How Did You Do with the #LISTERINE 21 Day Challenge? Our Challenge Recap

I was compensated by Johnson & Johnson Healthcare Products Division of McNEIL-PPC, Inc. and The Motherhood as part of my participation in the LISTERINE® 21-Day Challenge. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this post are my own. 

Remember a few weeks ago when I shared all these great LISTERINE® products with you and encouraged you all to take the 21 Day Challenge? Well I hate to admit it, but I didn't do very well on this challenge! While I made a good attempt, starting a new routine is hard and I pretty much failed miserably!

The LISTERINE® 21 Day Challenge encourages participants to commit to rinsing morning and night for 21 days. In addition, you can choose an expert in nutrition, fitness, or home organization to help you establish healthy home habits, and can receive emails reminding you of your challenge goals. The emails have been really great to remind me---the problem is, that if I don't get right up and do the rinse, I forget. Then I get distracted. Then I forget for good.

Next time I do this, I think I'll set up a little caddy with my toothpaste, toothbrush, floss, and rinse all together in one spot. This might help me remember to include it in my routine more often. It might also help to make myself a check list to tape on the mirror and check off each time I rinse.

After sampling the products LISTERINE® sent and then heading to Walgreens to buy more, I found that I prefer the Freshburst flavor over the others I tried. I tend to like a tamer mint than the others in my family so I've claimed this bottle for myself! In addition to their many wellness products, this week Walgreens has select quart size varieties of LISTERINE® on sale for $5.49. It's a great time to buy a large bottle and start your challenge!

Here's one person who is on the road to success! As I mentioned before, Lynzie has made teeth whitening a goal and is really pleased with the progress she's made with her whitening toothpaste. 

As far as the other part of the challenge, the healthy home habits, I really like getting those emails. I did find several of the articles on organization to be helpful and I love it that I have to answer whether or not I swished for the day before I can see the full article. I especially liked the truths that my trainer reinforced---like keeping a clean desk to increase productivity. This is a truth that I know---but sometimes I just need a reminder, you know?
