Day 7: It’s not a competition but….

Hi William, Leonie from cCHANGE here! What a great first week you've had! You've really committed to it and it looks like the family has too, which is really nice. It's great to have that support around you. You'll have a great collection of recipes after this month. You have learnt about ways to keep your energy levels up and what eating less meat means for the way you shop. Is this something you have done before? You seem to have adapted well so far. I like the reflection in your posts about the practical aspects, the environmental impacts, and the impact on your energy from this new habit change. I am curious, do you find yourself ever forgetting about the challenge sometimes (e.g. on autopilot) or is it starting to feel a bit more integrated in your day-to-day life? It's also interesting that you noticed the rubbish in the hedges. We often find that participants are influenced by each other and may start to pick up on things the other participants are doing. It's hard to not notice things, once your attention has been opened to them. Thanks for a great first week! Looking forward to week 2. Best wishes, Leonie Respond
