CONSIDER YOUR CHILDREN - MONKEY SEE- MONKEY DO !

Fantastic WE are eating in moderation, making a healthy lifestyle for ourselves. We are exercising & eating nutritious food!


šŸ™ŠBUT what are we doing with our children?

šŸ™ˆAre our children watching too much television? Playing video games for hours?

šŸµOR do you encourage them outside?

šŸµDO YOU get on the bike with your kids or walk to the school?

šŸµAre they drinking water or fizz. Takeaways how often?

šŸ˜Are we feeding different meals to what we eat ourselves? Don't you just love the pre packaged smiley face potato concoctions you can buy - what rubbish! what's wrong with a Kumera or Potato? Or pre packed chicken bites, have you read what's really in these things; why are we not just feeding whole foods.

šŸ˜Then lets feed them 27 teaspoons of sugar with some water; fizzy, juice or a energy drink. Yes water can be boring and it's again considering moderation but not giving these crazy sugar drinks every day all day.


šŸ˜ŠIā€™m not saying feed the kids perfection all the time but moderation. Teach them the difference between treat food occasionally & nutritious food predominantly. About fitness & getting outdoors exploring the world together sometimes.


šŸ„°Whilst we spend time considering what we put into our bodies consider what you are putting into your children's.


šŸ„°I wrote this post after reading how obesity in children is increasing & an article Iā€™ll share on Monday about a man who changed his life & his childrenā€™s over 4 years with nutrition & fitness as a focus.


šŸ˜•Obesity equals increased health care costs but sadly unhappy & unhealthy children who sometimes can't be kids playing to the fullest. They're often kids sitting on the sidelines and sometimes bullied.

šŸƒā€ā™€ļøšŸ³As parents we initiate change. We inspire. We lead by example. What example are you setting?


ā¤ļøHave a great weekend ā€¦enjoy the beauty of the world around you! Enjoy with your family.
