Parents’ comments on changes made

“A complete change in food bought in the home”

“D. now does exercise daily and is able to choose healthy food with no fuss”

“We are more open to talk about problems, even though they might not relate to food”

“We are making more healthy choices, and being less directive with our child as she seems to be making the choices”

“We watch portion sizes and add more fruit and veg to fill up instead of potatoes and meat. Drink more water too. The portion sizes was an eye opener!”

“We have changed in what we eat, the portions eaten, calories taken and exercise more – particularly going for walks”
