You know that you don’t want your kids to develop the same body image and food related issues that you picked up on from your mom but HOW do you make sure they don’t, especially when you’re actively trying to lose weight?
It IS possible and that’s exactly what I’m talking about with today’s guest, Michelle Maidenberg.
Learn how to communicate with your kids about food, exercise, and their bodies in a way that sets them up for a healthy and sane future.
(And make sure you listen until the very end when Michelle shares how to make sure that a little slip up with your diet doesn’t turn into a complete fall off the wagon!)
