What we accidentally teach...

Eat for your health.. Be strong and energetic and capable!

Your body is a vehicle to get you thru this life, no trade ins.
Be the subject of your own life. Live, Love, Do, Be, Run, Play, Swim, Dance.
Don't objectify yourself (or let anyone else do that either)
You are not a trinket to adorn and amuse others.

You are not the object in some else sentence.
You are the subject in your own life.

Yes, learn and teach your children how to be healthy. Yes, set parameters.
But make health more about being strong and capable so you can live a completely awesome life!
Just think what we could achieve with the brain power that we waste on belittling ourselves and trying to live up to other peoples standards

    this ... all too often we seem to teach our children that our self-worth depends on what other people think of us :-)
