Eating well with career and family: Ilena
Ilena followed Kickstart Nutrition alongside her career and her family. Six to eight fruits and vegetables a day sounded like a lot at first. Now it is very normal.
“My first idea was, oh God, that’s a lot. But now it’s very normal.”
Ilena tells her story (51 seconds)
Telling the family
Ilena made sure her family knew what she was doing.
“I made them very much aware that I was partaking in this program.”
The support at home matters, she says.
“The important part is, of course, the support, but you make it very natural.”
First the market
At home, Ilena was already the one who went to the market.
“I was really always the one going to the market and getting all the fruits and the vegetables and the fish or the meat.”
So what they did was simple.
“So basically what we did was I would ask, OK, what are we going to eat? And then I would come back with all the ingredients.”
See it, grab it
What also helps, Ilena thinks: having everything set for the family for that week. And having it at home already, in sight.
“Mainly that you have it at home already. And they see it.”
You’ve got to be able to see it so that you can grab it.
