30 Day Mediterranean Lifestyle Challenge

I pledge to adopt and maintain a Mediterranean lifestyle for 30 days -- March 11 through April 9. At the end of the 30 days, I will assess how I feel and make a conscious decision of how I want to live going forward. This includes incorporating concepts from the New Sonoma Diet book.

Specifically, I will focus on:

Eating whole, unprocessed foods Using olive oil as a main culinary fat Eating a variety of vegetables, fruit, legumes, fish and nuts Eating mindfully and with others Moving more Getting enough sleep – 7 to 9 hours per night Taking time to appreciate family, friends and my surroundings Spending time with people that support my efforts

Additionally, I will attend the Lunch & Learn sessions and read the daily blog posts.

You have the option of participating in biometric screenings that will be conducted by LWS on March 6th and April 17th between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. in the HR area. The screenings will include blood pressure, body fat, waist circumference, weight, glucose, and cholesterol. Both the glucose and cholesterol screenings are venipuncture blood draws and WILL require fasting. Everyone is welcome to participate in the general screenings, but we need a count of the people who intend to participate in the blood draws.

I will participate in BOTH of the biometric screenings that include a blood draw to measure

glucose and cholesterol.

I will NOT participate in either of the blood draws to measure glucose and cholesterol.
