Day 14 - SOCIAL IMPACT - 30 Days No Ultra Processed Food Challenge

I thought the hardest part would be evenings. My family and I are snackers and usually eat ice cream or cookies after dinner (I know that's not the healthiest - we don't do it every night ;) ). But I found it quite easy to find a replacement. Whether that was a healthy soda, fresh fruit, homemade bakery items like zucchini bread... It was very manageable.

The hardest part so far is the social impact. The BBQ's that I went to but didn't eat at, the celebratory ice cream after recitals... I mean, I was THERE for the celebrations but by not eating it just felt awkward and weird.

I'm going to be really pondering about the balance I want after this 30 days. I don't want to go back to how things used to be... but I do want to participate in social settings. I want to find moderation and a solution that fits best for me.
