So far so good, very pleased with our overall efforts, Jason and I have decided to weigh in on Saturday morning to allow a bit of leniency Saturday evenings, being back at work is helping heaps to, evenings are my dangerzone, my pig out time, so being busy and not in my own kitchen is great!


Very proud of our middle child, Dylan, he loves his food and is a chubby little man, but recently he has said hes been feeling uncomfortable with himself and is noticing that other kids his age are smaller etc, so with a little encouragement (defiantly no pushing) he is being 150% more active, has stopped snacking completely, is eating fruit, having smaller meals, and and is walking with Jason every other night, almost a week in and you can see his stomach is pulling in and the self esteem is raising dramatically, pretty damn impressive efforts for a 10 year old! Actually i think his efforts and helping mine and Jason's, we want to set a good example and are also following Dylan's smart choices... win win id say!


On the weekend i plan to track down and try out some low point muffin recipes, i think they'll be handy for lunchbox's when school goes back, only last night i was thinking about everything that goes into the lunchboxes and about how much less they are are eating at home, so im thinking i might toss the chips and high sugar bars for low fat yogurts, low point muffin, a piece of fruit and a healthy roll, sounds like a plan :o)

Nights were my danger time too, but ww simply filling is keeping me fuller for longer and I find I am not getting the "hungries" like I used too.

Love your lunch box ideas. My kids loved cheese & crackers & yogurts.
