665. How To Help Your Kids Have A Healthy Relationship With Food


Listen Later

Raise your hand if you were part of the “clean plate club” growing up. 

Or maybe you saw your mom go through diet after diet, trying to shrink her body to feel better about yourself. 

Fats were demonized. Carbs were thrown in the trash. Or maybe food was scarce altogether. 

Many of us know what it’s like to model a BAD relationship with food, but how do we turn this around for our kids? 

As a mom of three, I’ve worked really hard to undo the cycles that were modeled for me so that my kids can love their bodies and enjoy and utilize food. 

Here's what we cover in this episode: 

1. Start with Your Own Relationship with Food 2. No More Strict Rules 3. Avoid Punishment or Guilt Around Food 4. Address Preferences, Not Picky Eating 5. Teach Food as Fuel 6. Model Open, Healthy Conversations  7. Genetics and Body Image 8. Revisit and Revise Conversations
