  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Use a Reusable Mug
    Maybe you've heard how good it is to switch from a single use coffee cup to a reuseable one but it's just hard to make the switch. Think about what stands in your way of making this a habit. By identifying the challenges, you can begin to work through them to have better success in taking this action. Knowing the difference you are making, how does it make you feel?

    Continuing to use the reusable Starbucks cup for my three cups a day.
    Also using a non-disposable water bottle at the gym each morning.
    For my weekly meal plan, I have made use of plastic storage containers. It saves waste but also makes it easy to grab and go each day.

    How can you incorporate other personal values (like quality time with friends or spending time in nature) into your exercise routine?

    My time spent at the gym is all with training groups. We laugh a lot while we are sweating our way to better lifestyle

    Food Weekly Meal Planning
    An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Does this surprise you? Where would you rather use this money?
