Portion Size Me – A Kid Driven Plan to a Healthier Family

I’d like you to meet Marshall Reid, now a sixth grader, who excels in his communication skills. His hobbies include cooking, Tae Kown Do, playing football. canoeing and most importantly, playing game on his Playstation. This wonderful book was inspired by 10 year old Marshall, who was fed up with being overweight and misrable.  Marshall, with the help of his mom and family, decided to redifine his life by making choices based on “portion size me”  instead of the commerical driven  “super-size me“. Bravo, Marshall!!   No strict diets.  just a workable lifestyle for the entire family, and it can become a lifestyle for your family too.

This is a lovely and easy book to read  and through an assortment of tips and personal anecdotes, Portion Size Me brings children and their families together to make conscious decisions about what they put into their bodies. Alexandra (Mom) and Marshall developed a fun-filled project with six achievable goals to help create positive, long-lasting, healthy behaviors, including:

·         Eat as many real foods as possible

·         Read ingredients

·         Pause before you eat

·         Get moving

·         Help out in the kitchen

·         Watch portion sizes

 

With easy-to-follow, adaptable recipes and kid-friendly tips, your child will be eager to take charge in the kitchen, and in life as well.
