Ben's actions

Planning

Track My Wasted Food

I will track the food that my household of 5 throws out so I can learn what we're wasting and why.

COMPLETED 1
DAILY ACTION

Planning

Kudos Cookbook

Add a recipe to the Wagner Cookbook on Kudos. Help share fun recipes with coworkers!

COMPLETED 1
DAILY ACTION

Storage

Be Smart About Food Labels

I will learn about food labels and not throw food out just based on the date on the package, but instead check the smell and color to see if it has gone bad.

COMPLETED
ONE-TIME ACTION

Shopping

Eat Before Shopping

I will resist impulse buys by eating a snack or meal before going grocery shopping. Those who grocery shop on an empty stomach spend 64% more than not-hungry shoppers.

Participant Feed

Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.

To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?
