RESULTS:

  1. I actually ate more than just one meal on most days because I had the food ready!
  2. I ate healthier
  3. I didn't go to chick-fil-a / cougar eat much - spent less money
  4. I wasted less food - trying to portion
  5. I shared some extra food with friends
  6. I learned some new vegetarian dishes I like!
  7. I cut down on wasteful wrappings - I even bought a lunch box to use instead of a ziploc bag/grocery bag every day!
  8. Meal prepping is awesome & leads to me living my best life :-)

Temple Project

For my religion class, I need to spend an hour a week on a project, and I chose to go to the temple. Here are weekly updates: WEEK 1: 9/13 - Service with no time This week, I pondered how I can best serve others with my very limited time. One thing that came to me is I need to stop wasting so much time. I haven't been able to do much this week because I've just been so busy with my homework and work and life in general. Looking back, I threw away multiple opportunities to serve because I had to work on homework. This weekend I made it a point to get ahead on homework so that, when given opportunities to help and serve, I can happily take that opportunity and not shirk other responsibilities I may have. WEEK 2: 9/20 - Love and appreciate all Life is good! I have a lot going on at school, but I'm keeping up, and I'm honestly happier than I've ever been during the semester. What a time! I have a goal to love and appreciate everyone I can. In the tem...
