6. Frozen Meals
When life gets busy and hectic, especially during kids’ sports seasons, it is easy to turn to frozen foods as a quick dinner for the family. But be aware that they are high in fat content and sodium levels.
Luckily, there are lighter frozen meal options that are starting to become more common in stores. Try those if you need a meal in a jiffy or add your own veggies to frozen meals to boost their health factor.
7. Soft Drinks
Soft drinks are extremely high in sugar content and are large contributors to weight gain.
Some drinks have diet versions that use artificial sweetener but it may be better to try for some sparkling water with fresh fruit; it’s still a sweet, but healthier, treat.
8. Pizza
Whether it’s frozen or restaurant made, everyone loves pizza in all of its unhealthy glory. This family-loved meal is filled with sodium, carbohydrates, and cholesterol.
Don’t worry though! If you can’t convince the kids that there will be no more pizza, or if you yourself don’t want to give it up completely–try baked at home pizza! This way you get a memory and a good meal for the family.
