Just because it looks good, doesnāt mean it is. Most of the āfunā food you see, is not good for you! We talked about how food isnāt just about tasteāitās about fueling our bodies to live the life we want. Thatās why we donāt embrace all the snacks. Itās not about being āmeanā or āstrict,ā but about showing love through the choices we make. ā¤ļø Thats why when we get the candy and cookies during the holidays at events, we enjoy a few, and discard the rest. Hereās what I told them: 1ļøā£ Food is fuelāwhat we eat powers how we feel, think, and grow. 2ļøā£ Food is loveāitās how we take care of ourselves and each other. 3ļøā£ Health is lifeāwhen we treat our bodies well, we can enjoy more of what matters most. Itās never an easy conversation, but itās one worth having. Especially with the flashy colors and advertising designed to get our kids hooked on fuel that could have seriously long term consequences for them. Weāre teaching our kids how to value their health for the long term, and thatās the ultimate act of love. š Itās not always easy, and we tend to work one ingredient at a time. But itās definitely worth it! I learn just as much as they do along the way.
