I blame myself for Bubbi and Pepe's intake because I am with Bubbi especially most of the time. He usually eats and drinks what I do and most of the day, we're laying around watching Netflix on my computer. When his mom calls him to exercise with her, he complains of having a headache and a hard time breathing. My kind of exercise partner. But seriously, my kids and I HAVE TO eat and live healthier.
I feel I am the one to blame for all their "junk" intake. Why is that Polynesians (yes, they do) feel the only way to show love to their child is to feed him/her with junk food and soda, etc. Back in my day, I always envied my Tongan classmates eating their big packages of chips and cookies. I know I need to stop!
Who do I suppose we will do this?
Well, tomorrow is Monday and ev1 knows that Mondays are "start my diet" days except we won't call it a diet or we will fail by lunchtime. We are definitely going to eat breakfast. That's it? It's a start. Many people start their day without eating breakfast. With Jenalei's schedule, she really needs to eat a hearty breakfast! We will eat oatmeal, boiled eggs, and a piece of fruit before she leaves for a FULL day of school and activities. Kids now days are super busy. Once Peps leaves home, it's like she goes to work from 8a-5p.
We will try to eat more veggies and fruits, and add an exercise. At least Bubbi and I will attempt to do this tomorrow. My Bubbi is getting puka (fatso) and I feel guilty for leading him down the same path I have traveled. I hope for the best for both of us!
Happy Monday all!
