Rave: I wanted to send a shout out to the Monster Vegetable Gobblers on Monster Road. I like their weekly “Words of Wisdom” and the group cheers crack me up! Thanks for keeping me smiling!

Rave: Getting points for going to the farmers market prompted me to go to the new market at Seattle City Hall today. I walked to there with a coworker (additional extra credit points!) who was very excited about the fruit selection. We tasted our way around the market before making our purchases and I left with a bag of fruit and a bunch of flowers. It was a fun way to take a break at lunch and I probably would not have done if it wasn’t for the Live Well Challenge so thanks for the motivation!

RANT: It is too hot to do any physical activity. I should have picked the Eat Smart… than I could have had ice cream which is a smart thing to eat when it is hot.

RAVE: I like having the Couples team option. It is keeping me motivated to be active and watch what I eat because I don’t want my husband to get more points than I do!

RAVE: People at my worksite are really excited about the Challenge. One team captain has already organized a recipe swap and a weekly trip to the farmer’s market trip for her team.
