izzypup68's Journal, 21 July 2017

I have returned from my world travels. I had a fantastic trip with the family to the UK. Unfortunately for my belly, this trip involved no small amount of meat pies, fish & chips, and sticky toffee pudding.

Since returning home, I have stocked up the house with fresh fruit and veg and working out a meal plan. I have tried hard to balance the kids' desire to eat all of their comfort foods with some healthy choices. One move was to buy a big bag of "super greens" at costco and I plan to add a side salad to everything. My son was less than thrilled by this development, but he dutifully munched on his kale--I just ignored the faces he made while he did it.

I hope all of my fatsecret friends are having a great summer so far!

How old is your son? My daughter is 8 and I've finally gotten her to try new things, even just a bite of various fishes and greens.

You got your protein. That's what you need to keep the hunger from taking control of you. Then you're off the rails...

My boy is 13 and I have an 11yo girl. I was a very picky eater when I was a kid but have branched out considerably as a grown up. My hubby and I wanted to avoid that and our kids do pretty well, at least trying whatever is offered to them. Compared to many of their peers, they are adventurous eaters. Their adventure doesn't often include kale...
