    I guess I will add one more feed for extra points. Thanks to the ecochallenge I made a doc. appt. and set up a plan with my medical professionals for the betterment of my health. This was my first physical in years!! I think I am still alive and sort of well!!

    Oh, well.   We are all winners if we have worked hard to make changes that are good for ourselves and the environment!!!!

    Is this a fair challenge?  At 1:22 pm, (late lunch today) we have beat them by points per person @ 251 points. They are approx. 170 points per person. They are a winner by having more members, especially if they recruited those members during the challenge!

    We have bought metal straws! Though we rarely use straws, it is nice to have these. Bought one for each member of the family.

    Quite frustrated. actually! My team leader is helpful, I'm sure it is my error, however I could not add new challenges. Each time I tried, the response told me I must delete an old challenge. Upon trying that, it said I'd LOSE POINTS if i did so...! Five challenges is far too low. Why make a limit?

    Based on a post Peggy made during the ecochallenge, ​I'm exploring some sustainability/health & wellness apps that we could use as a college and I'm checking out the Shine App for Joulebug. Right now I'm using the free version.  I don't know if we'd use the paid version or not. I requested a demo for 9:00 am next Tuesday if anyone is...

    Is it Friday yet? Meeting my ecochallenges has helped me feel accomplished, so there's that.

    I'm using my handy-dandy double insulated beverage container with a sippy lid filled with ice cold water! I'm set to stay hydrated.

    I didn't ever have a fully refined sugar day, but I did lessen my overall sugar intake substantially. Add that to the physical therapy and a few short walks and I lost a couple of pounds. I know if I really avoid refined sugar and white flour though that my overall health goes up and my blood sugar levels lower and don't spike as often.

    In a couple of weeks, I'll be relaunching the food waste/compost program at dining services in our cafeteria area. The main difference between these and the old bins are that these do not accept compostable plastics (except for the can liner). The bins are emptied daily into an area behind the kitchen. These items are bagged and so do not...
