Decluttering - what a challenge that is!  Today I sorted a box of music and selected about half of it to recycle - sell on ebay or pass on to friends who are music teachers with students who could use it!  

Ok, so I started out doing a little bit and being annoyed about the constant reminders to check in.  But then I got more involved in learning and discovered that the resources on the site are incredible.  I added a few more challenges, learned a lot more about how to contribute to saving our planet, and even started making my own yogurt to save plastic (yes, it wasn't one of the challenges, but seemed a good thing!). Had fun!

I did the eco-challenge last year and it helped me change habits regarding food waste. Doing something for two or three weeks is a good way to think about old habits that would be good to change. I am a pescatarian, but I need to eat more vegetables and fruits, so I chose the challenge to add 2 cups of veggies and fruits each day. Some days I do it. When I am rushed for lunch I tend not to make my quota.

I'm finding it difficult to add two full cups of fruits and veggies each day. Missed the target two days this weekend. I find the main problem is not having enough fruit or lettuce at home, so I am buying more produce. The other problem I've noticed is when I eat out. I will have to have a large salad either when I go out or for the meal at home that day. Most restaurants don't offer fruit. Today my lunch on the run was 2 bananas and my dinner a large Caesar salad. I'm determined to do this and make it a habit.

Not too bad, but difficult to keep up the exercise when I am sick!  Feeling better today, hope to be well tomorrow.  I do like the incentive to do the 40 minutes of exercise daily.
