Families need to fuel themselves properly and support each other to stay on track. Mood swings, behavior issues and depression, can be associated with what you are or aren’t putting into your body. “If we take a little time each week to prepare, plan and pack it up, we will develop great eating habits and we can feel energized all day”, says Marissa. Nutrition is the foundation of health and wellness, and it the most important aspect of feeling energized, focused and motivated. “We all know, if mommy doesn’t feel good, no one else feels good. So, be a bit selfish and take care of yourself, and you will be able to empower others around you, develop great habits, and conquer your fitness goals”.
