Featured success story of the week:
"The website has taught me to limit my portion sizes on food. I am really excited about that and I'm doing more exercise each day. My daughter loves it. She helps me cook, clean, and wash the dishes. This website is good for my daughter and I."

"By using Eat Smart, Be Fit, I have learned a lot about myself and my kids. I have also learned that eating good food and exercising with my family helps. I also feel more energetic from playing with my kids more. Thank you!"

"When I started using this website, I was overweight and the thought of exercise scared me. This website helped me to understand that what I eat and how active I am can change the way I feel. After spending time reading about healthy eating and being active, I decided to try it for myself. I started cutting the fat from my diet and eating more fruits and vegetables. Also, I started taking walks each day to help me lose weight. Since then, I have lost 15 lbs. and feel better than ever."

"The Eatsmart website has been very helpful to me. Thanks to it, I now have a better relationship with my kids. I have two children ages 9 and 12, who love to watch television, and I could never get them away from it. However, when I read the articles in the section, cooking with kids, it gave me ideas on how I could get closer with my kids. Every night and weekends, my kids and I make dinner for the whole family. When we cook together, I give my kids simple jobs that I know they can do. My nine year old son is in charge of making salad, while my 12 year old daughter is in charge of preparing the vegetables and watching her brother. Now, we not only cook together, we also go grocery shopping together. They are in charge of clipping coupons and making a list of food needed in the house."
