Dinner is when my family finally sits down. We live a crazy colour coded calendar where we feel like ships passing most of the time. Food is always handed out in tupperware containers as someone goes out the door but dinner is when we slow down. It means we eat late. We normally sit down to a meal between 8-9pm. I know it's late but sitting down together is more important to us.

Habits form faster when reinforced with positive emotion. Laughing with family, sharing stories is one way to do that.

This week I want to focus on the ratios on your plate. Making 1/2 your plate veggies. Bright colourful, rich veggies with 1/4 protein and the rest fats and grains. This is the biggest change for many people, it's also the key to feeling full.

No recipe suggestions today. Instead tell me in the comments if you sat down as a family and took a little extra time to talk and share stories.
