So these 2 things caught my attention last week. The sudden social media attention on UPFs again. I’m seeing all these nutritionists and health gurus showing us how they would NEVER feed any of these foods to their kids. And then my son was invited to a doughnut decorating party 🥳 🤔
It’s not easy is it? The balance of wanting to do all the right things for your family but enjoying your life at the same time guilt free.
UPF - of course avoid when you can. We try to avoid all packaged processed foods at home/in packed lunches. Cook from scratch when you can. I’m not going to lie, it’s hard and sometimes we just need a break! But it’s what you do MOST OF THE TIME that counts. We still need to have fun and joy in our lives.
(Disclaimer: my son didn’t want to eat the doughnut. It’s too sweet mummy. My work here is done 🙌🏽)
