Low Impact: Food
Changing your food consumption from over-processed and long-travel to fresh and local can improve your body measurements, not to mention the the impact it has on the earth.
Here's this week's challenge: Make all of your meals at home with fresh and local foods. Organic is a great way to go, but may be a gimmick to purchase their product. Going local and knowing where your food comes from will always be the best way to go. Try making meals heavy in fresh and in-season produce.

Are snacks and protein shakes exempt?

ReplyDeleteIt would be best to include everything, but we are going to focus just on the 15 meals. We could add extra credit points if you only consume local, fresh or organic for 5 out 7 days. Maybe 5 points?
ReplyDeleteI would be out of luck this week as I had Del Taco on Sunday..
ReplyDeleteDoes Fresh = "All Natural, No Preservatives"?
