Where I am inclined to disagree is when it comes to the current food pyramid. I have to wonder how much of that pyramid is backed by solid research and how much is backed by the wheat lobby.

When I was obese, my doctor gave me the food guide pyramid to follow and said I was guaranteed to lose weight if I followed it. I followed it to a T, made sure my serving numbers were on the low end and my serving sizes were appropriate. I ended up gaining more weight!

Although we disagree on the pyramid, we do agree in principle: we have a responsibility to teach our kids how to live a more active lifestyle and how to eat to fuel their bodies properly. I commend you on your efforts!
