Get the kids involved in the kitchen. When kids help make the meal, they tend to like it better, even the meals with green things in them.

Let them help plan the weekly menu. Give them a few healthy guidelines and then let them make some suggestions. This will make them feel like a rock star! Plus when the time comes to eat it, they can’t fully blame the cook… they helped plan it and cook it!

And take it another step further… let them rate things and keep track of it. My girls get a big kick out rating our homemade smoothie recipes that we’ve come up with together. It makes them want to try new, creative recipes.

Bottom line: the more they’re involved in the kitchen, the better the chance they’ll like the good stuff!

I’m new to these weight loss challenges. I am good at starting diets but always lose my motivation. Jenny was great. Always checking in, giving support and posting inspiration. When I struggled she was understanding and encouraged me not to give up even though I did not lose as much weight as I wanted. She is such a great role model – someone who is not only a coach but in the trenches herself fighting to get healthier. I would like to do another challenge with her in the future.
