WWOOF IN EUROPE
Hey all! Looking for any recommendations for organic farms/retreats in Europe that take volunteers (wwoof or workaway). I will be in Copenhagen and Berlin but can travel anywhere for a great experi...
Can I only do one challenge at a time?
-
annefood @xlalsbddn great question. Yes, you can only do one Challenge at a time. It has been shown that people are better at forming long-lasting habits when they tackle one element of their diet at a...
Coffee
Is there anything I can add to coffee that isn't sweet but still has a semi sweet taste? I've been working on the no soda challenge and want to again try the avoid sweetened beverages challenge. I'...

annefood @NicoleDanielle I put a splash of this unsweetened coconut almond milk in my coffee when I'm at home https://www.califiafarms.com/toasted-coconut-almondmilk - it has a naturally sweet and creamy...

lenaaaap I have to disagree with darkchocolatepeanutbutter! Not anything consisting liquids count. You can't drink coke or something . It only counts water and unsweetened tee. But a smoothie is also ok...
More then one challenge?
-
Emy I'm also new here, but I think you can just do 1 challenge at a time

annefood Hey @cassidyinks and @Emy ! You are correct—currently you can only do 1 Challenge at a time. It has been shown that tackling one aspect of your diet at a time is the best way to form new habits.

lilaviolet I have completed the coke challenge but how do I do another challenge?

DietID_TeamDietitians
Yes of course! If you had a candy or sweet, just use a free pass or a half a pass to keep track. And if you run out of free passes, no worries! You can always start over. The most important thing...
