[quote=Anonymous]My kids LOVE mac & cheese, meatballs, pizza, etc. They do eat healthy foods for regular meals, including seafood, lean proteins, lots of vegetables, whole grains. At parties, they'll go for the treats like mac & cheese. They know those are "sometimes foods", not daily but also not prohibited. Both are teenagers now. They have sports or other physical activity 8-12 hours per week. One is 90th percentile height and 50th for weight. The other is 70th percentile in both height and weight, solid muscle. They eat until they are full. They enjoy treats in moderation. I was the same way growing up. At 45, I'm 5'8", size 8, physically active, great blood pressure / cholesterol / blood sugar / etc. Don't judge kids' health by what they eat at parties. [/quote]
