The pyramids

I decided to draw up a food pyramid in the hopes of improving the family's eating habits.

I'm sure you've all seen them...bottom heavy with carbs and veggies moving up to an infinitesimally small fine piece at the top.

The kids have both, at one time or another, done it at school and had great fun drawing it...but that's as far as it ever went!

So, now we are trying to eat more of what we should be eating, and less of the stuff that tastes divine, but is not quite so good for us! I intend doing a wee bit of research into individualising it for each of us and see if I can keep us all on the straight and narrow!!

Thomas and Megan were extremely good today, counting up everything they ate....no treat allowed until all other groups have been eaten in the right quantities! Long may it last!!! It would be great if we could make it a habit, and carry on with it even after the novelty of the chart has worn off!!

Today I am grateful for new endeavours.

Now I must count up all my nibblings and see if I qualify for a wee sneaky treat!!!

Gratefully yours.
