Healthy Snacks

[Lefty]

We have had discussions for years about what to do about our diets when the kids came along. We both are junk food junkies but I have a high metabolism and my wife just doesn't indulge. So when they came along, we decided we would switch off to fruits and veggies for snacks unless the kids aren't around. Honestly, I have become quite fond of having fruit instead of candy bars and cakes. I didn't think I would like it but I have and the kids don't know anything different. We do let them have some candy but it's an occasional treat instead of an every day thing.

Have you changed your diet after the kids come along?

I really do not eat snacks that often. I think we are lucky with our daughter, she likes to eat strawberries and other fruits. We usually keep some dehydrated for her in the pantry.

Honestly, no! I wish I did or I wish I could. I'm the one that takes the kids for ice cream or out for pizza. I do eat healthy but I'm the fun Uncle so we go snack!
