BDI

Thank you, everyone, who participated in this challenge! I applaud all of your efforts to make little changes in your daily lives! You're all Yumm!mazing!!!!!!!

Since starting the challenge, I have been much more diligent about my meal planning. I find that I am spending more at the grocery store, which was initially startling, but I am spending less overall by: (1) not eating out as much (or at least more intentionally); and (2) not wasting as much in food that goes to waste during the week.

Jason and I volunteered with Friends with Trees this weekend. We planted trees and shrubs in a wetlands area. It was rewarding, but a lot of hard work. I was impressed with all the kids that participated.

I got a cool reusable straw from an exhibit at the Jordan Schnitzer art museum going on about plastics - I definitely recommend this as a beautiful, educational display. (You could choose from a straw or reusable take-out utensils if you fill out their survey.)

Hey everyone! We are in the final stretch of the challenge! I am impressed with everyone's participation! GO TEAM!!!

I have been reading about an ayurvedic lifestyle recently, which is a holistic approach to mind, body, and spirit. Has anyone seen how the changes they have made during the challenge so far have made an impact on other areas of your life?
