　　Morning everyone! Hope everyone is having a better Monday than Garfield! It has been a whole week since I started posting challenges! YAY! Since it is Monday and thus the start of a new work week... It will be harder to get healthier things to eat. Because that depends on where you work, when you work etc. So I will give you an easy challenge today.
　　
　　Today’s Challenge: Make a healthy swap!
　　
Say you work at a fast food joint. Instead of getting what is offered there, bring your own healthy lunch. You could swap out chips for apples and the like. Just make a yummy new swap!

    I'm going to find this one tricky - I follow a 5:2 lifestyle and today is a fasting day. I think the only healthy sway I can make is to change one of my cups of black coffee to a herbal tea! I'll let you know.

    Morning, I'm new and just jumped in today. It must be kismet because my workplace coworkers eat out every day and today I brought a huge bag of salad and a few cans of light soup to get me through the week. My swap is eating a packed lunch today in place of eating out. Good luck everyone!!!

    I'm pleased with myself - just swapped my mid-afternoon coffee for a glass of sparkling water. Tick!

    Bah! I will do my best NOT to drink the can of soda I brought with me to work. I'll swap it with a cup of tea. :)

    I've been trying to get all the junk food from valentine's day out of the house! By giving it away or eating a small amount a day til it is gone! Instead of eating that, I swapped out for a cup of yogurt.

    You all came up with some good swap ideas!

    I missed my exercise class this evening due to an over-run meeting. Gave up and flopped on the sofa for the night...

    But then swapped my lethargy for a quick 20mins wii step!
