Something that comes up often with clients when they on ramp with us is “How is this going to impact my kids and their relationship with food.?”

That is a valid question and it is great that you are thinking about it however I’m a little perplexed that that thought has not occurred to us before now.  When we are choosing a healthier focus on food. Why is it perfectly normal to eat fast food 3-4 times a week because our sports schedule is CRAZY.  Why is it perfectly normal to reward and soothe with ice cream or treats when they are happy sad or bored?

Why is it perfectly normal for them to see us gather with friends and family and polish off massive amounts of beer, cheese dip, wings and all the puppy chow you can stomach. How is “this” a healthy relationship with food?

We are not about polarity here at Summit Health. We are not just trying to create buzz with taking a stand what we are about is open our eyes to whats actually going on and changing patterns for life not just momentarily for a goal.  We want you to develop and create habits with food that will positively impact your kids so that they do not have to un-learn habits when they become adults.
