I love this because Phil and Amy understand why our kids are in the situations that we find our families in. They get that we are so busy, and that most of the time, it's just easier to go to the drive-thru and (sometimes) let our kids play video games. They don't harp on us as parents and call us failures. Instead, they give us the tools to make a difference. It's not only our responsibility to teach our kids to be more physically fit than society dictates, it can be one of the best lessons we ever share with them.
I love that this book isn't condescending or judgmental, but is informative and totally helpful. Besides listing facts and stating the problems of kids, their sedimentary lifestyles, and their corresponding weights, Amy and Phil give us the tools and motivation to change things.
This guide provides science, menu planning advice, activity ideas, as well as thoughtful discussion to get your entire family involved. It's truly a must-have resource for any family, even those without kids who are considered overweight. It will be a gift that will benefit many generations. Highly recommend!As a mom of 7 that was extremely overweight and just finished a weight loss journey of my own by losing 72 lbs over the last 7 months, this book really spoke to me. I want to make sure that my kids don't go through what I did and that I can help teach them some good tools to keep them from ever reaching the extreme high weight that I did. This book is a wonderful tool for that. The first half is really good to know educational information and the second half is how to implement good habits into your life over the next 90 days with your family. Very easy to read, well laid out and encouraging this book is designed to help families make realistic changes that will set them up to live long lives together. I will be going through this book with my kids this year. I hope many families read this book to get a hold of the wisdom that Amy and Phil have gained the hard way so that their families don't have to go through the same thing.
