[quote=Anonymous]I understand you totally! It's so hard when you have a demanding job and are stressed and active, but not necessarily always in a way that burns calories efficiently. And kids do snack a lot -- healthy snacks or not -- so it's hard not to be constantly around food. I'd suggest trying to cut back your portion size if you know you're prone to snacking along with the kids. Have a smaller lunch because you know you're going to have an apple and crackers a few hours later, etc. And try to fill up on the healthy stuff as much as possible. If you're serving cheese and pretzels, have mostly cheese. If you're serving toast and jelly, forego the jelly. Etc. Can you find more ways to get outside and go to parks now that the weather is getting nicer? Maybe you can add more physical activity into the schedule for everyone -- things like walks that will also give you exercise.[/quote]
