to starting a new thread).
Share Your Results (and Photos!)
Share in the comments section!
- Your reflections for the challenge
- Your healthy living plan moving ahead
- Your progress with your healthy living plan today
- Pictures of your meals

Do check out the other participants’ comments too and share a word of encouragement or two. We’re all in this together, so let’s support each other as a group!
PS: Since I always post my day’s progress in the subsequent day’s recap, my progress for today (Day 14) will be posted in the comments section of today’s task (as I always do) and shared in tomorrow’s roundup. I’ll also be collating my thoughts for the entire challenge in tomorrow’s roundup as well.
