    Today is the last day of the challenge. I have to say I was more conscientious about my actions and the challenge held me accountable.

    I didn't do well on the no sugar...although I was cognizant about my sugar consumption I still had a few bites of something sweet here and there.

    I meal planned this week and saved a ton of money from not buying all the junk food I normally buy impulsively.

    The area I live does not provide recycle services. I have to go the extra mile and haul all of my recycle to the nearest recycle facility.
