Food Wars parts of book

As  an adult, I find it hard to control what I eat. I recently attended a wonderful dinner at a friend’s house. The menu was not what I ordinarily eat because of the content of the ingredients.

But I was with friends. We were all sitting around the table laughing and talking and enjoying each other’s company; consequently, I ate too much of the wrong food.

Our children are put into this situation every day. They have less control over what they eat and we are the mature adult.

Simple things to remember:

Think before you eat.

Think what you are eating?

Who made this food?

Eat small portions.

Eat small portions every 2 – 3 hours.

When eating hamburgers, French fries, and coke. (Small size)

Exercise.

What Do We Do?

If there was an easy answer to this question I would be a millionaire. We need to stand back and take a look at this problem from a child’s perspective and then make changes.
