Sonrisa Sonnleitner 10/25/2017 9:46 AMLast day of the Eco-Challenge and I love the stats they give you on how our actions make a difference! Let's get a couple more challenges checked off the list! -
Sonrisa Sonnleitner 10/24/2017 9:00 AMAhhhhhh! One more day folks! This is a great time to complete some of those one time challenges!! I am feeling really good about my progress but still need to make ti to a farm and pick something.... a pumpkin perhaps? :) -
Sonrisa Sonnleitner 10/19/2017 3:16 PMI love, love, LOVE the way I feel when I get more sleep! It makes waking up at 5:30 that much easier to get to the gym.... and going to the gym makes me more productive during the day.... which means I am more likely to do meal planning or visit a farm! Whoa! All of our decisions are interconnected guys! :) -
Sonrisa Sonnleitner 10/16/2017 1:06 PMI have to admit that I slacked a bit this weekend with any formal exercise (I walked the dog and did work in the garden but it doesn't seem right to count that). However, even on a lazy Sunday I was able to commit to eating two vegetarian meals and getting more sleep! YOU GUYS, YOU GET POINTS FOR MORE SLEEP! Come on! -
Sonrisa Sonnleitner 10/12/2017 9:15 AMHello Everyone! I have to say, there is some real satisfaction clicking the complete button on some of these tasks/goals! I have been attempting to work out everyday for at least 30 minutes for a few months and I love that there is a challenge on here that helps reinforce my existing goal! I pretty much sign petitions everyday from the various networks I am involved in but now I get to check a box saying that I did it! Tonight I plan on getting a little crazy by re-watching food inc. with my cousin who has never seen it. WOOOO WOOOO-
Jennifer Sue 10/13/2017 9:20 AMI'm going to watch What the Health this weekend...I've heard it is pretty eye opening! Hope it doesn't freak me out to bad! LOL -
Ben Rousseau 10/12/2017 5:46 PMNice, Food Inc would be a good one to re-watch, and share. That inspired us to quit fast food all together!
Keep up the good work Sonrisa!
