As my personal health goal was to eat a balanced meal at least once every day, I have been searching around the kitchen every day to look for food. I have been fully completing my goal since spring break started! The strategies I will use for myself to maintain
healthy eating in the future will simply be maintaining my current eating habits because I now have balanced meals (more vegetables) , and my family already chooses healthier selections of foods. This is a picture of my after school snack today. I cooked udon noodles with lots of different vegetables including carrot, spinach , and choy sum (most were leftovers) and a egg for the meat/alternative portion. I had a cup of milk earlier today so I didn't include that food group for this meal/snack.

It's a long weekend which means I've been missing out breakfast for a few days ahahahahahahh. I try to make up for the missing meal with lots of food for brunch. I eat leftovers, fruits, whatever's in the fridge... This afternoon I had a balanced meal again since it's my EAT goal: bread, rice, beans, banana, yogurt, tomato, and water.
4.) My healthy goal setting influences me when I see a fruit at Queen A. Because my goal is to have a balanced meal at least once a day, it makes me ask the children during our little talks whether or not the food is a fruit or vegetable. it's influencing the way I lead the sessions. When we played a game to learn about the food groups at Queen A. , I wasn't surprised that the children had not learned much about it. So, as an EAT leader and a person, I proceeded to explain and teach about what I knew. It's not often for a youth to have the opportunity to teach/pass knowledge onto children, and I found that I enjoyed doing so too. This experience had revealed to me something that I have passion in, and will have a lasting effect on me.
