    My challenge for this week was to eat fruit and vegetables from the rainbow. Here is what I've had this week to meet my goal.
    Red: tomatoes, strawberries
    Orange: carrots
    Yellow: squash
    Green: lettuce
    Blue/Purple: cabbage
    White: onion

    Did you taste the rainbow this week?

    Wow, I LOVE this challenge! My biggest challenge is getting enough veggies and more nutritious foods. I might steal this idea and add it as an optional challenge next week for the team, if that is ok with you!

    Red: Bell peppers, apples
    Orange: None
    Yellow: None
    Green: Bok choy, broccoli, snap peas
    Blue/purple: None
    White: onion, potatoes

    I clearly have some work to do the rest of the week!

    Team Reminder: All weigh ins for this week are due by EOD tomorrow!

    Going out for Valetine's dinner tonight. We are doing tapas so I'm going to fast/ eat minimally throughout the day to try to balance out dinner because I don't want to worry about calories while I'm enjoying a night out with my BF!

    I know today's holiday isn't for everyone so if its triggering or a difficult one for anyone, hang in there! We are all here for you not only on your healthy eating journey but also in life. Consider this team a resource in your support system!

    A bit of a gain, but still within my ultimate goal. I imagine this week will be a nice loss.

    We're at the half-way point and this was a good week despite the long days / late nights at work. I guess the tradeoff of not being able to exercise as much was offset by smaller portions and fewer snacks.
