Mini-Challenge General Instructions
Team Challenge & Jackpot participants can receive additional ribbons by completing six mini-challenges! These fun and motivating week-long challenges encourage team bonding and staying on track with fun, new ways to stay healthy holistically: food-wise, fitness-wise and emotionally!
Mini-Challenge: Grocery Store Scavenger Hunt
Your Challenge: Whether it's understanding serving sizes, reading ingredients lists, or understanding macronutrient information, reading food labels is an important skill when it comes to weight loss and general healthy living! Below you'll find a list of 5 grocery store items for your scavenger hunt. Your challenge is to find the items and snap a picture of their labels. When you post the entry, name which item's nutritional content most surprised you.
1. Potato Chips
2. Ready-to-Eat Granola (in the cereal aisle)
3. Trail Mix
4. "Low-Fat" or "Fat-Free" Cookies
5. Ranch Salad Dressing
Submitting Your Entry:
- If more than one teammate is participating, one teammate should collage individual teammates' photos together into one entry
- An easy way to share your pix with your teammates is to upload them in your team huddle!
- There are many free phone apps for making picture collages (such as Canva, BeFunky, or PicMonkey)—use any of them!
- Only one person needs to submit the team entry and only one entry should be submitted per team
Sample mini-challenge entry:
1. Click "Upload" to browse for your photo on your phone or computer, or, drag your photo over the upload button
2. Enter your team name and a blurb about your entry
3. Click Add/Update
4. View other teams entries!
Fine print: Only submit one entry per team. Additional entries will overwrite earlier entries and additional ribbons will not be awarded. Entries unrelated to the specific topic of the mini-challenge will be removed and the ribbon revoked at the discretion of the challenge Host. In these cases, teams will be notified and may resubmit their entries to earn their ribbon.
If your team can complete the mini-challenge tasks together, great! If not, choose one teammate who will complete the challenge task(s). Although it’s OK for each mini-challenge to be completed by just one teammate, we encourage as many team members as possible to complete the tasks together and support one another!
