I met a gentleman last night who is interested in losing weight. Not because he is super huge, but he "wants to eat healtier for my children". This was very touching because since offering this weight loss method in our clinic, we too, are eating cleaner and healthier for our children. A recent study stated the children of today have a shorter life span than we do. One in three children are overweight or obese. I find this very sad. Children not only inherit many of their parent's disorders, but obviously their lifestyle choices as well.
Start today by offering your children healthier snacks. If it comes in a box don't buy it. Have fresh fruit and veggies around the house. Make your own cookies. Not only are they probably healthier, but it is great bonding time with your children. My sons LOVE baking and cooking with me. Is it a bigger mess? Yes, it is a HUGE mess. But they love it, I get to spend valuable and irreplaceable time with them, and it is healthier!
