lilypad16's Journal, 22 January 2014

This week I'm going to focus on not drinking coke anymore. Also my kids are still in half day kindergarten and prek, so I have two hours of alone time to get to the gym. There's 5 days a week of no excuse not to get to the gym time :)
I bought some salad and other veggies to eat. Also my whole family is on board with this. My husband said he won't by pop anymore for the house. Also we stopped buying junk food snacks for the kids. It's worked out well so far. My kids just automatically went for fruit and yogurt when they got hungry. I really thought it would be a struggle with them, but nope not at all.
It feels really nice to be back in control.

That's great, lily pad !! I know we don't have the assortment of chips or sodas either. My teenagers haven't complained. They are being more healthy too! Best wishes w your gym sch too! Congrats on being in control.

My doc recently told me that sodas are great for cleaning the battery in a car, but do you really want that in your body?? I have removed all sodas and artificial sweeteners from my food plan. I can't say I feel any different, but I know I'm healthier. Congrats on being back in control! That's huge! I just started back myself on Monday and it's amazing how great you feel when you get the junk out of your body!

Good for you! I cringe when I see what some people feed their kids (my family included).

My kids are doing really great with the new healthier food options too. I expected to have a big fight on my hands with them but it hasn't been bad at all. They are loving all the veggies and salads. In fact no one has even complained at all about the lack of sweet treats in the house. They just eat fruit or yogurt. Its so nice that we can eat healthier together. Even my littlest who is 7 and was a super picky eater is enjoying new things and eating super healthy. Its awesome : ) Glad it is working for your family too. We quit drinking pop . Last one I bought was new years eve , and none of the kids have even seemed to notice.
