I grew up in a generation of “you don’t leave the table until you finish what’s on your plate”.
Some how that has become – if my kid isn’t going to finish that snack than I will because we just can’t waste food. Cheezits, Doritos, popcorn, Ruffles and even the good snacks like fruit and veggies add up. A handful here and a handleful there. It’s more than you think and it will not only sabotage your efforts to lose weight but will make you gain unwanted poundage as well.
Now we haven’t even talked about ‘real meals’.
How many of you are finishing off those last bits of dinner for the little one? Again…it adds up.
Tupperware, Ziplock bags or the trash!
Don’t ruin your efforts to lose weight as certainly don’t set an example for your kids that they can’t put food away for later.
Leftovers are a terrific way to implement eating smaller more frequent meals throughout the day.
Go snack free for two weeks and see what happens!
Be snackless. Lose weight. Win.
